Simple question about Subspace Accident.

Assume you don't have the requirements it calls for and it grabs a personnel.

Is there any way to retrieve that personnel before it gets discarded at end of next turn? Would bring the requisite skills (3 Astrophysics OR 2 Physics and 2 SCIENCE) let you save your highest personnel, or is it unstoppable and just held in play a turn longer so you can't replace till your following turn?

No, there's no traditional way to rescue them. Unless you pull out an unrelated trick like Mysterious Orb or 47th Rule, they're just going to get discarded on a delayed schedule.

I believe you could use Samuel Clemens' Pocketwatch to make the discard occur this turn and then play Nanoprobe Resurrection.

Agree with the first part, but the person discarded would then be buried under the Watch, no?

You’re right.

Okay... play Samuel Clemens' Pocketwatch...
Play Parallax Arguers — and have opponent let you play an Event which is )Res-Q...
Play Devidiian Door to play personnel...
...or play Holodeck Door (if they are a Hologram) to download personnel...
...or play Ready Room Door (if they are the matching commander) to download personnel...

It isn’t easy but it can be done...

Or, if you want to accomplish this in OTF, wager the pocket watch with Dabo . Once your dabo game is over, you can nanoprobe for your missing personnel.
