Forgive me for being thicker than the large print version of the complete works of Charles Dickens, but I don't get it. Do you mean something like "Jean-Luc Picard, Mot" (from "Starship Mine") or "William T. Riker, Rivas Jakara" (from TNG's First Contact)? If that's not the case, could someone just give me quick example of what you do mean?
Jodmos
Benjamin Sisko not playing Benjamin Sisko

however, our Chairman says "LOTS of wiggle room" so I guess that includes:

Deanna Troi, "Spirit" of Captain Bryce Shumar

And my personal favorite:
Anastasia Komananov

Okay, so people have got some pretty clear ideas what this means.

But what do people make of this? Me, I'm drawing a blank, but then I'm still having trouble with some of the more basic cards and concepts (like Aftereffects). :cry:

Think old school 1E. Plays on table until end of next turn. Nobody can play interrupts (except Kevin or Q2, of course.) Oh, and is a little bit of eye candy. ;-)

Me, I think that the picard from the inner light would be pretty cool.

What, you need to refer to your binder to find the Goddess of Empathy? ;-)

I know she's not exactly a main character, but I've always wanted to see a version of Keiko O'Brien possessed by a Pah-Wraith.

It'd also be interesting to see the characters from Far Beyond the Stars.

Still in the vein of DS9, we could go with a Gabriel Bell version of Sisko.

Another one I'd love to see would be Thomas Riker from TNG (rather than the Maquis version).

Once you get to thinking about it, there's a plethora of options for this concept.

YES! Captain Proton MUST be the new card. They were the only 1E cards I collected online. 2E missing the only thing I really liked in VOY is a crime.

I've been waiting awhile for an Anastasia Komananov in 2e. I thought it would be a good way to keep the Kira tradition going without taking a precious Bajoran spot.

And the best part would be that she would get the [E] icon! (Being Russian and all...) ;-)
