We've already looked at this card for those interested the original thread is HERE. Below find the original post slightly edited. The recent Interrupt: Moment of Triumph can help with the Biogenetic Weapon problem mentioned below.

[Eve] 1 To Rule in Hell
To play this event, you cannot command a headquarters mission. Plays on your Ceti Alpha V. When a card instructs you to place a personnel on your headquarters mission, that personnel may be placed at this mission. When you command four completed [AQ] planet missions and have 120 or more points, you win the game. You may play [NA] Genetically Enhanced personnel and equipment at this mission.
29 V 26

Positives: Creates an whole new sub affiliation.

Negatives: Hamstrings the new sub affiliation by not giving them easy access to ships.

Thoughts: When the Player uses this event they still have the option of solving a space, a planet and having 100 points to win. The Player can win the game with either victory condition. The real problem here is how to get a ship. Everything depends on getting Joaquin, Superhuman Lieutenant in play, so that when Ceti Alpha V, Forge Settlement is solved the Player can get a ship. Which has got to be in someone's discard pile. It all depends on getting the right cards at the right time which is hard to set up. There are other tricky things that can be done to get a ship, but it shouldn't be this hard. If the Player has Joaquin in play and wants to protect him during the first mission attempt they could use Marla McGivers, Superior Woman to stop him before the mission attempt to keep him safe, but once again it depends on getting one of the Khan Noonien Singhs in play. There's not a wide selection of personnel for this deck, but Udar, "Smike" will allow Arik Soong, Father of Many to play as well. Events like Biogenic Weapon can lock this affiliation out of the game. Make plans for that if this sub affiliation is going to see use. 8 out of 10.

Notes: I imagined reworking the 1E Revenge Is a Dish Best Served Cold to solve the ship and Event problem for this HERE.
