Right?

Isn't that a bit too good? :shifty:
Well, it's an event, so can be destroyed, so that's something. And Reject Earth only lets them capture one alien a turn, so if you manage to keep dropping non-Humans off on Sector 001 HQs, you should be fine.

And you have to flip Luna to Mars, which cuts off cards like Homicidal Experiment.

Also, take note that the exclusion is mandatory... please let me Fractured Time your people away.

That is so much better than what I was thinking about (Drumhead and Unorthodox Recruitment).

You could also use Limited Welcome, since it persists on top of the mission and you get to use it each time.

Of course, Terra Prime Forever doesn't protect the [NA] Humans that they might run. So those will get through.

We might have problems with this card in future.

What are you people making a fuss about? It's just a poor man's Damaged Archer. You can only use it from your second mission onwards and it's easily destroyed.
If anything, this card is too weak!

It costs like 20 less counters than all those.
But it does require a completed mission, Sector 001 clear of non-Humans, and giving up on cards like Homicidal Experiment--and is mandatory where those others are optional.

So you throw 1-2 in a deck and slaughter someone who can't answer it, vs. build an entire deck around the concept. It's not like solving a mission isn't part of every deck's strategy. It's basically a two cost event that requires your opponent to dedicate a ship and perhaps multiple personnel to deal with it.

If this card puts more Fractured Time into decks, that's a win.
