It's Wednesday! We're more than halfway through the week. Since we are over the hump, let's look at a question!



Let's talk about headquarters. They started all boring in the first set with just letting you paly cards and not much else. Energize kicked up the headquarters game with lettings the Maquis download an event. The third set gave us Terok Nor mixing in the various groups associated with that faction. While the other headquarters after that were neat, Decipher did really not give many opportunities beyond making sur everyone had a place to play.

Early on, The Continuing Committee did not have a lot of headquarters. That changed with the Relativity crew, a Bajor for Bajorans and the foot has come off the gas pedal with other affiliations getting in of the Headquarters game.

Not every affiliation has benefited from a new headquarters, though. Look at the poll below and let us know which affiliation should get a Headquarters next?

So you want a HQ that lets them download Adapt?

I don't think any of these need one, but I guess Klingons are one of the ones with only a vanilla HQ atm so I voted for them.

I honestly believe that "who?" is the wrong question.

I think it all comes down to what cool, affiliation specific mechanic can we come up with and then the question will answer itself.

Random thought: a Gateway [H] that let's you report [Pa] and [Fut] (And ONLY [Pa] and [Fut]) cards.

That's probably broken, but the idea seems fun.

:thumbsdown: - Definitely not Starfleet - they've already got two, and both have none standard game text.

:thumbsup: - what Ben said - work from the mechanic first, not the icon (and even if it comes up Starfleet, put a line through it, and go back to the drawing board).
