Wish I could be there to meet you too.

SD will not be able to attend this one for a confluence of factors. Good luck to everyone who ends up being there.

We will miss our South Dakota comrades for sure, as it sounds like we will have other Invaders storming the castle that is FFG. Mags and Tim have pre-registered, so it looks like I better call the banners of the greater Frozen Chosen to give them a proper Minnesota Nice greeting! :cheersL:

I just realized this is when we're heading down to South Carolina to visit my in-laws. Since I cannot be in two places at once, I will need to bow out. Sadness.

I should be able to make this. :D
Am trying to build a "Where Opportunities Are Made" [1E-DS9] [1E-Fer] deck though and it is going TERRIBLY. Classifications and useful skills don't even exist it seems. :?
Can I get a 50 point head start if I show up with that deck? Will still lose every game by 50 points I am sure. Not sure if serious...

As I won't make this one, coach K is available to anyone who wants a hand trying to solve any design problems.

Don't forget that you have constant draw drain from wormhole transit, your ships can't stand up to modest WEAPONS fire, and your key reporting facility has a mere 20 SHIELDS.

Worst deck I ever played.

Old tourney report, if there's any insights there that might be useful: https://www.trekcc.org/tournament/index ... entID=7986

EDIT: I will say that Unrelenting Lust was built to help this deck, and I can only hope that it has, at least a titch.

Alright, after working 9 months for my current employer, Cardinal IG, in Fargo on second shift , I just got moved to first shift this week. I’m tentative at the moment, but, if I can get a deck together for 1E and 2E, I’m interested. No art projects for me, gotta figure out a solid deck for each. I’ll try to persuade Benny to join us for 1 of the events, most likely the 1E one as I think he detests 2E considering it’s not moved past being Legacy/Vintage in Trek comparison.
