Well Broken Bow has been out for over a month now so I suppose I should do my 2EBC update.
In summary 24 out of the 90 cards in Broken Bow were 2EBC conversions.
Broken Bow brought new cards and mechanics to the Starfleet affiliation, and Starfleet related conversions made up over half of the total number of conversions in the new set.
Three of my favorite ‘healers’ were converted (Phlox, Amanda, and Sean) and of course their healing abilities were reigned in with the conversions.
This leaves Starfleet with 7 unconverted 2EBC personnel, the most significant of which is her Highness, Empress Hoshi (Beautiful Archive Portrait).
Aaron and I are currently playing around with the new MACO cards to see what we can do with them.
Other significant conversions in Broken Bow included the two AU Borg drones.
Another note of interest is the conversion of Fiona McKenzie made This Side of Paradise the first 2E expansion to have all its 2EBC cards converted to 1E format. Yeah… I know… This Side of Paradise only had one 2EBC card.
An addition to the 2EBC card pool that might have gone unnoticed was the recent Virtual Promo alternate image that came out for the unconverted Worf, Son of Mogh Klingon card.
As far as non-conversions go,
With the errata of Temporal Vortex (actually taking it back to its original First Contact text) Temporal Conduit is now my new preferred method of traveling to and from time locations.
And I love the new non-stealable Earth
Countdown to Discomendation
Ok… now the latest update for the upcoming dark day for the 1E game… Project Discomendation. It is a pity that Discomendation will also ruin the long running history of the 1E Open format as being the STCCG format where you can actually use all 1E cards.
300 of the 799 2EBC cards have now been converted.
This currently leaves us with 499 unconverted 2EBC cards in the 1E card pool.
Here are the updated 2EBC spreadsheets as of May 7, 2017.
