Unhappily tricky to fix, since those apostrophes have to get unescaped then reescaped. I think the new website handles this correctly, but the current website has gone back and forth on where escapes are added or stripped enough times that I'm dizzy.

Anyone who wants to take a look at the code is free to give it a shot. PM me.
UPDATE: Maelwys or eberlems appears to have fixed this while I wasn't looking.

Some of those traits were fixed. Not all. The Jem'Hadar First trait is still needing repair.

Maybe some others too.

Could we mark the "no bc anmyore" somewhere in the rules section? Small document perhaps saying "ended in february because stuff" - returning players might have a hard time finding this information

Cross-post: from here to here.

Good idea. However, a remark on this might be suitable foremost for the FAQ page, which Jadzia is currently gathering inspiration for.

Which rules section?

Point is that the rules document is so big that you might take ages to find the bc rule - only to find there is none, leaving you with the question: can I use it? I´m not in the mood to look through the Organized Play guide to see if its there.

so: is it anywhere? It could just be a small sheet under the "rules resources" saying they no longer may be used.

Also -- is it something that we'd really want in the rulebook? Is it not more a matter of OP/card pool/format? (Format perhaps being something that partly -- or even fully -- belongs in the Rulebook.)
I think it should at least be (also) addressed in the FAQ.

This seems like something that would theoretically be a perfect fit for my hypothetical "What's Changed Since I Last Played in XXXX?" feature, which I toyed with a few years ago but petered out.

Maybe with the new energy around the forum, it would be worth trying that project again.
