I attempt a mission with the Delta Flyer and hit Aphasia Device with 6 personnel, I then dock on Voyager what happens to the people on the Delta Flyer?

They can't leave the Delta Flyer and continue to be disabled. The rest of the Voyager crew is unaffected.

Interestingly, it doesn't work the other way. If Voyager hits Aphasia Device, then Delta Flyer docks on Voyager, the Delta Flyer crew has entered the quarantine, is affected along with the rest of the Voyager crew, and may disembark from the Flyer to Voyager if they want.

So I guess this works the same for classic enterprise and Columbus.

I would work, basically, the same for any craft carried by another.

I do wonder, though -- where in the Glossary can we look this up? Where did you find it BCSWowbagger? (I could think of various places where to look for it. Too many for comfort.)

Carried ships in the glossary. Although something in that entry confuses me. It says the crew of a carried ship is part of the crew of the mother ship. So can Voyager crew help cure the aphasia device???

[commdecker]

If the AD is on Voyager, then the people on both ships are part of the crew, and can cure it together.
If the AD is on the carried Flyer, then the Voyager people who aren't on the Flyer are not part of the Flyer's crew. However, they can board the Flyer, at which point they are part of its crew (and subject to the quarantine), and can help cure it.

(I stumbled across this while looking for something -- and cringed.)

This card. I hate it. So much. In our local play environment, it works too well against my sloppy, late-night, hasty play.

This is why my opponents have won too many games.

"C'mon, do I really need to wait for 2 MED and 2 Bio before starting an attempt? That dilemma caught me red-shirted the last three games. This time, the roll of the die shouldn't work out that badly for me. Right? "

Code: Select all

Turns over dilemma.

"Oh. It's you again. The Device. Really."

And then, today, next came The Swarm. 3 turns later, crew dead. Those were the last 30 points I scored for the duration.

I'm banning it from our play group.

No, but seriously, how does this card perform in current-day OTF Virtual/Complete environments? Still fairly good? (I mean, it's not THAT much to ask for its cure requirements, I know... it's just that I keep attempting too soon, haha!)

Yeah if you are "meta feeling" something like that is coming then prep for it.

Grab this guy with a Q's Tent and then stick him in your crew with TWM LOL

Surmak Ren

Dr. McCoy (Through the Looking Glass) and The Doctor can both more or less nullify this as well, by virtue of having the skills needed to cure it by themselves.

If I had any of those outside of my binders, this would be sage advice. I hadn't looked at them this way, yet. Thx.

Yeah make sure you understand the difference between cure and nullify if you use the Fed guys. Only Ren makes it just go away without disabling first.

It's pretty terrible, Medical Crisis is a popular dilemma with harder requirements so playing a deck not good at passing it is a bad decision.

Unless I am mistaken though holograms cannot become disabled by Aphasia Device, so The Doctor still stands as a way to handle it regardless of the disable.

And Dr. McCoy can also do what Surmak Ren does as he just replaces Aphasia Device with any dilemma requiring MEDICAL.

It mostly sees play now when boosted by Pawns.

Are disabled personnel eligible for random selections to die (e.g. Casualties)? I assume disabled personnel are not eligible for random selections to become disabled.

Typically no, because they are not present:

Personnel who are “stopped,” disabled, in stasis, or under house arrest form a separate crew or Away Team during your turn.
