Your will marches us forward, as we continue Will of the Collective VIII. In this community-driven card design process, each of you lovely men, women, and non-binary friends work together to make a card - from start to finish. In this edition of WotC, we're closing a broken link. So far, you've decided to make Gagh, and after a tie and a nail-biter of a run-off, we've decided on a card concept:
Now, 1E has a lot of card types, and I don't think all of them apply to this situation. I've curated the list of card types down to a few options that I think will work well and give good options for us moving forward. For each of them, I'm going to give you some information about what the card type does and why I think it might be a good fit. Fair warning - I get wordy when talking about design theory, so I've hidden the text below each card type. Click the (Show) text to read if you wish to.
Here are the options:
Equipment
Event
Incident
Interrupt
Objective
These are the options I feel will make a fun and interesting rest of the challenge: Equipment, Event, Incident, Interrupt, or Objective. I have my own thoughts an opinions on which card types fit, but I have tried to exclude them from my writeups above. This choice is yours, so make it the way you want to! (If you're curious why another card type wasn't on here, feel free to ask in a reply or a PM.)
Voting will be open until this poll closes around 2:00 PM Pacific on Sunday, November 15. Remember, we're doing approval voting, so vote for every option you approve of and would like to work on. The card type with the most votes wins, although if there is a tie, we'll go to a traditional run-off.
Let's pick a card type!

A card that provides rapid, situational access to a range of situational Klingon-themed cards, reinforcing the affiliation's flavor.The next step in our process is to choose the card type. I've chosen to pick the card type first, before accepting nominations for game text, for two major reasons. First of all, it will let me better plan out the timing required for the remainder of the process. After all, we don't need to allocate time for lore if we're going with an incident or objective. Secondly, it will help inform the types of game text you submit. Any time we can narrow down a blank canvas into something else, that makes the final product better. It's entirely possible that we could have started with game text, and then picked a card type to match. I personally think that's a little more difficult and it's easier to do it the way we are, by narrowing down a card type first and then submitting game text options. So that's why it was decided to be done this way.
