Hello all,
I'm new to the forums, though I have been lurking around the site since I discovered it a month ago. I used to play back when the game was still in print, (Premiere through to Voyager sets), but eventually other things grabbed my attention and I gave up playing. Now I am getting back into the game with a friend of mine who is also a bit of a Trekkie, and we have played a couple of games with starter decks printed off from here.
I'd like to try to expand on the starter decks we're using, though we'll be sticking to Premiere, AU, Q-Continuum and the TNG Block virtual cards to begin with. I kind of remember the rules, especially after looking over the rulebook on the site. However, there are still a few things that are kind of hazy. This has led me to posting here to ask a question to more experienced players.
Aside from the colour of the cards, is there any real difference between the different affiliations? It seems that Romulans, Klingons and Federation decks can all do pretty much the same thing? I know Borg are completely different (and we aren't using them yet). I'd like to build some casual decks that offer something unique when playing. I have some Ferengi cards as well, and I can probably put together a Non-Aligned deck if I try. Does anyone have any suggestions to help differentiate between Reds, Greens and Blues?
Regards,
StuartL
