1. No one has really discussed that using a BB offers additional benefits than battle, namely the access to a set of dilemma that requires them to work. Some powerful combos come out of this using tactics that are not useful to battle, for most decks, Isolytic Burst is the main one that comes to mind and also The Breen one that was banned in OtF. There should be a balanced cost for this access so it’s something to consider if there is a free version of the battle bridge.
2. In regards to balance, has the Committee considered making some tactics Unique and some ❖ ? That may be a way to achieve balance and diversity in building the side deck and bring back cards like the banned breen one. Every affiliation has a tactic that is native, so to speak, that could be ❖ and the speciality ones could be unique. Or maybe limited to x copies,
3. As a bonus thought, it also might be prudent to restrict some of the cards to certain affiliations. It doesn’t make much sense for a deck that doesn’t battle to be stocked with isolytic bursts and breen ___ because of how well they damage ships with dilemma. That could not have been the intended use and may also promote appropriate side deck building diversity and a cost-benefit balance for playing certain cards.

You know, I was actually fiddling around with this, and thought about putting it in my little concept up there, but then I thought "nah, that's too complicated, Traditional players will hate it."
Battle Bridge Door: Weak & CheapThat would include the new proposed "Generic Damage" tactic but also Crimson Forcefield, Close Quarters Combat (a nice boost for ), Evasive Maneuvers (we need more defensive Tactics like this), Plasma Energy Burst, and T'Pol/Soong Maneuver (those last two are just basically accidents, but happy accidents).
Seed one (for free)* on Battle Bridge side deck (any number of cards). You may only use cards that have a printed ATTACK bonus of 0 or less.
EDIT: I ALSO like the idea of other versions of BBD that force you to focus on specific subsets of tactics, like the "Target" tactics, but I feel like those additional versions of BBD should probably cost a seed slot. The free version of BBD should be pretty limited, in order to make the tradeoffs work.
