Welcome to Fill in the Blank Season 2: Chain of Command!
Each week I will post the collector’s information for one of the cards in the set’s cardlist. Contestants are free to create whatever card they see fit for that slot in the cardlist, keeping in mind the surrounding cards. As the contest progresses, the cardlist will become more and more defined, guiding the contests’ choices.
The theme of our set is Chain of Command. Not every card has to fit the theme, of course, but it’s something to keep in mind when voting. Speaking of voting, as per normal each contestant will vote for one of the previous week’s entries (with the exception that as the contest runner, I will vote ONLY in the case of a tie).
Please remember to vote for one of these entries in your post, referencing the entry’s letter. This vote in particular will greatly shape the set, determining if it focuses more on nouns (personnel and ships) or verbs (pretty much everything else).
This week’s contest is...
Card #36! Last season we jumped up to card #1, so we’re going to go the opposite direction this time. Usually this slot will hold a ship, especially in a set focusing on the chain of command. But, some sets do not have ships, so a late-affiliation personnel is not out of the question.

Interrupt
To play this interrupt, you must command a personnel with Treachery. While that personnel is attempting a mission, if your opponent is about to play an interrupt, stop him or her to prevent that and remove that interrupt from the game.

When your personnel aboard a ship is killed by a dilemma, you may discard a card from hand to place a personnel from hand aboard that ship. That personnel joins the mission attempt.
