Chain of Command #15: The 11th Hour

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).

This week’s winner is… WeyounsLastClone!

Vote: E

My Entry:

[Evt]

1 Battle Bridge

Plays on your ship with three or more staffing icons (limit one per ship.) When an engagement begins involving this ship, you may destroy this event to choose one: download a Maneuver Interrupt; download this ship's corresponding Commander and place him or her aboard this ship; or name a personnel involved in this engagement. He or she cannot be killed during this engagement.

“Note in ship's log that at this star time, I am transferring command to the Battle Bridge.”

Notes: Note that it's three or more staffing icons, as the Enterprise-B had a Battle Bridge.

All the Best,

Mattgomery Scott.

P.S. GooeyChewie, just noticed currently your and my entries are both card H. :shifty:

Maneuver. Plays in your core. When an engagement begins, each player may reveal a number of cards from the top of their deck equal to the number of [Cmd]

icons on his or her ship(s) involved. Until the end of the engagement, each player adds the total cost of their revealed cards to the attributes of one of their ships, then places each revealed card on the bottom of his or her deck. If you win, you may return this to hand to unstop and restore the range of each ship involved.
