INTRODUCTION
Welcome to the seventh season of the monthly Thematic Challenges! For those who are new to this, this challenge was started in 2011 by MattgomeryScott and was rebooted by me in 2019. Every month I will announce a topic or theme and everyone may create a dream card during that month and post it in the month's thread. Voting will be done during the next month. Everyone is invited to join and we appreciate every single submission. At the end of the year, there will be a little bit more demanding challenge and we will announce the overall winner of the season.
This season I would like to give polls a try to vote for the entries. I hope we will get some more votes and overall participation as everyone is welcome to vote for one of previous month's entries.
And as always, feel free to contact me as I am always looking for feedback and ways to improve this.

THEMATIC CHALLENGE VII 05: TALK LIKE YODA
Create a Star Trek CCG card in a language other than standard English or that references languages. May 21th is the not very well known Talk Like Yoda Day and since I always loved Decipher's humour and creativity, it is time to do our own. Decipher started with Qapla'! and in some sort also Dixon Hill's Business Card and The Continuing Committee picked this up and created later Sternenflotten Phaserpistole the Defiant Volé as a release promo for The Maquis (and if you know cards from Second Edition, please send me a message and I gladly add it here, too.) I totally see no reason why not to use any translator to help you creating your card or if that is even not possible you can also create a card that is about language like for example Linguistic Legerdemain or in a broader sense also The Whale Probe. In case you post a card in a different language, please also post the English translation as a note to your entry.
DEADLINE 31th May 2020
