Okay, let's play another round of 2 Truths and a Lie about the upcoming expansion A Private Little War. Here are three statements about this expansion and its contents. Two (2) of these are absolutely true, and one (1) is a lie. Your job is to guess which one is the lie.

- There is exactly ONE Artifact in A Private Little War
- There is exactly ONE Event in A Private Little War
- There is exactly ONE Objective in A Private Little War

Vote for the option you think is a lie. This poll will be open through the weekend, and you can change your vote at any time until it closes. So after you vote, make a post in this thread arguing your point and why you think it's a lie. If you guys get the right answer, I'll give you a spoiler!

Enjoy and have fun!

It's funny that I spent months and months with this set in rules review and I have had no idea which were the truths or lies on any of these.

Good luck, gang. Please win a spoiler. I apparently need one.

There will be an artifact. So one artifact is true. Second, we will get Excalibians in these expansion, so that is possible that there will be some [Obj] related to them. From the other side, Event is the most universal card int the game. I think there will be a lot of Events or there will be none. One Event is a lie.

You did well and the majority correctly picked the lie. There is exactly one (1) artifact, exactly one (1) event, but there are three (3) objectives. Good job sussing out the lie!

Here's a spoiler for you - but you'll have to come back tonight to see the image. I don't have them available at work, and I clearly forgot to do this last night.

[Art] The Great Teacher {ST: TOS}

Computer interface from Sigma Draconis VI. Ancient technology which temporarily imparts knowledge, spanning topics such as neurosurgery, astrometrics, philosophy, and card game rules.

And stay tuned for round 3!

OMG. The possibilities... Wait til the [Bor] or [1E-DQ] [Fed] / [NA] Borg get their hands on that!
One will be a monster.

Combo: [REDACTED] + Tom Paris + Naomi Wildman + The Twin Mistresses of Evil + U.S.S. Voyager = Navigation x20 technically all on Paris.

Mind you, there's no in game use I can see for Navigation after 5 of the skill, but it's still cool.

FGC-47 Research is a use for 6.

There is no current in-game way of reassigning it. So if the personnel with it on (just like any other card) dies, the *spoiler* goes with.

That's actually what I was thinking of, but thought the minimum span of the mission was 1 offhand.

It's 0, so you are correct.
