I think this whole Reman thing was made just for me. Exactly my deck style and play type. Now, what I need are ❖ Remans with Leadership, Diplomacy, Honor, and Anthropology, please and thank you.
Why would you expect universal Remans to have those skills?
I think Diplomacy would be difficult to justify, but Anthro, Leadership, and Honor aren't.
The two reasons I'd offer are:
[1] Lore, both game and movies. Remans have to have some leadership structure beyond Shinzon. There should probably be some universal officers in sub-command structures if they have an operational military. I'm hoping for a universal "officer"-classed reman with leadership + something. I feel
Venoxis probably could have leadership given that he has a
![Command Star [Cmd]](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==)
. Someone had to been giving commands to throw troops into the meatgrinder besides Shinny. Remans are certainly aware of their own history and universe history, so Anthro should be added somewhere. And the fact that they follow orders and sacrifice themselves so willingly for their cause suggests behavior like
![Klingon [Kli]](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==)
or
![Dominion [Dom]](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==)
which indicate some level of Honor.
[2] Game precedent. I Remans, to me, feel a little like the MACOs. Across the multiple ❖ MACOs, all the skills are more or less covered with, off the top of my head, no gaping holes except maybe Exo, but that's well covered in other ways. Remans lack Anthro, which is a huge problem given the most commonly played dilemma. Maybe that's intentional, but they need it. Overall, I get that remans should be tougher to play, but not impossible to come up with 3 personnel with Anthropology that would turn a dilemma that everyone else could probably pass even eventually, into a hard wall for Remans. If we don't get multiple sources, hopefully there's something like
Security Drills on the way to at least give them a chance.
EDIT: For example, here are a list of dilemmas that may be hard walls for Remans right now:
Primitive Culture
Local Trouble
Justice or Vengeance
Jol Yichu'!
Incentive-Based Economics
I Hate You
Aggressive Behavior
Unorthodox Preservation
Shaka, When the Walls Fell
A Pleasant Surprise
Faux Pas
Implication
Tense Negotiations
The New Resistance
