The quote, "What's the last thing you remember?" on the new teaser is from Yesterday's Enterprise, it's by Jean-Luc Picard when he's questioning Rachel Garret in sickbay. Coupled with some of the prototype spoilers we saw on another post, I think it's obvious we're getting Alternate Universe II.

Given the quote, I'm hoping for more crewmembers from the USS Enterprise-C, and maybe a play engine to make you want to use that ship. The USS Enterprise- Alternate and her crew? That might be better off in another set, because I'd really like to see the missing characters from All Good Things, and I just can't see the set having two [Fed] Datas, Picards or Geordis, [1E-AU] or not .
I would love it if the Krenim showed up in this set, and it would support the upcoming [1E-DQ] sets, but I'm not holding my breath. We've seen an early version of Archer from Twilight, could there also be a Future NX-01 and it's ragged crew to go with it?
Maybe the Timeship Relativity will join the game and let you recruit temporal agents from all of these broken timelines... Could we see the Future Defiant for captain Nog from the Visitor? Elder Jake, Bashir and Dax? More characters from End Game? Or maybe the promo cards from Past Tense will find a home in this set.

So, what do you want to see in this set?

I hope the set focuses on the true alternate reality/weird stuff and not so much on time travel, since we already have so many "time travelers" represented in [1E-AU] because of the eras.

I would like a play engine for AU cards such as those.

I would also like to see some kind of weird events and interrupts whose purpose is not entirely obvious, but still have some kind of use.

My impression from the fact that they asked us all about how to word the various alternate Enterprise-D crew names (from Yesterday's enteprise) previously was that there would probably be a card more like Federation Flagship: Relaunched or Make a Difference Again rather than a time location to tie a Yesterday's Enterprise themed deck together. Seems like it will be something that nullifies your Fed-Klingon treaty and forces you discard all Klingons while it is in play.

Although since the federation was doomed in that episode, it should conceptually require you to discard a fully staffed Enterprise-C with a leader aboard, discarding the incident before you can win the game (or to avoid a massive penalty, like -30 points).

I'd like to see a stand alone Time Travel themed set myself. Carpenter Street, Past Tense, Time's Arrow, First Contact, Voyage Home, etc. Yeah, we've seen some things from all of those, but it'd be a good chance to expand on them, give them real purpose in the game. But in the end, I'll take whatever I can get. :cheersL: :cheersR:

I would like to see this too in another set.

A time location named "2024, California" would make for a nice Picard tie in if we ever do cards from new trek. It would be good to see Gabriel Bell and Adam Soong playing to the same time location.

TrekCore would seem to agree:

Image
Before seeing the larger image I just couldn't get past the idea that I was looking at Spock's brain, although this is never pictured in the episode of the same name. Just couldn't get past that without someone nudging me to see it another way.

If this set is what I think it is, I would have just gone for the card image from Temporal Rift and made it smaller.

I could be wrong, but I thought the name of the set was Yesterday's Enterprise and so would heavily feature cards from that episode, particularly those similar to the ones long-ago released in 2E.
