As the Days Pass I Discover... Destiny Just Can't Be Ruled |
Introduction |
With no rest for the wicked, the assembled Champions dove right in to Act II of our Fargo double feature in the form of an OTF constructed event. Going deep into the achievement vault once more, I gutted TNG Romulan and reshaped it into a TNG Ferengi build that left much to be desired. |

Round 1 | | Ian Parmenter | FW (+75) |
Prime Time was working TNG Non-Aligned, but struggled for card draws while I was off and running on turn 3 due to an early LSWOT. Clearing a Cardassian Trap combo at The Last Outpost shortly before cashing in at Supply Terrorists meant all he could get on the board was Geo Survey after being delayed by a Scientific Method. FW 100-25. |

Round 2 | | Barry Windschitl | ML (-30)View opponent's ReportView original Report |
The Genius was again kicking it with KCA, and benefited greatly from me selling out to destroying Regency 1 over in the MQ. While I eventually destroyed a pair of ships, battle proved to be a gigantic waste of resources as he took the modified win in overtime. ML 60-30. |
As Kris and I worked up to this match, he told me that he didn't have much hope for this game. I've beaten him before, but it is a Rare occurrence. It turns out, his prediction was just about right on. After the nerfing that TNG 'Ginars got, they have been a tough affiliation to get going (I should know, I've tried them), and his biggest tactic was sending Three Marauders into the MQ to harrass me, leading to a game of "Cat and Mouse" as I ferried people to my Mirror Bajor, Search for Rebels, and then my space MQ mission. The game ran long, but it ended up with me getting a mod win by 30 points. Good Game, Kris. |

Round 3 | | Matthew Hayes | FW (+100) |
The Animal was testing AQ Dominion, but was extremely gun shy about attempting whereas I was throwing bodies at missions from the onset. Despite getting tagged with a Disgraceful Assault at Amnesty Talks, Lore & Co. wrapped up this warp speed affair on the ground after making quick work of a Hanonian Land Eel. FW 100-0. |

Closing Thoughts |
Post errata to Gozar and Mercenary Raiders, TNG Ferengi border on unplayable as they lack sufficient skill coverage to solve even their most basic missions. When Rata x3 is required to get to a marginal level of Acquisition personnel, you know you're in for a long day. |
