Terok NorYuta Jazz
Introduction
I dusted off the Weyoun deck because I figured Yuta might be a worthwhile addition to all the Leadership drain going on.

Round 1BajoranThomas UhlFW (+100)
Thomas returned to the game after a 10-year hiatus. His Integrity Bajorans were hit hard by a combo ending in Sylvia, and his ship was destaffed. I slowly crawled through my missions and had to do three of them, because I forgot to use Quite a Coincidence. Was good to see a new face, or a familiar one for veterans like Thorsten and Markus!

Round 2KlingonThorsten WanekFW (+40)
Thorsten played stop-preventing speed Klingons. I failed to track Leadership correctly (overlooked one of the Duras sisters) and handed him the space mission on a silver plate with the lone Inequitable Exchange I played, but at least I captured Gowron that way. He was the only Security in play at that point, so I went after that skill with a vengeance, banishing as many as possible back to the bottom of his deck with Weyoun. That gave me time to catch up, and in the end it came down to a double-teaming of my planet. I attempted with 5 and 5, with 3 under. Thorsten decided not to play any dilemmas against the first team, but they could solve for the win. Close affair.

Round 3RomulanFloMW (+20)
Flo played an original creation built around discarding Romulans. It was quite different from Neil Timmons' version and used some brilliant pieces to complement the Gal Gath'thong. Speaking of which, I had a Weyoun in my hand by turn 3, so I was able to get rid of Keras and neutered the GGT early on. I failed to assassinate the Viceroy with Yuta (I knew one number was different between the two version, but somehow thought it was the Integrity 2/3, not cost 2/3, so I called an attribute total that wasn't there at all. oh well...), but I kept on top of his Leadership and was able to stop him with Dignitaries and Witnesses at least four times and got the modiefied win.

Closing Thoughts
Not something I'd go to war with in big events, but good enough to catch some decks on the wrong foot every now and then.
