Introduction |
League Playoffs. I went with a modified version of a TOS deck I played last year, adjusted to be eligible for the Sticky Situation achievement. |
|
Round 1 | | Matthias Martin | FW (+65) |
Matthias went planet first, and lost Shran to an ACE, Bareil to the Guillotine and had to fly back to regroup. He eventually completed IMA, but after I had stopped his attempt in space, the ALC bomb went off, and my guys even managed to do Find Lifeless World on the same attempt. 100-35. |

|
Round 2 | | Cerwy | FW (+100) |
Against TNG with some AU elements. My initial combo took out two people (SI got Kirked, Dal'rok killed one), on his next attempt I used Guillotine to kill Beverly, then I completed ALC, which left him with only a few people in play and he couldn't attempt again before I did my third mission. 100-0. |

Round 3 | | Benjamin Liebich | FW (+20) |
An absolute nail-biter, TOS vs TOS, though completely different missions. Benni had an Anthro/Arch/Science setup with several one-costers to provide good skill redundancy. I killed Spock with an early ACE consume, then consumed the remaining two ACEs with a Guillotine in a d2/s2 situation. He eventually completed his space mission, and even busted through Historical Research in one go (no ACEs left and lots of duplicates made it hard to stop him). On his first attempt with 9 at this last mission, I went all-in and threw everything at him. Guillotine and a bull's-eye Overburdened killed four, and Benni was left without mission skills. With time running out, I auto-completed ALC to leave him with no personnel in play, then went for FLL. Benni successfully gambled with a lone Gorgan, played some guys on his turn, then passed it to me once more. This time I went with ten, including OT Kirk, and cheated through RBA with a Driven to complete for the win. Benni had the pieces in play to do his third on the next turn. 100-80. |

Closing Thoughts |
Still a good, flexible deck, though dilemmas can be very risky. |
