StarfleetThe Bliss
Introduction
Nope, nope, nope. Results are wrong, as I defeated Ian (him using the newly-infused ATtS Maquis loaner deck I invigorated) with my latest ATtS Starfleet build. I had the FW, 100-40. My Jupiter, nabbed first, but, barely, admittedly, then Terra Nova, and wrapped up with Aid Lost Colony ftw. Ian was only successful at Elude Federation Forces, with the four Maquis 10 point bonus, for 40 points (and no events on EFF). Expecting (well, hoping anyways, that Mike Rudolph would be making a 'rare these days' appearance), I decided to build a fairly novel dilemma pile that which I dubbed 'the anti-Mike pile' that is a dilemma pile centered on cards from set 24 and beyond, as Mike's known quantity Equinox deck doesn't have any dilemma past set 23. Of my 42 dilemmas, only 8 are pre-24 (and they're anti-Equinox specifically.) Unfortunately, Mike was a no show, so into the middle of my game against my youngest daughter, Kalli, I realized the frightening potential for a major crash and burn against Ian and John, but, thankfully avoided such, perhaps due to the outside the box type of pile I employed.

Closing Thoughts
I'm liking the new Starfleet stuff, at first use, certainly.
