TNGTNG WCT League ID Draft Worlds 2012
Introduction
What a great draft - I didn't need the second HQ (Klingon) as noone seemed to be drafting Federation. I ended up with only five Klingons so it worked out well that they were not needed.

Round 1RomulanAmber Van BreemenFW (+35)
Amber and I both had one mission solved when I got the chance to use Tampering With Time to stop her playing dilemmas effectively on my final mission attempt. A close game - Tampering With Time gave me the edge.

Round 2Shane BrierleyTT (0)
Against Shane I hit The Clown Go Away at both missions slowing me down. The benefit of solving two missions at once is I locked up his copy of In Development. We were locked at 35-35 when time was called. I had a chance to solve my final mission with 14 personnel on table, but Shane had options to draw extra dilemmas. I decided to attempt with everyone and hope for the best and was unable to get the win. Chula: Unfortunate Roll failed to hit at a critical stage of the game.

Round 3FerengiRomulanMike GarveyFW (+35)
Mike's mission totals made it difficult for him t take out this one (30-35-40). He attempted the 30 and 35 pointers and nearly solved both but would have fallen short of 70 points. I managed to get home for the full win.

Round 4KlingonTNGNon-AlignedUnjustly BannedFL (-35)
This game was close. James had excellent dilemmas for the format and managed to power past me with some well played dilemmas. Chula: Unfortunate Roll also failed to hit at a critical stage of the match that might have helped swing the match in my favour. Well played James.

Closing Thoughts
Probably the best I have done at an ID draft - hopefully a sign that I am getting a better understanding of the format. It was lots of fun.
