Voyager...Anybody See Me With a Crutch and a Cracker?
Introduction
With only one affiliation remaining in my HQ rotation, the final flight of this nine plus month journey fell to Voyager. Having completed the circuit, I'd argue all players should undertake it both as a personal challenge to be competitive with every affiliation and to learn their various strengths and weaknesses.

Round 1RomulanBen JohnsonFW (+100)View opponent's Report
Mankind was again dealing Romulans, but was de-staffed in space early thanks to the Guillotine and never recovered. A one-attempt solve at Inversion Mystery put me in front, and with no HQ Ben's dilemmas were relatively ineffective. FW 100-0.

Round 2FerengiNat KirtonFW (+50)
The Beast from the East was experimenting with Ferengi, and a lent Daniels was the difference in this showcase of two of TBG's immortals. With the game on the line, the employment of an often overlooked rule guaranteed a triple A.C.E. consume and the win. FW 100-50.

Round 3BajoranSteve NelsonFW (+100)
The Full Nelson was orchestrating a 2-mission win Bajoran design, but ill-timed a combat at Aid Maritime Sovereignty that led to a wasted turn. Tactical Disadvantage also hit him really hard in this game, stopping him cold three straight times in space. FW 100-0.

Round 4ByeBY (0)
The BYE was spent chowing down on the treats that were kindly purchased for the attendees and dialing up The Original Champion, where we discussed the day's games and future Land of 10,000 Champions League events.

Round 5DominionJeremy BenedictFW (+30)
The Razor was engineering Dominion, and had me on the ropes following a one-attempt solve at Rescue P.O.W.'s. Dilemmas slowed us both down immensely from there, and a bizarre double deck out on his turn led Voyager successfully home to the Promised Land. FW 65-35.
