I-ah Broka your face!!! (get in the truck!) |
Introduction |
Bringing the old Cardies out w/ the new cards.. SUPER FUN!!! However I changed things up. I took Tain out, so I didn't have to have all Intelligence missions, and tried to get away from core events as much as I could so I would be at less risk. Also I added 95 points of missions so I only had to come up with a Broka and didn't need any other points for the win. |

Round 1 | | Dale Hanak | FW (+65) |
Dale Hanak. The first time I played Dale like 4 years ago, he was flashing his "Worlds 1e runner up" bag that he won trying to intimidate me into losing. I believe he won that game, but because of a bad beat. However today, I was able to get the jump on him and take out key personnel, hit him with a well timed Dreamer and generally make a mess of his personnel and leave his ships stranded around the galaxy. The lesson of the day is, if you play the same deck every week for 4 years, eventually someone is going to build something to beat you. |

Round 2 | | Nick Macrino | FW (+65) |
Nick is a great guy & we chat & hang out in the chat room & stuff, so it was really great to sit down and hang out with him for a game. I was really glad I got a chance to sit & play a game w/ him and hang out. He was playing an ENT deck with Korrath for the event destruction. I was able to tag a bunch of his guys at his mission and stop him, and he was struggling to play dilemmas agaisnt me with Telle and just the sheer numbers of personnel I had. Also I was using Prin to cover Archer, so I had him locked down. It was a great time to hang out with a great guy, but I had him locked down pretty well. |

Round 3 | | silverej | FW (+35) |
This was another game that I caught a money card. While he was attempting his mission, I was able to drop a Shocking Betrayal to totally ruin his away team. The game ended up being a bit close, but I believe that turn where I wrecked his away team and stranded his ship was what gave me the time to do my missions and win. |

Round 4 | | Phil Schrader | FW (+65) |
Phil. now Phil had just beat BenHosp. Ugh. rough.. and I saw what he was going immediately. TOS w/ Assess Contamination is really strong. ugh. and he went there first. but I caught him and killed a bunch of his people, then Eveked a Kirk off the top of his deck.. then Evek'ed a bunch more guys, then Ensnared a b bunch of guys, and when i won the game he had 8 personnel in my brig. It also came down to him giving me a Secret ID, to an away team that didn't have Security or Geology, and I pulled out the missing Security.. so kids, just so you know, Secret ID can back fire on you. |

Round 5 | | John Corbett | FL (-100) |
This game was a game where I needed a good cut. John was doing Weyoun nonsense, and I knew my people were going to go away quickly.. but I couldn't draw any personnel. OMG!!! so in the game that I need to barf people onto the table, I couldn't find a soul. I made a critical error when I played Conflict from my hand disarding my hand, and discarding the things I needed to solve missions and the things I needed to knock John into a 3rd mission. Oh well, learn for next time.. oh yeah.. Weyoun is crazy. |
