Introduction
I had no clue how this deck would do, but I wanted to learn how it would work then improve upon it.

Round 1	Matthew Ting	ML (-70)View opponent's Report View original Report
With my HQ and Matthew's HQs at the opposite ends of the alpha quadrant spaceline Starfleet didn't have to face the wrath of the Klingon empire. I had to draw for my first ship since Matthew got pass a New Advancements with 3 or 4 personnel after facing Chula: The Chandra with 8 or 9 personnel. By the time I started attempting missions the Tribble Bomb had exploded and Matthew had a mission completed, and got another mission completed by end time while I got one mission completed and was attempting the next mission.
His first mission attempt and he hits Gomtuu Shock Wave, with 2 Tactics dropping his only ship's range to 2. It took 2 copies of Straight And Steady for it to get home and be replaced by another ship, luckily his ship could cloak and could avoid my cloaked IKC Kladiyus with Chang / Captains Logs which I sent out to cause mayhem.

Round 2	Smiley	FL (-70)View opponent's Report View original Report
After Mike's Borg did The Nexus ship swap his Borg plodded onwards to victory, while my Starfleet crews learnt that they needed more learnings and liked chasing the space fairies.
This game went a little more in my favour. Having to balance all of the Starfleet stuff slowed Walzo down, which allowed my Borg to muddle through dilemmas to get to the win.

Round 3	Steve Hartmann	FW (+75)View opponent's Report View original Report
With Wall of Ships, Columbia and Temporal Shifting in my opening hand I knew I had a chance a winning. Steve was in the lead for a good portion of the game until he ran into my Ankari's and danced with The Nexus I sent his way. From there the victory was a matter of completing my last mission for 100 points that was blocked by the second of Steve's Friendly Fire's that I failed to pass.
Daniel triggered the Nexus which caused havoc with my low range Klingon ships. Ankari Spirits was brutal as I have little to no Honor and Walzo steamrolled home with most of my ships and personnel in the dead pile.

Closing Thoughts
I know now how to improved my dilemma combos to my liking, and I have ideas for the rest of this deck. This deck was more enjoyable than other 1E decks I've made in the past.
