Card Extra

Install Autonomic Systems Parasite from Evan Lorentz (01/1999)

This card is a powerful tool in the Dominion's infiltration arsenal. You can use it to potentially stall your opponent's mission solving for a turn by locking up their transporters. You can use it to pave the way for your own attack by locking out their special equipment (mainly, their Cloaking Device) for a turn. Or you can take control of the ship and use it against its own forces. When used this way, you'll find the objective most useful against Bajoran, Klingon and Romulan opponents - they have more ships with WEAPONS greater than their SHIELDS, making it more likely you'll have a target you can damage with the ship you control.

Combos:

• Install Autonomic Systems Parasite + Borg Ship: Use your control over your opponent's ship to move them to the location of a Borg Ship dilemma.
• Install Autonomic Systems Parasite + Invasive Beam-In: This one works well against another Dominion player. Use Invasive Beam-In to put a Founder on an opponent's ship. They can't infiltrate, but generally can't be battled by other Dominion personnel anyway. Even with only one turn of control over your opponent's ship, you can do all sorts of annoying things - maybe even exhaust your opponent's White supply in certain situations.
