Card Extra

Lt. D’Amato from Todd Soper (08/07/2000)

See picture of Lt. D’Amato.

 

Lt. D’Amato, while seeming a rather average SCIENCE personnel with planet-oriented skills, is actually quite a lot more than that. I shall now begin the daunting task of listing most of the things (that I can think of) that make this card more than meets the eye...

  1. With a Classic Tricorder he can become a double-SCIENCE, or a triple-Geologist! Can you say Geological Survey?
  2. His [AU] icon makes him prime real estate for a Space-Time Portal drop.
  3. He can be downloaded, or allowed to report to your ship, with Assign Support Personnel.
  4. Archaeology is needed to solve some good missions, one of them being worth 55 points!
  5. He has a relatively low CUNNING, meaning he is less likely to be a target for Unscientific Method.
  6. He can report for free to Sherman’s Peak if Space Station K-7 is there.
  7. Both his SCIENCE and his Geology are important dilemma-passing skills, needed to overcome such walls as Odo (DS9)'s "Cousin" and Scientific Method.

While this is by no means a complete list, it is definitely enough to convince me that Lt. D'Amato will be going in all of my [OS]-themed decks.

Combos:

  • Lt. D'Amato + Classic Medical Tricorder: Give D'Amato Exobiology and getting past Odo's "Cousin" was never easier. He can even "stop" himself to get the extra 5 points.
  • Lt. D'Amato + Assign Support Personnel: In bad need of another SCIENCE out in the field? D'Amato can report straight to your ship.
