Card Extra

Subcommander Tal from Kathy McCracken (12/01/2000)

Commander Charvanek's first officer complements his commander well, with his Anthropology to go with her Archaeology, both planet-oriented mission skills. Not only does he have SECURITY skill, required in multiples by so many dilemmas and capturing cards, but he has a special download for the Classic Disruptor that will add SECURITY to all your [OS] leaders present, including Tal and Charvanek.

If you prefer to report your hand weapons by another means, you can use his download instead for Intruder Alert! and save your Q the Referee for another important download.

Combos:

• Subcommander Tal + Commander Charvanek + R’Mal + Kathleen Tonell + Tagus + Historical Research + Assign Mission Specialists: A mixed bag of 23rd- and 24th-century people who can fetch you 55 points for one mission.
• Subcommander Tal + Classic Disruptor: Romulans are strong enough that it's often tempting to do without a hand weapon. But if your [OS] crew gets in a bind that requires either guns or STRENGTH, Tal can whip out a disruptor in a jiffy.
