Card Extra

Planet from Kathy McCracken (01/1998)

See picture of Planet.

 

Here's the planetary counterpart to Patrol Neutral Zone: a universal planet mission with a point box. If you're playing two planet/four space and one of your planets is a duplicate, you can substitute this without fear of a Balancing Act 50-point penalty. Its low point value makes it irrelevant to the Borg, too.

Like Patrol Neutral Zone, it has one simple requirement (a single skill) and one trickier one: a landed ship. Time to dust off those Engage Shuttle Operations, Type VI Shuttlecrafts, and Yridian Shuttles. Now you actually have a reason to use them.

And because Planet may be attempted by any Away Team, the non-aligneds just edged another step closer to a viable all-non-aligned deck. Just add a few points dilemmas like Sarjenka or the Royale Casino sidegames (with Mickey D., of course).
