Card Extra

Navigate Plasma Storms from Evan Lorentz (07/1998)

This objective is the reason why they call it the Badlands. Playing off the rather common interrupt, doorway and objective icons, a ship in the Badlands without enough Navigation is just asking to be hurt. You can protect ships that might otherwise be tempting targets for battle by hiding out in the Badlands, or draw your opponent in there against their will using Cytherians, Conundrum, Incoming Messages, or Wormholes.

Combo:

• Navigate Plasma Storms + opponent's Assign Mission Specialists: There aren't nearly enough Navigation specialists to avoid the Plasma Storms - and decks loaded down with that objective are going to frequently turn up the ship-destroying result on a probe.
