Hints & strategie notes for this Deck
This deck is the complement to my previous "People's Front of Cardassia". This deck here uses also many cilvians and mirror personnels, too. Sherlock Holmes serves as draw engine.
While seeding your Search for Rebels download the Emblem of the Alliance and with it The Art of Diplomacy. In your first turn activate Crossover, then download The Intendant to the Guest Quarters (via Ops download). Now you can report once each turn for free:
- Javek Len or Taymar Bern ("The Intendant"-related personnel via The Emblem of the Alliance),
- one Civilian or VIP personnel at your Husnock Outpost (via War Council),
- one Civilian at the Chamber of Ministers, if your First Minister Shakaar is there,
- one Minister, Vedek or Kai at your Chamber of Ministers,
- one Resistance personnel (via Bajoran Resistance Cell) to your facility (Deep Space Nine or the Chamber of Ministers) e.g. Gantt.
Sherlock Holmes is the draw-engine, but additional cards can be drawn via Bajoran Resistance Cell. For this intention download Kira via Defend Homeworld (next to her Resistance skill, Honor x2 is very helpful against Ankari "Spirits" - if you would like concentrate your abilities against Ankari "Spirits", you can also use Kira Nerys, Outspoken Major and use two other Resistance personnel for this action.) and use the announced objective as soon as you have a second Resistance personnel in play: Once each turn download an espionage card to one of your missions and draw two cards. You can also attempt your homeworld with those cards, there is no need for HQ: Secure Homeworld.
During the game use the Sites of Deep Space Nine as followed:
- End of each turn draw one additional card if Morn is in Quark's Bar,
- In place of one card draw, draw two cards, choose one, place the other beneath draw deck, if a VIP (The Intendat) is in your Guest Quarters,
- Go shopping in the Promenade Shops. If you have a personnel there, probe once each turn (and draw the probe card, if you are lucky),
- The Holosuite is just for running your Holoprogram: 221B Baker Street and download Sherlock Holmes for your Draw Engine,
- The Ops allowes you to download to a site one card which may be played there, instead of your normal card play. E.g. a Bajoran Freighter to the Docking Ports or First Minister Shakaar to the Guest Quarters (but draw no cards that turn).
Discard the Art of Diplomacy for a hand weapon for The Intendant, continue downloading more hand weapons with Yint or Fontaine (if you haven't drawn it already) and go ahead for the Kressari Rendezvous, which gets 45 points solving it while discarding up to four hand weapons. You can also use Bareil's SD for a hand weapon, but to save it for the Borg Nanoprobes could be useful later. Furthermore you can use the special download of Morn for a Gold-Pressed Latinum, which can be changed at Quark's Bar into any other equipment. E.g. Save your Deep Space Nine from beeing attacked with Ablative Armor (you can also add other useful equipments to this deck, like Breen CRM114 (Yint is an arms-dealer) or Plasmadyne Relay...)
Next try to solve Deliver Supplies with the Xepolite Freighter, which is easy to staff and surprises each time with it's range of 9.
What else:
- Deliver Supplies counts as space and planet mission at once, which makes it difficult for an opposing The Big Picture affecting you.
- Use Dixon Hill for solving any mission where your solving personnel have died and prevent opponent's unique personnel reports with his SD for Dixon Hill's Business Card (very effective if your opponent is playing a deck like Hirogen or Federation),
- You can even use Professor Sisko for solving your Mirror Quadrant mission (no one would expect this...) ,
- Earn 10 bonus points by downloading the Phoenix with What Does God Need With A Starship? in the Mirror Quadrant (or Bajor),
- Sacrifice Weyoun 6 to save Odo,
- Leeta supports our personnel with her SD Kukalaka (each personnel present Integrity +3) or allowes you to play Dabo once each turn to collect more bonus points,
- Also your Quark may support your ships without staffing requirements with a Small Cloaking Device.
