Wesley's STCCG card of the day #379


Hi, folks,

I know I'm adopting Decipher style here (delivering late all the time) but then it's as with Decipher: Too many ideas, too few resources...

Internet Expansion 4 - 8th place - Author: Bryan Ourso

SEVENTH GUARANTEE

Interrupt
Plays immediately after your opponent recieves points from one of your dilemmas. Those points are nullified.
"One of the founding principles of the Constitution of the United Federation, based upon the United States Constitution, is the protection against self-incrimination."
Definitely a new idea and a somewhat cool one, too. Especially against these pesky space decks. Load up your space missions with Cytherians and don't even care about those fat point boxes. Yes, he might make it to the end of the spaceline. He might even waste a Transwarp Conduit or a pair of Wormholes on it. But who says you have to give him the points? ;-)

But of course you can do better. There are these Borg hunter decks. Especially the Klingon Armada style ones. Now you can counteract them by preceding his Borg with a Borg of your own (important - it has to be your Dilemma). And when he finally gets that suicide attack through and blows both the Borg and his Armada to pieces, just grin and show him your small surprise. I bet he'll hate you for that ;-)

On the other hand if you're not after the spectacular successes, you can protect yourself against a Royale side game gone wrong or you just deprive your opponent of the 5 points he just wasted a turn on by listening to your Sarjenka's plea...

Oh, when you're at it, throw in a Parallax Arguer. After all, it is cool to deprive your opponent of a handful of points. And if he doesn't consider it that cool, just show him how much fun a Kivas on his turn is. And that's cool again, so why not repeat the process? ;-)

Oh, and a last application and that one is weird: You urgently need your Bendii-infected Sarek to solve Wormhole Negotiations next turn and win the game. Then your opponent hits The Higher... the Fewer. Probably the only situation where you'd want to nullify negative points ;-)
