today I'm doing something for those of you who like those Romulans:
But then, there are some doubts. Integrity 2 and Firestorm? Alien Parasites? And only two skills? Isn't there anything better?
Yes there is. And the best thing about that "anything better" is: It isn't even rare! A lowly uncommon Tebok has one less Cunning than Alidar, but you get a Diplomacy, three extra Integrity (making him Firestorm-resistant) and one more Strength.
What did you say? You need more than one Romulan Officer with Leadership and Navigation? Well, try Toreth ! She's got one less Strength than Alidar, but once again, that 5 Integrity and an extra Honor !
To summarize, I can only say Decipher really screwed up on this card. Like the Type VI Shuttle (6/2/4) easily replaced by a runabout (7/5/5) or the uncommon Sutherland (*+,7/7/7) that can be replaced both by a common Nebula (*+,8/7/8) or a non-aligned common Mercenary Ship (++,7/7/7) this is one of those "filler" cards that don't make any sense to play.
Note to M:tG players here: Your game isn't better in this respect, only in many cases the two cards to be compared are at least different colors which makes some sense. Here I'm always talking SAME AFFILIATION!
