Wesley's STCCG card of the day #123


Hi, folks,

another card for a Klingon battle deck:

KLINGON DEATH YELL

Interrupt, rare.
Plays on any just killed Klingon with Honor. Yell to warn the dead and earn 5 bonus points. May play only one death yell for each such Klingon.
"Warning for the dead to beware; a Klingon warrior is about to arrive. In Klingon myth, killed warriors with honor go to Sto-Vo-Kor. Dishonored dead go to Gre'thor."
Three rules clarifications:
1) You can use this with Worf.
2) You can use this on your opponent's Klingons
3) From the card text you have TO ACTUALLY YELL to gain the bonus. Tell that your next opponent in a tourney, preferably if the audience is large :-) (Make sure the Yell is loud enough for the dead to hear!)

Fact (3) is the one that makes this card cool. You have quite a few options to use it. Besides the prosaic effect of gaining 5 points, you can get rid of some frustration (if your own card got killed) or triumph (if your Dilemma just hit home). Be creative in word choice :-)

Second, pointing out that little fact mentioned can embarrass your opponent enough to make her committ a mistake or two after she played the card...

Last, in a round robin tournament, wait until your most feared opponent starts her turn before using it in your game. You will probably cause lots of confu- sion.

Besides that, a boring card. No better than the particle fountain. But WAY COOL if played correctly.
