Wesley's STCCG card of the day #134

Hi, folks,

here's yesterday's card, written today because I lacked the time. So all you addicts should still get your next dose in time.

THEI

Personnel, Romulan, common, universal.
Integrity 4
Cunning 6
Strength 8
OFFICER, Geology, Physics, Command Star (*)
"Subcommander Thei is representative of officers serving in the Romulan Star Empire. Ally of the sisters of Duras during the Klingon Civil War."
Now, had they only placed a five in that strategical position instead of a four! Then, we might have had a good card, as I don't think Thermal Deflectors will be THAT great in effect (Why ? Well, Firestorm looks for Thermal Deflectors PRESENT, so I assume they must be played on a location. But then, it's listed as EVENT, which makes it not so terribly useful when the Dilemma has just hit you. Should have been an equipment or artifact...)

So, again we have a non-firestorm-proof Rommie. Two skills to go with. Unfortunately really redundant as long as the best application for them is concerned: Relief mission (stuffed with several artifacts). Other chances? Rare Romulan Missions: Nil. Uncommon Romulan Missions: Nil again. Common Romulan Missions: Nil once more.

SO WHAT FOR ???

Nope. forget it. Any player with some wits will firestorm that Relief Mission anyway, so a Rommie won't have access to a first-turn Horga'Hn.

Favorite combo(s):
