Wesley's STCCG card of the day #140

Hi, folks,

at three days remaining to AU, let's get quick finishing OUR universe:

SHELBY

Personnel, Federation, rare.
Integrity 6
Cunning 7
Strength 4
OFFICER, Leadership, Exobiology, Command Star (*)
"Lt. Commander Shelby is an ambitious Starfleet officer. Assigned to the U.S.S. Enterprise as a specialist on the Borg."
A card that really does not fit with itself. Although the skills fit the episode very well, her two abilities (crappy for a Fed rare) do not harmonize game-wise. Being an OFFICER with Leadership once again totally nullifies the value of the classification, so they could have as well made her a VIP.

The rest, Leadership and Exobiology are two skills which are both on the better end of the scale but not at the very top. The trouble: They don't fit together. Six Fed missions do require Leadership and four need Exobiology. Unfortunately none of them requires both. And have you ever seen a regular (basic rules) game where one player has 10 missions ?
Recommendations: Use Roga Danar and Evek for Leadership or Richard Galen for Exobiology. Their complementary skills just fit better.

Favorite combo(s):
