So I got some insight into the midwest the past few days. I've been trying to arrange a regional on a Sunday, May 15th, but it seems nobody can accommodate me. Local TD's tell me they don't want to lose some of their locals. At first I got a little annoyed. I didn't think it was a big deal. But when I thought about it, most of their "locals" only play a few times a year. In my area, a regional is just another tournament, just worth a few more ratings points. No big deal. But out there, this is the only time the weirdos and hillbillies come out of their woodsheds and iceshacks and play some Trek. I hope I can make this trip happen. But I'm not sure if a guy from Jersey has any buisness out in the middle on nowhere. For today's GCBC we play "current events" and select two from the last set, Extreme Measures.
Good Card: Quinn
Why: I've said it in the past, the only time Brad said something I agreed with 100% is when he said, "Events are made to be destroyed." When it come to blowing up events Quinn is the nuclear option. I prefer it over Desperate Sacrifice. No cost (counters), and you only need to command 2 events instead of 4. If you have a deck that can handle losing 5 points then this needs to be in it.
Bad Card: I Stand With My Shipmates
Why: I'm not a fan of cards that are useless in my hand early on. The only thing early this thing would be useful for is making Morik attributes +5. Sorry, not good enough. So the idea is that I can pop this event instead of paying 5 points on a cost, which was the theme of the last set. My issue is, most abilites that you pay 5 points for already have some alternate way of paying. Usually it's a ship, Equinox or the new Bajoran ship, the Te'nari. This is a 'late game card', and I just don't like those types of cards.
