Here's the lowdown
on this new Star Trek CCG product:
21 New Premium Cards
- 12 are fixed and 9 are randomized, as explained
below.
9 Mission IIs
6 Dual Personnel
6 Combined Dilemmas
Sold in six different facings, each box contains
four packs of unlimited (white border) Star
Trek CCG Premiere, and five of the Enhanced
Premiere premium cards. The Enhanced Premiere
box front is die- cut, which allows a view of
the face card, which will always be one of the
six Dual Personnel.
Each box is assembled so that the Dual Personnel
card is followed by its corresponding Mission
II card. They are synchronized in pairs, so
the Dual-Personnel you get will provide skills,
attributes, etc., that help solve the mission.
The six Mission IIs that have outposts are enhanced
with a visual outpost added to the card image,
using Federation, Klingon and Romulan space
stations developed for Activision's Star Trek:
Armada computer game. S, the first two cards
in every box are fixed.
The remaining three premium cards in each box
are randomized to increase the enjoyment of
Warp Speed Sealed Deck play. One of them will
always be a Premiere mission enhanced with a
built-in Wormhole (another kind of Mission II).
These are also double-sided "flip cards" and
there are three different ones available randomly.
The final two premium cards in each pack are
Combo Dilemmas.
Each Combo Dilemma is two Premiere dilemmas
combined together on the same card (two dilemmas
in one). You get two different Combo Dilemmas
randomly in each pack, from a pool of six available.
A cool thing about these Combo Dilemmas is that
they generally combine one space dilemma with
one planet dilemma, so the complete card is
dual-mode space/planet. This means you can now
use certain dilemmas at missions where they
could never go before.
Randomization of premium cards is new, and in
this case is necessary for the Warp Speed play
environment (if they were all fixed, I would
know what your dilemmas are as soon as I see
your missions). However, the random cards are
more frequent than the fixed cards. If you purchased
all six different facings of EP, you would have
exactly one each of the 12 fixed cards, and
-- on average -- two copies of each of the 9
randomized cards (although some trading will
probably be needed if you want the perfect case
of two of each).
