The Continuing Voyages... #19

In "Heart of Glory" the Enterprise responds to a distress call from the freighter Batris which had experienced engine troubles. The Batris had actually been hijacked by three Klingon renegades: Korris, Konmel, and Kunivas.

Respond to Distress Signal

Near Klingon Border: Provide needed assistance to damaged freighter.
ENGINEER + Honor + (Transporter Skill OR Android)
Korris, Konmel, and/or Kunivas may seed here and mix with your crew/Away Team containing any Klingon.
30 points, span 2



The Federation is again listed because they were the ones who did the mission in the show. The Non-Aligneds were added because the Batris was a Non-Aligned ship and because they can also attempt Samaritan Snare, a very similarly oriented mission. The requirements go along with what happened in the show pretty well I think: ENGINEER to help fix the ship, Honor to deal with the Klingons there, and either an Android to open the door and get you to the beam-out location or Transporter Skill to beam them out from where they were. It's missions like this one that make me wish that decipher had another mission type: Space, Planet, and Ship. Missions like this and Samaritan Snare as well as the second half of the Planet/Space missions could have been this type. Quite a few of the dilemmas could be too. But I guess there isn't really that many available. Oh well. I thought of allowing Malfunctioning Door to seed here since that happened in this episode but I decided against it because A) the android to get past it is required on the mission anyway and B) in favor of the Klingon seeding clause. This probably wouldn't be of too much use for most decks but it gives use to those Federation Klingons: both Worfs, Alexander and K'Ehleyr because it allows them to work together. Also using Non-Aligneds you could easily get some K'nera points for your Klingons and if you really wanted get them to work with your Romulans and the Sisters of Duras (although they couldn't work with Korris.) The points seem pretty fair especially since Scotty can do this mission by himself. Look on my dream card page in the next couple of days for Kunivas who would make this card even better (or at least the other two Klingons mentioned on it.)
