Well, since the Klingons were listed as having surveyed it in the show, why not have them do it in the game. The Ferengi are the others who could do this mission relatively easily and would want to investigate someone else's style of casinos. Geology is for the original intent of the mission, to survey the inclimate planet, then Archaeology is to determine the source of the Charybdis and the novel. Acquisition comes into play within the simulated casino itself because you have to solve the mystery which involves buying the Hotel Royale. The Ferengi will have no trouble coming across these with plenty of Geology and Aquisition and a good amount of Archaeology. Klingons might have a bit of trouble but D'Ghor has Acquisition and the other skills appear on plenty of personnel. Or you can just use the underused AU, Non-Aligned Mickey D. which makes this the ideal place to seed your Royale Casino side game dilemmas. It also brings use to the Charybdis by making it downloadable by any Transporter Skill unopposed at the location. This simulates the Enterprise crew finding it and beaming it aboard even before beaming down to the planet. Points are pretty much average and protect it from the Borg but this mission will be tough to pump up with AMS.
Thanks,
