    PLAYER CHARACTERS THE STARFLEET OFFICER & NCO CLASSES For a Starfleet Officer, all D&D classes are considered Alien Classes; alien class levels may only be obtained via the rules under Multi-Classing and Back-Classing, below. Unless rolling an NCO version of these classes, all the officer classes in this chapter count as the “Starfleet Officer” class with the following features: • Usually no access to magic or to Alien feats (feats rare among Starfleet officers) • Usually no access to abilities unique to D&D classes (some starter packages unlock classes) • Skill Points at First Level: (2 + (Cha mod) + (Int mod) + (Wis mod)) x 4 • Skill Points per Level: 2 + (Cha mod) + (Int mod) + (Wis mod) • A Bonus Feat based advancement structure, with feats only available to Starfleet Officers • d6 hit dice unless noted otherwise • Gains rank (starting with Ensign) at levels 1 and 5 (except for Command Officers). Note on Class and Starter Packages: Starter packages are only mandatory if you want access to D&D classes, spells, and feats which would not normally appear in Starfleet skills and training. Note, starter packages only include full access to Starfleet feats if the package notes it. If no starter package is chosen, the character has full access to Starfleet feats. NCO Starfleet Classes: Replace Starfleet Officer feat with any (NCO) feat under New Feats. If an Officer-only feat is cited in a class description, replace it with any other available feat. NCO versions of classes are otherwise identical to their base class (whether an NCO version of the below classes, or a Starfleet NCO version of an alien (normal D&D) class).

  • Star Trek Customizable Card Game INTRODUCTION Welcome to A
    Star Trek Customizable Card Game INTRODUCTION Welcome to a universe with endless possibilities. The Star Trekª Customizable Card Gameª universe contains over 1600 common, uncommon, rare, ultra-rare, and premium cards, representing missions, personnel, ships, and more from the Star Trek universe. A game requires two players, each with a deck customized from the cards in his or her collection. Your personnel will report for duty, fly ships to mission locations, and overcome obstacles called "dilemmas" before they can complete their mission and score points. They may engage in ship-to-ship battles or personal combat. Cards representing equipment, rare artifacts, and events from the Star Trek universe will aid or hamper their progress. This rulebook is designed to teach you the basic procedures for playing the Star Trek Customizable Card Game. The companion Glossary Version 1.7 is comprehensive, and contains all Star Trek Custom izable Card Game rules and rulings as of August 2000. (It's not necessary to read the Glossary cover to cover, since it's designed to be learn-as-you-go.) We recommend that you discard all rules documents (booklets, supplements, FAQs, Current Rulings, etc.) dated prior to August 2000. Keep these few things in mind as you begin: * Allow a few hours to read the rules and play your first few games. What seems complicated in the beginning becomes quite natural in subsequent games. It takes a little practice and patience to master the infinite possibilities of this game. * A term or phrase appearing in bold type indicates that there is more information on the topic in the companion Glossary.
