_{Rule hint for this card}

This card has an clarification:

This objective (or Build Interplexing Beacon) disrupts the timeline with the following effects:

“Timeline disrupted in 2063” – If the Borg change history by completing a Stop First Contact or Build Interplexing Beacon objective, the timeline is disrupted and Federation history ceases to exist. Cards which cease to exist include

• humans, including Borg whose biological distinctiveness indicates that they were originally “human species” (but not“humanoids”), and
• -affiliation cards (including multiaffiliation cards, regardless of current mode), such as personnel, ships, and facilities.

However, things from other universes and in other times are not affected by this timeline disruption; thus, the following cards are protected:

• Cards which are at a time location or which are time traveling into the future (e.g., Temporal Rift or Time Travel Pod).
• Cards with an icon or a icon.

If a non-human personnel’s affiliation is “lost” (e.g., to Memory Wipe or Frame of Mind) and the personnel “becomes Non- Aligned,” they are also protected from timeline disruption. See “loses affiliation.”

Except for cards which are protected, all humans and cards in play (in any quadrant) and in both players’ hands, draw decks, side decks, discard piles, etc., must be placed out-of-play. (Reshuffle where appropriate.) If any cards which do not cease to exist are aboard (or played on) a ship or facility which ceases to exist, those cards return to owner’s hand.
