    His face may look a lot like Gowron's, but Kavok could hardly be more different. His array of skills is rather unusual for a Klingon: Computer Skill, Treachery and Physics (with his classification of OFFICER). Despite his deceitful nature, however, this is one Treachery personnel who can survive a Firestorm. And while he'll help nicely at places like Compromised Mission and Khitomer Research, this is one personnel you probably won't be using much for solving missions.

    Right off, with Treachery, Computer Skill and a STRENGTH of 9, you may be thinking Airlock. Or you might just want to try straight up battle. After all, Kavok's just the man to have around if you eliminate all personnel on an opponent's ship, as he can download Commandeer Ship to take control of it. Then again, with Kavok you can hinder a Fedderation opponent without any direct confrontation at all. Just report him directly to an empty Federation ship, then use the special download to fly off with it!

    Combo:

    • Kavok + Mission Debriefing: Your opponent had better not send everyone down to attempt a mission. Mission Debriefing will see to it that it sits empty until your turn, when Kavok can make off with it.
