Dr. Fitzgerald really didn't get much air time on Voyager (being one of the crew that died in the pilot). But what if he had survived the trip to the Delta Quadrant?
The third mission specialist in Voyager also bears a familiar skill. When paired with Dr. La Forge, his scientific counterpart, Dr. Fitzgerald can increase the benefits of missions such as Changeling Research and Expose Plot. As well, the pairing of MEDICAL and SCIENCE can help combat dilemmas such as Scientific Method and Hyper-Aging. Two Exobiology will also come in handy when studying Odo's "Cousin" or combatting the Macrovirus. Not to mention those pesky Tribbles.
Dr. Fitzgerald is also a fine addition to Vidiian Voyager decks, through either the Vidiian Sodality or the Micro-Temporal Wormhole. Exobiology and MEDICAL are staples among the Vidiians, but Dr. Fitzgerald can lend a hand to increase the number of points gained from Cure Deadly Virus and Research Phage.
Combos:
- Cure Deadly Virus + Nirata x2 + Dr. Fitzgerald: Downloadable delight. Here are a few universal personnel you might not mind have quarantined until they can solve for 50 points.
- Assign Mission Specialists + Dr. Fitzgerald + Alyssa Ogawa: Have the equivalent of Beverly Crusher on the table first turn.
