    An easy mission if all you're looking for is 30 points, but guess what? It's not even that difficult to get 45. Leadership isn't particularly hard to come by, and since we are in the Delta Quadrant, the Kazon can put their Warship to good use supplying the WEAPONS. Playing the Vidiians? Their Cruiser will do just as well. Using the Feds? I'm sorry, this one's not for you.

    Of course, you Feds will make a juicy target to ambush so don't feel left out! A simple Hailimage will make the U.S.S. Voyagerimage stop in its tracks. If the mission is completed on that turn, the coveted 45 points can be added to, oh, I don't know, Restore Victimsimage' 55 for an even 100!

    Combos:

    • Ambush Ship + Kazon Warshipimage + Culluhimage: The ambush specialists.
    • Ambush Ship + Vidiian Cruiserimage + Nadirumimage x2 + Captain's Logimage: Even if the ship gets a couple damage markers, it'll likely still have the required WEAPONS and the Leadership. (Then download Boarding Claw and steal all their organs!)
