    It seems like people can't get enough of Defiant-class ships, so why not give the people what they want? This new Defiant is almost an exact replica of the good old U.S.S. Defiant, save for the Cloaking Device (though in Mirror, Mirror, it shouldn't be too difficult to get one installed). Simply put, it's the most powerful Terran ship available and one of the strongest Federation ships, period. 8-10-9 attributes for two staffing icons is already great, but the mirror universe Defiant does the U.S.S. Defiant one better by making one of those the Terran icon. In other words, Crew Reassignmentimage will get your Terrans directly aboard. Like others of its class, it gets at least two matching commanders, one of which is again Benjamin Siskoimage who can download to the Defiant via Ready Room Doorimage even when in the mirror universe. The other is Smileyimage whose download of Construct Starshipimage can download the Defiant, so whichever card you draw first can get you the other! Stock those Pulse Phaser Cannonsimage cuz we are gonna rock this quadrant!
