Lt. Sulu

fooo-weeeeeee-ooooo. "Captain on the Bridge... Ohhh my."

Of all the foil-flinging people I'd ever want to have swashbuckling around on the helm of my Starship Enterprise, I'd want Lt. Sulu. He provides the Enterprise with a tactical advantage by beefing up its WEAPONS as well as providing an array of skills suited towards solving missions in space.

In doing so, Lt. Sulu makes playing an -only deck a very viable option. He not only provides a good show of force to scare off potential enemies but his skills also complement those of his contemporaries to create the necessary skill-redundancy needed for passing nasty dilemma combos. His SCIENCE makes for easier passing of Scientific Method; his Biology for Aphasia Device; his Navigation for Null Space and Navigational Hazards, among others; and his OFFICER for Maglock and Hazardous Duty. He is even an excellent choice to leave on the ship during a planet attempt to pass Crisis and to defend it in case your opponent comes along with a ship or two while the Away Team is "stopped." After all, the best defense is sometimes a good offense.

Combos:

• Lt. Sulu + Wormhole Navigation Schematic: The future may be a strange place, but quadrant-hopping is a breeze for Sulu.
• Lt. Sulu + Starship Enterprise + Captain Kirk + Captain's Log + Mr. Scott: Cry havoc, and let loose the dogs of war!
