SIGNIFICANT RULINGS CHANGES AND CLARIFICATIONS

Several earlier formal and informal rulings have been changed or clarified. For details, see the following listings (entries marked with an asterisk have been added or revised since the previous Current Rulings):

* actions - step 1: initiation - The initiation of a dilemma encounter is defined. Clarification of timing of dilemma encounters when affected by Mission Fatigue and Cyrus Redblock.

Ajur and Boratus - "Stopped" personnel may still be "with" Ajur or Boratus or may prevent them from being "alone with Archaeology."

assimilation - Most personnel features (except gender) now remain relevant when a personnel is assimilated. Correction to assimilation of counterparts (species, etc. remain relevant as for drones).

beaming: You may no longer beam through Borg SHIELDS unless a card allows it.

Borg: The interim Borg outpost rules from First Contact are cancelled. You may seed or build a Borg Outpost at any [S] mission with no affiliation icons (or build at an assimilated planet). The outpost may be attacked or targeted normally. Borg do not use hand weapons.

Borg Cube - Revised text allowing non-[BO] equipment to report aboard.

* Borg Nanoprobes - Not a hand weapon.

carried ships: If a carried ship is launched from a landed ship, it counts as both launching and taking off.

Containment Field - May nullify a Destroy Radioactive Garbage Scow already in play (even after the mission is solved).

copy: This term is defined to account for dual-affiliation cards printed with two border colors and reprints with new card images, lore, and property logos.

Crossover: Cannot be used to download Multi-Dimensional Transporter Device to Ezri if she used her special download for the Crossover after reporting.

dilemma resolution: Personnel held with a dilemma atop a mission may not use or share skills or attributes.

Disruptor Overload: Not a valid response to the play of an Equipment card.

* downloading - Downloaded personnel and equipment may not join a mission attempt in progress (unless special downloaded).

Cybernetics - The existing Glossary entry is cancelled upon release of Holodeck Adventures.

Ferengi Trading Post: "Reporting aboard" includes ships.

gender - Borg drones are considered to have no gender.

Gomtuu: May not target a facility.

Harness Particle 010 - Clarification of interaction with Resistance Is Futile.

He Will Make An Excellent Drone: Subcommand and attribute adjustments are now the same whether the counterpart was pre-assimilated or assimilated from the opponent.

holographic personnel and equipment: May exist only on ships or facilities (except with Mobile Holo-Emitter). May be reactivated only by other personnel present (on a turn subsequent to the deactivation).

Holo-projectors - New errata as reprinted in Holodeck Adventures.

in play - Cards in a Temporal Rift or Time Travel Pod are now in play for uniqueness only.

In the Zone - Clarification of interactions with Intermix Ratio.

Kazon: Clarification of affiliation, species, and sects.

mission: Missions without point boxes may now be seeded or played only in the Alpha Quadrant.

* Q-type Android - A holographic personnel affected by this dilemma remains a hologram.

quarantine: The recent quarantine ruling is reversed. Dilemmas (but not other cards) that require you to move personnel will override quarantine.

Q's Fantasy Women - Errata: card is a Q-icon EVENT, not DILEMMA.

random selection: Selections are not random unless so specified. If method not specified, selections are the choice of the player playing the card or encountering the dilemma.

* revised text - Add Adapt: Negate Obstruction, Assimilate Planet, Assimilate Starship, Bajoran Resistance Borg Cube, Establish Gateway, Locutus' Borg Cube, Queen's Borg Cube, Q's Fantasy Women, and Transwarp Network Gateway to the list.

scouting locations - You must complete scouting for an objective even if you already resolved all dilemmas under a previous objective. (Clarified 12/5/01)

scouting planets: Borg may now beam an Away Team of any size to scout a planet.

Supernova - May no longer be played on the same turn as Tox Uthat, even if a card allows you to make another card play.

turn - You may now choose the order of start-of-turn and end-of-turn actions without regard to whether they are mandatory or optional.

Warp Speed: Rules for Borg affiliation are added.

white deprivation - The existing Glossary entry is cancelled upon release of Holodeck Adventures.
