>Hey guys...
>
>Just finished running the first STCCG tournament in out town, and several questions came up during play that I had to make a quick ruling on that I couldn't find in the rules/glossary.
>
>The first question is on reporting/downloading to Nors. Had two specific instances of this issue arrise. Player 1 was playing a Fed/Cardassian treaty deck. He had the treaty in play, and had also commandeered an Empok Nor. He brought an Admiral Riker into play, which allows him to download any Enterprise when he is at a matching facility. Does Empok Nor qualify as a matching facility once it has been commandeered??
If he commandeered it with Federation personnel in the commandeering Away Team, and selected Federation as Empok Nor's affiliation, then it is a matchign facility for Admiral Riker (it is Federation, like he is). If he selected Cardassian affiliation, though (which he could do if he also had Cardassians in the commandeering Away Team) then it does not match Admiral Riker; he is only compatible with it by the treaty. If you have a mixed commandeering Away Team, you must specify what affiliation the Nor now has; it is not dual-affiliation.
>A second instance, where Player 2 is playing a different Fed/Cardassian deck came up - he has a universal Nor and Klaestron Outpost in play with a treaty card. Since the Nor is a Cardassian facility, can he report (or download with Ops) Fed personnel/equipment to the appropriate site at the Nor??
He can *report* them there, because they are compatible due to the treaty. He cannot download personnel there with the Ops text, because Ops requires the downloaded personnel to be matching. A treaty does not make personnel match affiliations, just makes them compatible. Equipment has no affiliation icons, so it can be downloaded with the Ops text.
