    Maybe I'm missing something, but why is Quark bonus crew if he isn't part of the event crew? Is he going to be a pack-only addition?

    I know the actor is the same, but this is a completely different character.

    He's Quark in the other reality in the mind of Benny/SIsko.

    Same reason Benny is a variant of Sisko, etc.

    You haven't seen Alfre Woodard until you've seen her as Mariah Stokes in Marvel's Luke Cage.

    I thought she was good in season 1, and I thought she was fantastic in season 2.

    Mariah Stokes could easily be one of the best villains in the MCU.

    Perhaps it has to do with the underlying theme of the game: Mixing characters from different shows. I tire of repeating this. 🖖🏻

    I'm new to the forums, sorry for bothering you! ✌

    How are you going to get a Xindi Avian? They are extinct and were never shown.

    Okay, so stop repeating yourself. Unless you are contractually obligated to do so.

    Roger wilco, no contracts.
    I hope Herbert Rossoff has good stats. 🖖🏻

    This game is all about mixing timelines. It doesn't matter if Xindi Avians are extonct in the future, DB can just take one from when they weren't. DB all the time creates fake characters so creating a Xindi Avian isn't much of a stretch.

    Just source em from where they stole the Xindi in the first place. The Master of Orion franchise. Lol, even the Avians/Alkari being killed off was lifted.

    One character, who appeared in just one film, no other appearances on screen, and I don't think any other mentions. I am not complaining, it was good acting, but this must set the new record for crew per appearance.

    Is Lily Sloane the new Burnham, and can we expect phaser Sloane in the future?

    Is it me, or is SCI going to be at a premium in this event?

    SCI is definitely going to be a problem. My guess is that Herbert will be SCI/DIP and that will be our only decently-available SCI crew for phase 2.

    I know the actor is the same, but this is a completely different character.

    He's Quark in the other reality in the mind of Benny/SIsko.

    Same reason Benny is a variant of Sisko, etc.

    I would argue this is different and not a fair comparison. In Far Beyond The Stars, Sisko and Benny are essentially the same character, by that I mean Benny is writing about Sisko and the gang OR Sisko is hallucinating Benny and the gang, so they have a connection in that sense.

    Quark has absolutely no connection to Herb in this way, it's just Benny or Sisko imaging the person similar.

    I would think Quark should NOT be a bonus crew in this event... my 2 cents, maybe it'll buy me a copy of Incredible Tales

    Faction part should be very difficult with the shallow pool event crew.

    I'm counting 9 4*/5* characters --- so not enough to fill 4 shuttles, but maybe 3 or so.....

    DB has to take gameplay considerations into account. This event is already pretty light on bonus crew, especially for an event with a faction phase. Without variants of Quark included, all we would have for bonus crew (not counting green and blue cards) would be 4 Superrares and one Legendary crew.

    I bet this ends up being a lot like other "relatives":
    • Variants of Torres were bonus when her mother, Miral, was a featured crew. But Miral Torres was not a bonus in events featuring other versions of B'Elanna Torres.
    • Variants of Yar were bonus when her daughter, Sela, was a featured crew. But Sela has never been a bonus crew for events featuring other versions of Tasha Yar.
    • Variants of Data were bonus when his "daughter," Lal, was a featured crew. But Lal has never been a bonus crew for events featuring versions of Data.
    • Etc.

    I disagree. You've listed a bunch of people who are related to one of the "main cast" but are actually completely different people (even if they were played by the same actor).

    A better comparison would be Holograms of base characters (Anastasia Komananov and others from Our Man, Bashir). Perhaps the best comparison is to Benny Russell who was Sisko's character in Far Beyond the Stars and was part of the event crew from the Catching Fire event with Enemy Lines Sisko .
