Sisko good, Alexander from the future trying to save his father by making his child self tough, and EMA which I guess is the Emergency Medical Android version of the Voyager Doctor from one ep. Looks okay. It would be fun if all androids gave bonus too.

Yes! I don't make the connection, but FINALLY!

They still aren't abandoning this 5* for the next event nonsense eh? I was hopeful they might actually see how awful it is and go back

yay future alexander, what a good episode that was - and he's only a 4* so i won't have to burn a ton of boosts, thanks as always for the info Shan!!

Data1001

So, James Sloyan will now have 3 characters in the game: K'mtar Alexander, Alidar Jarok, and Mora Pol. How long before we see his 4th, Ma'Bor Jetrel?

Why would they? They make more money this way and that's all they care about

You had me at Warship Doctor. Looks like I am going to have to get some extra Thursday cadet tickets next week...

I think it's fine like this. Earn a legendary and then get to actually use that legendary.

Captain_Who

Eh, couldn't care any less about Jerk Alexander. But if it is Warship Doctor, as long as his stats don't s-duck , I'm probably going to have to spend a few boosts.

Matt_Decker

Warship Doctor. I'm thinking Med-Sec-Cmd. But maybe Sci instead of Cmd? Similar to Command Hologram, but stronger as a legendary. Hopefully really solid Med stats.

RaraRacing

So ... if he's part of a re-run (which would be nice right after a Mega-event) then the Doc could be for either:

- Extinction Point: Hybrid with Scientist Degra, Lass and Stranded Odo;

- Plague of Plagues: Galaxy with "Dark Ages" McCoy, Danara Pel and Warship Chakotay.

- I don't think they'll run a straight Faction - as this event's one (that would be brutal).

Now if I re-read the event text for both ... they kinda both seem like a good fit for a Doc who wants to spread a disease amongst an innocent population.

Personal preference is for the Hybrid, as I need stars on Lass and have Degra at 1/5. But it is probably the other.

Anyway, my 2 cents.

EDIT: And what better event to follow up some Joy to the World ... good ol' mass extinction and plagues, ah yes touché.

jewelsofsound(STJ)

Either of those would be fine w/ me @RaraRacing!

I think I have Degra at 2/5* and don't have DA McCoy yet.
hmmm, I vote for hybrid event also.

ps. I have zero interest in running a single Ferengi shuttle this coming event. I usually run the 'underdog' faction the most, but this time will stock up on bloodwine from KCA regardless.

Not much chance, I think DB uses the Commander Peter Quincy Taggart mantra -
"Never Give Up, Never Surrender!"

I would lo e for it to be Plague of Plagues. My Dark Ages McCoy is 3/5.

I just need stars on my 2/5 Degra, but I'm rooting for this one too.

Do plague of plagues, I need a star for my dark ages mccoy.

"Extinction Point"
Rank 4*: Laas
Threshold 4*: Stranded Odo

"Plague of Plagues"
Rank 4*: Danara Pel
Threshold 4*: Warship Chakotay

For replays, these have sometimes been reversed. That'd suit me fine in either event, as I need two stars for Laas and three for Danara Pel.

Incidentally, in case anyone's curious, the next Faction Event in line to be replayed is "Alpha and Omega". The first run's Featured Crew:

5* Agent Janeway
4* Dr. Hippocrates Noah
4* Maquis Ro Laren

[10F] Beltalowda Bandit

Finally!!!!!! Evil Doctor woop!

Dr. Creon (¥SA)

Haven't been on here much lately but I have to say that I am excited for the Warship Doc.

@[H31] The Braavosi Bandit our wish is finally coming true!

With the Alpha and Omega pack being offered right now, it's probably not going to be the event in 2 weeks.

I'm generally in favor of any version of the Holo doc that doesn't sing opera

In both cases, I have one of the purples in cryo, the other at three stars, and am missing a much-wanted gold. I'm good with either!

I been saving them up, will definitely use them for this, I love that char.

Ironagedave

I so hope it’s plague of plagues 3rd star on DA McCoy event crew 3/4 and FE just what the doctor ordered but man I better stockpile chrons

Zetterbeard

Sincs I got Degra the other day, I would be fine with either rerun. Still leaning towards Plague of Plagues though.
