Riker leave's Troi takes command, it happens
To quote the man himself
“ He tasks me. He tasks me and I shall have him. I'll chase him round the moons of Nibia and round the Antares maelstrom and round Perdition's flames before I give him up”
I agree. I have Kirks and Picards for days. Kiras too lol.
not to mention another Kirk event after the rerun. looks like citing survivalist Kirk was the best decision I ever made.
Correct me if I'm wrong, I count 42 crew (not including Wrathful Kirk) and 37 are SuperRare or higher?
I doubt hope med will play a huge small part to the seating - Bashir will be on standby but I won't worry too much about that and avoid those missions if necessary.
Yup. I was threshold-and-out until this post.
Given the number of bonus crew - and especially the number of 5* bonus crew I have - I’m going to stick with a threshold-and-out approach this week. However, the original plan was to skate through this event with as little participation as possible in phase 2 by way of using some 3* time boosts. That plan is over, to preserve as many as possible for next week.
Survivalist Kirk is also the only Engineering crew.
That thought never occurred to me
If DB really wanted to go all-out on a Tuesday pack, they’d drop a 5* MED/COM/SEC (or maybe MED/COM/SCI) Kirok.
Medical only. he put that warm blankie on Pavel.
Y'know, in theory Wrathful Kirk was in the Genesis cave when he had his screaming-fest, and since he was taking care of Chekov you could argue he should have MED...and he did make that Genesis demo movie that Kruge watched, so you could argue for SCI too...
and for those who may have missed it, there was a terrific review in EW a few years ago about how "Wrath of Khan" is really a movie about acting:
...I can’t imagine we’ll be getting a Kirok anytime soon.
It would be a lot of Kirk all at once. I’d also say the poor way in which that episode aged would further lower the chances, but we have Duelist Yar...and, after checking the mission list on the wiki, there is a surprisingly large number of MED slots (not all of which are OR’d with other skills). Besides, after the tepid response to the crew in the last few weeks of the current mega, running out a desirable character right before a useful event could be financially lucrative - a good start for their Q3 balance sheet.
Guess I know my leveling priority for the next few days.

Actually, it's a fair point. In looking through my bonus crew, six of my top ten have CMD and DIP (although not necessarily as strong as La Rouque, and those aren't necessarily their best traits). Although having him wouldn't hurt, I'm not sure it would give me THAT much of an edge. And I would be able to save those resources for a character who would actually add something to my crew or that I love (aka Wrathful Kirk lol).
