    h9rks0difjqc.pngAye thanks DB, a much more reasonable offer. I am tempted, but hes not adding a star to anyone so alas this time "im out". I am sure others will bite though.

    If this were Captain Lorca, they would already have my $10. I'm debating, as it stands. I may do it, but I have to think about it.

    P.S. if I buy, the fact that they appear to be listening will be a major driving factor.

    I see it as more of a "Nobody bought the $25 offers so we're trying this".

    I think the mass complaining on this forum every time the offer came up was falling on deaf ears.

    I'm all for these offers being 10 bucks (12.99 CAD in my case).

    right price, wrong legendary, sorry DB I would if I could but slots are still at a premium (too much bonus crew :p )

    Thanks to this offer, I was able to add another star to my Undercover Sulu. I hope DB continues to listen.

    Yeah I pulled the trigger on this one. It helps that I like the character and art, but even so, I wouldn't have bought it at $25. $10 is the "I don't have to think too hard about it" price for me. Hope others pounce on it and we get more at this price point.

    This is totally the right step „back“ to a more reasonable price. Please keep it up!

    I don’t have him so I am leaning toward getting him. It will give me something to do for a day or so...

    Thanks for going back to the lower price point. I am likely to buy at $10 for pretty much any card I already have. Sadly I don't have this Sulu and he's no good at 1/5 so I won't be buying but I plan to in the future if the price stays here.

    Yep, I bit. At $25 I wouldn't even have considered it, but at $10, for a character I like with good, and some nice chrons as a bonus? I'm in.

    If I had him, I would have added the star. But I don't have him. Nice offer though. Keep 'em coming.

    So long and thanks for all the fish.

    I’ve got crew slots to spare and he has a good collection of traits. Not the strongest, certainly not when compared to my other DIP/SEC gauntlet crew, of course - then again, it’s worth it to show DB that these offers are appreciated.

    I feel this $9.99 offer is a war of two divergent points: lowering the price point vs crew skills, and that is absolutely going to muddle the results no matter how the final numbers shake down.

    For me it breaks down like this:

    - On one hand I absolutely want to support this new price drop from $24.99 to $9.99 because I desire to contribute toward encouraging this price point to become the new standard...

    - On the other hand this is yet another crew offering with Command, Diplomacy, and Security, a combination even somebody as relatively new as myself is completely choked with already, and I desire to not encourage the seemingly endless parade of crew offers with this combination of crew skills.

    In short, I do not believe this initial offer will provide meaningful data, no matter how many are sold.

    A true test would be to offer up a legendary crew with at least two skills of Medicine, Engineering, or Science, which can be combined with no more than one skill from the Command, Diplomacy, or Security group (for example, Seven of Nine: Diplomacy, Engineering, Science) at $9.99.

    As others have said..

    Right price (right idea), wrong legendary. Sure, I’d love to support £10 deals, provided the legendary is actually worth it.

    I’d venture that whatever purchasing habits DB learn from this will be skewed. Surprisingly, possibly in favour of the deal, because so many want to like the offer. That novelty will wear off.

    Once it wears off, they can go back to the £25 offer after we all declare the ‘new’ 5* deal rubbish. And the Ferengi win again.

    If it was a good card like mirror Picard then I may bite, but this one, nope, not a chance.

    Me too. Would gladly have upped if I had him ... and the chrons alone are a decent deal. Please keep them coming like this though DB, it's a reasonable price point to make some stranded 1/5's vaguely useful...
    Accepted. Mark them, Galt.

    Kinda agree, & why I'm likely to buy this one so my $$ is voting yes on this price. I'll complain about the choice of legendary next time

    I had him at 5* ages ago. I just got it for the chronitons, credits and dilithium for $14.99 in AUD.

    Worth it for the chroma and credits alone. Another lonely one star but excellent ship ability, skillshot with no penalty.

    You make some great comments. In response to you concern though that stat combo is weighted heavily in the game overall. It is just a fact. I take a longer view. Over time I got 3 of this one from basic 10x packs so this was star 4. He is pretty good on the proficieny so I suspect at 4 stars he will make some voyages. And it is a pretty card. Would a solid ENG MED COM card be better? Yep. But there just are not a lot of those.
