The History of Star Trek CCG: First Anthology

July 15, 2004

The First Anthology compiled samples of the first three sets with six new preview cards of varying utility. The box was prized for its utility as storage for "working" card collections or multiple decks. Aside from the possibility of pulling bridge crew or even a Future Enterprise from the packs, Dr. Telek R'Mor and Garak were probably the best of the premium cards.

Factoids

  • The rule booklet contained a number of changes from the original Alternate Universe rules sheet. Some were corrections to earlier errors, while others were newly introduced errors.

Notable Cards

Dr. Telek R'Mor was arguably the best Romulan produced to date. While his [AU] icon required an Alternate Universe Door to play, nearly all decks needed the doorway anyway for other reasons. R'Mor was the basis for a couple of powerful Romulan decks that sent several contenders to the first World Championships.
