Star Trek™ Design Log

These are the voyages of the TCG Design Studio. Its continuing mission:
     to explore strange new rules...
     to seek out new card images and new game mechanics...
     to boldly go where no TCG has gone before!

On May 1st, 2002, Decipher opened up the "exploration" process for a possible new Star Trek trading card game to participation and input from the Star Trek gaming community. A gameplay survey that garnered over 1,000 responses, an extremely active message board, and a weekend in-house demo/playtest with community representatives have given the design team plenty of fuel for their voyage of exploration.

And we want to keep you, the Star Trek gaming community, involved in the continuing mission. Accordingly, I will be bringing you intermittent (about one to three a week) entries in a Star Trek Design Log, keeping you informed of what the game designers and artists are working on. Watch the decipher.com home page for news of the latest entries, or bookmark this page where I'll be indexing every log entry.

If there's a particular aspect of the development process you'd like to read about, please email me at majorrakal@decipher.com and I'll see what I can come up with.
