Abandon Ship!

Promotion card from Tournament Sealed Deck (1998)

Krenim attacks repeatedly damaged the U.S.S. Voyager. Failing life support systems led Captain Kathryn Janeway to order the evacuation of all personnel except senior staff.

Space Dilemma

If ship damaged or RANGE reduced, personnel not needed for staffing are placed with dilemma atop mission. Rescue (opponent may capture) personnel with different ship here.

Rule notes

Major Rakal's Dilemma Facts

If ship is not damaged and RANGE not reduced, discard dilemma and continue to next. Otherwise, choose personnel required for staffing ( can sub for ; affiliated ship requires one matching personnel). Place others with dilemma on top of mission. Rest of crew is not "stopped" and must continue to next dilemma. Discard dilemma when you rescue personnel with another ship (after mission attempt is over) or opponent captures them (on his turn; relocate to opponent's ship).

Official Runlings:

For this dilemma, you may choose which of your personnel will fulfill the staffing requirements. A personnel may fill a requirement. In addition to printed staffing requirements (if any), a ship requires at least one matching personnel aboard to be staffed (see matching affiliation).

You may not rescue or capture the abandoned personnel during a mission or scouting attempt or during your opponent's turn.
