Major Racal's Romulan Review

This series of articles written by Kathy McCracken (Major Rakal) explains all kinds of cards, strategies or rules. Even though lots of the articles were written from a Romulan point of view, the other affiliations aren't left out. I decided to include only a selection of her articles (some of them are out of date because of rules changes in the past years). A complete list of all articles and further more information can be found at Major's exillent homepage:
