Psychological Pressure

(1) Psychological Pressure

Rare card from Call To Arms (2003)

"I can't believe you're willing to sacrifice Captain Picard's life as a negotiation tactic."

Punishment. Plays in your core. When an opponent's personnel is facing a dilemma, if he or she has the same skill as any of your captives, that opponent must discard a card from hand to use that skill.
