Using Heroclix for the Star Trek Adventures RPG pt. 1
Very nice initial build. My Help deck was inspired by Kathy Keefe's Help Deck. I think I put a link in the description to her deck, if you'd like to check it out, as well as see what changes I made to her deck, since I had access to Chameleon. Her deck didn't. I forget how well she did. I never played in those Tournaments. I played at GenCon twice. Once with 9 players, and the next year only 4 players, and then Wyvern died. I didn't do very well in either tournament : ( but I learned a lot : )
There's also a 2 Strength Dragon that can get help. Grendel might be the best Scout in the game, though he doesn't fly.
Help Decks are great. Powerful, but risky. I love playing them. Love putting Cyclops in, to protect against that risk
Awesome deck! Really don’t see many decks based around this theme.. I’d say a card like “City” from kingdom would fit in well here as it lets you selectively flip your cards face down. Secret treasure is another favorite of mine that is highly underrated. Aside from the ones you mentioned, I think you’re missing a few utility cards that are found in most decks - whirlpool is essentially a must to include (4x in my personal deck) for added card draw. Volcanic eruption is also a fantastic card, but is limited to 1 in each deck. Lastly, magnetic field is a staple (essentially a counter spell in Wyvern) that is a must include when playing against other decks with removal. It can make the game a little less fun though, so to each their own. Looks fun!
@@LikelyDavid Volcanic Eruption is restricted? Where can I find this info?
@@GM_AdmirAl Kiss of Le Succube is also restricted. It was in 'The Wyvern Shadow'. Course, I also learned about it from talking to players at Gen Con back in the day : )
I agree with all your points except for City. I don't think that card is worth a gold cost. I think it should be free. Cauldron is a fun deck to play though, no doubt : )
@@GM_AdmirAl I read that in a tournament someone would play Strangle Hold, then play Volcanic Eruption, and play Strangle Hold again, on Turn 1. Ouch. If they had 2 Volcanic Eruptions in their starting hand too... well... yeah...
@@GM_AdmirAl I thought I posted a reply but maybe it never actually sent.. you can find the most up to date rules (still from 97 lol) in the wyvern shadow newsletters online. I think there were 5 issues printed before it was discontinued.
Awesome. Love that you did a Deck Tech. Maybe we'll revive this game again at some point, but I'm having fun playing it regardless. I think you might have some gold issues with this deck. Rainbow and Windfall could help with that, so look for those cards too. Great video though.
@@Lightmane yeah, after our gold chat last night, I've been pondering how to adjust that!
@@GM_AdmirAl running out of gold isn't fun, but sometimes there's not much you can do. It just happens sometimes.
Any chance you could link the sites making the terrain to go inside these?

21:06 The 4th card in the pack is the rare.
10:25 I got some cards like that too when I opened some packs. No clue what that's all about. You might be right about it coming from cards with gold borders. Not sure what else it would be from.
You were limited to 1 copy of the original card, so you could only play 1 copy of the original Magnetic Field. I wish they had a 1 gold counter that countered Battle Actions. If only someone would bring back this great game. Hope you check out my posts on the Wyvern page : )
@@Lightmane I'd love to find a way to bring it back!
@@GM_AdmirAl me too.
See what Lazarus Rising Games can do. I remember their intention was to bring back more “dead” games.
Pretty cool to see a Wyvern Booster Box opening in 2024.
@@Lightmane I'm excited to get back into the game. Trying to hype up others too!
@GM_AdmirAl I play, and have made a few videos too
Awesome vid! Looks like you got a few good pulls here - as far as playing online goes, I maintain the Tabletop Simulator workshop items for the Wyvern TCG. We've had a few games on there & had quite a bit of fun! Feel free to reach out if you ever have any questions. Looks like its time for a chameleon box now x)
@@LikelyDavid I've got the Premiere box next. I'd love to find a Chameleon box.
@@LikelyDavid is there a Discord server for Wyvern?
So glad you filmed this! Phonex is a great set to complete. Congrats on the Trojan Horse too. There is a great interview online with the game's creator, Mike Fitzgerald, where he talks in detail about the origins of the game. Cheers!
@@spinscott Trojan Horse seems BONKERS
The Open Doors could use a Different outside or Inside Design, rather than the City Streets.
@danielramsey6141 I'll be honest, the doors are barely noticeable when attached, their design is kinda "meh". I don't even use them!
Great takeaways, Al! Having a bunch of JWs that then leaves your opponent with some "spare" negates for your other special cards... thank you for that insight!
@keithhartman9111 Yeah, my White Queen pin and my draw 3 never went off because I wasn't pulling as many negates as I'd like. Though some people were negating the chain initiators, some didn't.
Thanks for the review. I wanted to know what was in this, and you did a great job! 👍
@@geek_fleet_games Renegade really is doing some top notch work with these IPs!
Great unboxing. This looks like a pretty legit starter set. It looks like the rules are built into the adventure book. I felt it in my soul though when you tore open those dice boxes.
@@MichaelChadd there are no rules in the set. Would you have kept the boxes for the dice??
@@GM_AdmirAl From what i saw in another review there were some dice pool rules on page 10 so maybe its in the beginning and part of the GM screen too. Yep on the boxes. Something about tearing stuff that some with it would rub my goblin brain wrong. I always try to keep my sets pretty intact if I can and I always carry a Gerber EAB everywhere I go.
It has been years since I’ve looked at my copies, but I think the FFG Star Wars RPG starter sets included the rules as a play-along in the adventure. So when a mechanic would appear in the story, it would tell the GM how to run it. Could that be the case here? I have a lot more to say but I’m cooking breakfast right now so I’ll be back
@@TheFinalFrontiersmen they absolutely do. I used them for the one shots I ran.
@@GM_AdmirAl this set doesn’t do something similar? Maybe it’s not as obvious as the Star Wars booklets but hopefully they give direction for the GM as the adventure proceeds?
@thefinalfrontiersmen it doesn't. Even on their product page they say there's no rulebook. Wish I'd seen that before I bought it.
@ dang. That really is a huge mistake. Not that I’ve played countless games, but this is the first time I’ve heard of a “starter set” that doesn’t give you what you need to start. Truly truly truly unfortunate, as the contents of the box look spectacular otherwise. And it lowers my confidence that the rest of the game will be handled properly and with the consumer in mind.
So marvel overpower is back & has a Kickstarter? I can use my 1990s cards?
@teamcosmicseeds they don't have the Marvel License yet. Set 1 is Edgar Rice Burroughs and set 2 is Top Cow. The new stuff can absolutely play with the old stuff! There will be 3 formats for the game eventually. Modern Age is just the new cards and Golden Age is the new and old cards combined!
How would a rule change allow a jw to be negated?
In the new game, Negates are modifiers that hit in the "Astral Plane" and are not considered defenses.
@GM_AdmirAl I haven't got to play in a long time and am just getting back into it. But the JW-coded cards say it can't be defended. Would that text just be ignored? It seems pretty clear the intention of these cards was you needed to defend with power cards. Just want to make sure I understand.
