Hey,

Saw this through google looking for something else. Honestly, the game is not dead. There are a lot of Star Trek CCG players out there who play regularly. Check out Trekcc.org for the Player’s Committee who are working hard to keep the First Edition and Second Edition of the game alive with new cards, support, etc.

Thanks

I believe these cards to be valuable in a non-monetary way. I recently (2/2010) also started to rethink the fact I had these card merely collecting dust, all the while being an avid gamer. I realized that I had poor chance of finding any other gamers who had enough cards for a deck, so I gave up the idea of only building one deck. So I used the cards to develop my own modified version of the game, combining the “bright ideas” of the Warp Speed rules and the Sealed Decks modified gameplay, from back in the day. So, I built two identical decks for basic playability, with interchangable options for players who learn my modified game and want to use rares.
If anyone wants to discuss this or sell me their old collection, ox2000@gmail.com

ED: I was working at a comic shop at the time and we’d hold midnight tournaments for the latest and greatest of that week [and Star Trek got a couple week]s worth of tournaments.

I love those cards! I only played the game a few times (and it was cool too) but I liked collecting the cards anyway. I was working at a comic shop at the time and we’d hold midnight tournaments for the latest and greatest of that weeks worth of tournaments. It was fun. ‘Course, then Star Wars CCG took over…

We played it a couple of times before we got tired of it.

See… the truth is that it was 3am when we were playing Trivial Pursuit. Ed was getting tired and I felt really bad about DEMOLISHING him in the Star Trek CCG. So I let him win the Trivial Pursuit game. Yup… that’s why he won. It had nothing to do with the fact that I couldn’t answer ANY of those darn questions.

At least I got my revenge in Trivial Pursuit Silver Screen Edition. And you remember that old Klingon proverb, right?
“Revenge is a dish best served cold in the form of Trivial Pursuit.”
