    This personnel will kick the door wide open on possible Bajoran deck designs. Put simply, anything the Federation can do, the Bajorans can too. Take Riker Wil to the location of your Fed mission, and it magically gains a Bajoran icon. In all the planning for Riker Wil's special skill, though, don't overlook his regular skills. Diplomacy, Leadership, and Treachery (and his existing SECURITY classification) will slip nicely into existing Bajoran deck types. Music increases the yield on another very Federation-style strategy: the Ressikan Flute deck.

     

    Combo:

    • Riker Wil + Diplomacy Mission + Investigate Massacre, etc. : This classic Federation Diplomacy archetype works great for the Bajorans, with Bareil Antos, Kai Winn, and others (including, of course, Riker himself) providing the key skills.
