    Although Bractor has only three regular skills to speak of, he is packed tight with dilemma-passing goodness. Any Ferengi deck expecting to solve any space missions would be making a big mistake if it did not include him. For three of the worst wall dilemmas in space, he provides a piece of the requirements needed to pass them. His OFFICER and STRENGTH of 6 help to pass "Maglock," his SCIENCE helps to pass the difficult Scientific Method and his Stellar Cartography helps to pass Navigational Hazards. And the laundry list doesn't end there. There are several other dangerous dilemmas with which Bractor can be of assistance: Stellar Flare, Hazardous Duty, Crystalline Entity (especially deadly when doubled by Lore), Punishment Box, Crisis, etc. etc. etc. And the list goes on.

    Bractor also has a special download of Commandeer Ship, in honor of his attempt to take the U.S.S. Hathaway for his own. Like the Klingon Kavok, Bractor can be used in conjunction with Devidian Door to surprise your opponent by quickly taking one of his ships for your own. However, to use Bractor this way you'll need to supply the needed Computer Skill required by Commandeer Ship (perhaps with a second Devidian Door).

    Combo:

    • Bractor + Kreechta + Captain’s Log + Picard Maneuver: If your opponent wants to attack you, they'll have to win a random coin toss. If they succeed, then they'll have to deal with your bloated WEAPONS and SHIELDS.
