    Automated Security System

    This Card-Review article was written by Evan Lorentz and was published first on "Decipher's Website (decipher.com)" at Jul 11th, 1998.

    If you're playing Cardassian, the Automated Security System is both the perfect way to defend your station, and a great start on taking your opponent's. You can play the event on your own Opsimage - so long as you aren't planning on leaving any non-aligned personnel there, you have nothing to fear. Of course, an opponent trying to commandeer your station won't be so lucky! If you're looking to take Deep Space 9 / Terok Nor back from the Bajorans, you can start by clearing out Ops with the Security System. Then it's just a matter of showing up with Computer Skill and taking over!

    Combos:

    • Automated Security System + Garak's Tailor Shopimage: The Shop gives you a point of entry to march up to Ops after you've cleared it.
    • Automated Security System + Evekimage (or Garakimage or Ocettimage or Madredimage): Playing the System on your own Ops can work on Deep Space 9, too.
