Ok I think Ive given up the 100 deck idea i have like
75ish now and am going to stop,since ther has been some
interest in deck desghn Im going to gradully post short
descriptions of all my decks starting w/ my oldest-

Orgon#1
This deck is centered around the T5 globual that lets u
put an orgon back in your hand as a reaction.Opviusly the
globs need protection:4 C5 Exogeoligists w/2 transporter
Chiefs?
and a bunch of transporter and instant reactions to make
the C5 be everywhere at once,3 of the H6 that makes a
crew be at 2 locations at once plus R/A 1 Personal
Transportation to scoot around even more.
The Orgons in the deck are heavy on the ones that dont
need engagement

#2(my favorite deck)

Scorpead NOW!

This deck is centered around cards that would let me bring
my ships in engaged,plus planets that are played in the
allocation phase,as a minor I have a couple of D8 Moon
Dragonesses that come in fully engaged.L5 Temporal loophole
and R/O6 resorce thieft(?) are the heart of the coming in
engaged cards,3 T7 fantasy systems and 3 L7 Star Gates give
me the extra card plays I need to get this to work.

Scorpead here-and-there deck

Take your run of the mill scorpead deck w/ a boat load of
phaser refits and mix in a bunch ofR/E2 Transport Shuttles
and instant reactions.you are constantly moving the
equipment around to get around phaser malfunction and even
increacing volleys by moving E9 Future ships and E7
magnifier refits and C5 weapons officers

Treglean Soldier of fortune deck

The C4 Soldier of Fortune lets your opponents fire the
weapons of the minor ship he is on by paying the ships
engagement costs-enter the Tranoan patrol ship w/ZERO
engagement cost and say a E4 phaser refit on it.Everybody
starts blasting each other w/ the 3 time phasers,also in
the deck are S6 Lone Wolf command crusiers w/low
engagement and 7 phasers.
Its hilarius to see everybody hating the soldier and then
using their own defence cards on his ship so they can use
it.Last time I played this deck it worked so good Im
probably not going to be able to play it for another
year!

Leopan Beastmaster.
Leopan is my goto race when I dont use a lot of E or C in
a deck(usually).This deck has 8 R/1 Sextarian WebCrawlers
and M up to M10s Zagoth Mordeth and Zagothe Gaurdian.The
key to this deck is the R/O 3 Metamorphasis that lets you
exchange a lets say M6 for 6 webcrallers and puts them
into play.If your lucky enuff to get the Zagoth Mordeth
out each webcrawler does 4 damage and each phase u can
Instant reaction 1 webcraller for another 4(remember
Instant reaction can only be used once a phase and can
only react each webcraller once a turn)

#8(last one for the night)

Argonian All Pak deck

We use a standard 6 card reserve fleet and into this
place 3 Paktadon S7s and 2 Paktadon T9 planets.the deck
is geared around having 7s and 9s so you can get out the
stuff you want,Also the 2 R/O8 Reserve Call ups dont
hurt.R/O4 Discard Exchange keeps the cards u want alive
PS the paktadon planet lets the paktadon retarget a ship
that already been targeted by weapons fire-Can u say how
many defence cards do you really have,although R/L 2
Phaser Malfuctions kinda cut youe samosas off

corp,Scorp and POT unique decks

standard for the race w/the change that each deck has about
20 cards in it that are not commonly played like say L5
Galactic Paint Brush,O5 sudden migration

fun to play but your not going to win w/one of these

Zedan Retribution Deck

This ones nasty. I made it because my group went on a
bender of ganging up on me.The idea behind this deck is
you can shoot me but you will PAY!First of all the Zedan
shoot back their heavy weapons when fired upon,for minor
I have Garsain that shoot phasers back(remember you can
only have 1 S8 and 1 S9 Garshain in any deck due to the
technology rules)R/L 6 Spotanius Combustion,R/L O 6 and 9
Pendulem effect,E5 Volital cargo and R/O5 Volitile
Terrain all punish your attacker for shooting at you.How
dare they!

Leopan Asteroid deck

8 R/T2 Asteroid Shields make the heart of this deck.Stir
in extra R/L5 heavy weapons backfire and R/O4 repair
delivery
to protect the shields.Like any deck centered on a defence
card,it does well

Leopan TT deck .Ok of all the decks Ive posted so far this
is the one that you most have to be 'Mr Suitcase 'for
8 R/H2 Time Traps w/ crew to buy them off and the ever
popular instant reaction to move them around.R/O7
Scientific breakthrough will buy off 3 of them at once
Again built around a defence card so it plays well

Tufor Deadshot-Tufor have not got a mention up to this
point but I LOVE the mines as you will see in future decks
they are not a one trick pony.This deck can be made w/
fairly common cards H1 Divergant Anomalys(H3 if you
gotem),H1 Time warp,H10 Time warpH4 warp funnel and of
course E3 stasis mine all make your opponents ships go away
allowing you to strike sector HQ directly

Corp prob deck

this deck has 8 E3 boring probes in it.the probe is worded
so that it can move against amy card.I once drilled into
the head of a C6 Cyber mage.This card is the closest thing
we get to a missle in the game,nice synergy w/ corps
ability to blow up planets

Dragon Timewave

This deck will make you a lot of enimies fast and will not
win many games but boy is it fun!The D5 Void Dragoness
allows you to double a hazard card so play plenty of
H5,7 and 9 Time waves and let the discarding begin.The last
time one of my freinds palyed this I was down to 1 terrain
card and one ship in play,and it was like turn 7

Leopan Muteneer deck.

wow did this deck excede my wildest fantasys
4 R/C 5 Muteneers,3 C6 clones and lots of ability cards
to buff the muteners(C6 Clone Copys the STACK not just
the C cards.I had 2 huge stacks of muteneer nastyness
(One was a clone)w/lots of transportation to get around
and an A6 Officers sword to fend off pesky marines.I
fought 2 players simultaniously and killed them both(plus
one even had a lot of crew killing in his deck!)I would
shoot at one and keep the other down w/the muteneers,the
only reason I came in second was my son was palying a PSY
deck so my Muteneres wer useless against him

Chris' J'xar

My friend always complains when the Phillepos show up so
when I made a deck for him,I included my last set.
A lot of crew and equipment that gets reused when the
smaller J'x ships are recalled,like R/C6 Time Assault
teams,r/c6 damage control teams and fighters
has D as its 8th letter w/ lots o scitalating dragons and A
crds to buff them
