Non-Lethal K.O.: Characters can be injured, which limits their ability to act until they are healed, but they cannot be killed. (The exception is The Crewman, who can protect other characters at his location from being injured by dying himself, only to reappear on the Bridge at the beginning of his next turn.) |

comment |
Almighty Janitor: The Janitor can fix the jump core single-handedly in a very short time as long as the other players can keep feeding him Engineering cards, thanks to his ability to trade actions for skill discounts (and the fact that he gains an additional action while carrying a tool). It's even more effective if you can manage to get the Epinephrine Ventilation upgrade, which gives everyone an additional action. (Discussed here and here.) |

Color-Coded for Your Convenience: Locations on the ship are color coded, and the ship systems are color coded based on where they are located: Blue (War Room): Captain's Journal Orange (Engineering): Jump Core, Teleporter Red (Bridge): Shields, Comm System, External Scanners Yellow (Armory): Torpedo Tube, Security Station Green (Science Lab): Upgrades, Research Station Purple (Infirmary): Trauma Station White (CPU Core): Computers, Internal Sensors Black (Cargo Hold): Cargo Pod Character cards are color coded, with matching character tokens of the same colors. The colors correspond to each character's rank, starting location, and general field of expertise. Blue (Rank 1): Admiral, First Officer Orange (Rank 2): Teleporter Chief, Chief Engineer Red (Rank 3): Tactical Officer, Telepath, Crewman Yellow (Rank 4): Weapons Officer, Soldier Green (Rank 5): Scholar, Science Officer, Cyborg Purple (Rank 6): Counselor, Medical Officer, Diplomat White (Rank 7): Ensign, Hologram, Janitor The Alert deck that drives the game is color coded. The players start off drawing the less severe Yellow Alerts, then progress to the more severe Orange Alerts, and finally end with the most severe Red Alerts. |

Informed Ability: As long as there are 12 or fewer hostile aliens on your ship, they won't move or attack, and will merely prevent you from using most ship systems until you kill them. But as soon as there are 13 or more hostile aliens on board, they supposedly take over the ship and you lose. |
