Empire Deck Strategy

Mechad Holdfast

The key to the Mechad is in your unique ships' systems: EMF and Distortion Cannon. With EMF you have the ability to generate shields of a strength the other empires can only dream of (your S8 can have 16 points of EMF, for instance...). EMF is regenerated with the easy-to-generate energy while your opponents are scrambling for repair points or fragile economy points to convert. The

The Mechad/Tranoan combination is quite devastating.

Key cards:

• A4 Mechanization take control of opponent crew
• T8 System - Mechad System Mechad ships in play cause 1 extra point of subspace whipe (phaser) damage each turn
• T9 Planet - Mechad Planet - Arretia Mechad ships in fleet engage for 1 less energy
• T10 Super-massive Star supplies 10 energy for your EMF
