Koraga.<\/i><\/b>\u00a0 The K\u2019vort class Bird-of-Prey sports solid attack potential as well as an extremely durable hull to keep the ship in the fight for the whole game.\u00a0 The <b><i>I.K.S. Koraga <\/i><\/b>has the added benefit of rolling one additional defensive die each time it defends while cloaked. This defensive bump will be greatly appreciated by the two attack-minded captains: <i>Worf <\/i>and<i> Kurn<\/i>.\u00a0 <i>Worf\u2019s <\/i>attacks have a greater chance to hit due to his ability to reroll all of your blank results while <i>Kurn<\/i> can be given an action to gain one additional attack die (at the added cost of an Auxiliary Power Token).<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-6136\" src=\"http:\/\/wizkidsgames.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/11\/I.K.S.-Koraga.jpg\" alt=\"I.K.S.

Koraga<\/i><\/b>, is going to get good use out of the two new Crew cards as well.\u00a0 Fans of <i>Drex<\/i> will appreciate the ability to get another unique crew member with the same ability: <i>N\u2019Garen<\/i>.\u00a0 <i>Worf\u2019s <\/i>son, <i>Alexander<\/i> has the amazing ability to store Battle Station tokens on his card every time his ship is hit for use on subsequent turns.\u00a0 During the Activation Phase, he is allowed to take one Battle Station Token off of his card and place it next to his ship.\u00a0 This will work extremely well when paired with the 5 point <i>Photon Torpedoes<\/i> in the expansion as they allow the player to change one Battle Station result into a Critical Hit so his Battle Station tokens can be saved for use on a defensive roll.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<i><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-6137\" src=\"http:\/\/wizkidsgames.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/11\/Klingon_Crew_NGarenpsd.jpg\" alt=\"Klingon_Crew_N'Garenpsd\" width=\"181\" height=\"232\" \/> <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-6141\" src=\"http:\/\/wizkidsgames.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/11\/Klingon_Crew_Alexander.jpg\" alt=\"Klingon_Crew_Alexander\" width=\"181\" height=\"232\" \/> <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-6138\" src=\"http:\/\/wizkidsgames.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/11\/Klingon_Weapon_PhotonTorpedoes.jpg\" alt=\"Klingon_Weapon_PhotonTorpedoes\" width=\"181\" height=\"232\" \/><\/i><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\">Rounding out the expansion are two Tech Upgrades that we have seen before in the starter: <i>Advanced Weapon System<\/i> which allows a ship to remain cloaked after firing and a Klingon <i>EM Pulse<\/i> which will hamper the opponent\u2019s effectiveness.\u00a0 Both Tech upgrades will complement the ship well but with only a single Tech Upgrade slot, the player will have to choose wisely especially as they are building their fleet for use in the accompanying <i>Patrol the Badlands<\/i> scenario.\u00a0 The nimble movement dial of the <b><i>I.K.S. Koraga<\/i><\/b> will definitely come in handy while navigating thru the 12 Plasma Storm terrain tokens and attempting to avoid the Gravitational Anomaly while gathering intelligence and reporting back to Klingon High Command.<\/p>\n<p>As you can see, the <b><i>I.K.S. Koraga<\/i><\/b> is going to end up being a staple in many Klingon fleets come December.\u00a0 With all of its upgrades and Effect Tokens which assist players in remembering bonuses, the Klingons are one step closer to stopping the Dominion advancement into the Alpha Quadrant.\u00a0 Stay with us next week when we take a look at a Dominion ship that is going to make that task much more difficult: the <b><i>Koranak<\/i><\/b>!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Star Trek: Attack Wing I.K.S.
