Picard/Beverly/Eurydice Crew Guide

This crew takes advantage of the bug that Scopely never fixed, namely that the armada leader passes on all the officer abilites to the rest of the ships in the armada. So if the leader has Bevery Crusher then everyone else with Beverly will use the defense the leader has from all officers to determine the power of her officer ability for every other ship too.

So taking a look at this crew, you have Eurydice being boosted by 120% by Picard because of his captain ability. This means everyone will have Eurydice boosted by 120%. So as long as everyone has t2 Eurydice, you have a 99% chance of always getting shields back every time they go down. Remembering how shields work, they absorb 80% of the damage you take, leaving only 20% to go to hull. This will happen even if that 80% damage is more than the shields have left. So as long as you have 1 shield health, you take 80% less hull damage. So she gives, you in this situation, a shield that lasts forever.

For normal armadas (Klingon, Fed, Romulan or Pirate) then you want to have the unlimited shield, plus mitigation, plus as much damage as possible. So there are several possible crews here. Benjamin Sisko as captain with Miles is great. Mitigation from the captain ability, extra shots and crits. In addition, there is extra critical damage from the leader having Picard.

Now, when facing cardassian uncommon armadas, they gain 10% critical damage every round. They start at 20% and crits from them hit for 300% of normal damage, so by round 8 they are critting 100% of the time, and a lot even before that. So we use Gaila to remove 50% crit damage per player. This means criticals do 300% damage minus 50% damage from every player with Gaila. So with a 5 person armada, critical hits hit for 100% of normal damage, 6 they hit for 50%, and with 7 they hit for 0% (so the armada does no damage after round 7).

With rare or epic Cardassian armadas, we use Troi to remove their crit chance. One with Beverly on the side will lower it to 2% chance, but they hit super hard (350% and 400% of normal damage), so usually it makes sense to have two. Then you can put damage crews for the rest.

Note: This crew only works on these armadas. Borg and Exchange armadas have weapons that shoot more than once in a round — Eurydice only procs once per weapon, not once per shot, and all shots from each weapon hit the same person. So you will run out of shields on the first shot, every other shot goes straight to hull.

If you do not have Picard, you can use Pike/Moreau instead of Picard/Bev — but you will probably die much quicker since you have no mitigation left.
