Star Trek: Das Card Game (expansion)

Star Trek: The Card Game is the base set of Star Trek: The Card Game. It is published by Modern Graphics in 1996. It covered the first season of Star Trek: The Original Series.

Modern Graphics distributed a German language version of this first set called "Star Trek - Das Card Game". There are a few of differences between the German Modern Graphics cards and the US versions, apart from the language. "Ben Childress" was not included in the German set, „Nehmt etwas Tranya” ("Have Some Tranya") has a different image and the Gefahr (Challenge) - „Die Frauen des Mr. Mudd” ("Mudd's Women") card is missing it's "Action" value. The second and final set "Starfleet Maneuvers" was based on the first half of the Original Series' second season. This set did not have a German version produced. A third set, "Alien Encounters", was planned but never produced.

Unlike in the Decipher game the main three crew members Kirk, Spock, McCoy and the USS Enterprise, were all ultra-common cards and were found exclusively in each starter deck. The rest of the cards were inserted with varying levels of rarity: Very Rare, Rare, Uncommon and Common. The top two cards in each booster pack were either rare or very rare, the next four were uncommon and the remaining nine cards were common.
