Star Trek Leaves Warp Out to Stay Distinct From Edge of Eternities

Mark Rosewater answered a fan asking why Warp was absent on November 7 with two reasons. The team wanted Star Trek to stay distinct from Edge of Eternities and was careful about reusing its mechanics. Warp would also need extensive structural support across the set to connect with its other elements, which Rosewater said would make Star Trek feel more like Edge of Eternities.

Rosewater said the team considered Station necessary because ships are so important to the property. Calling Warp “greedy” meant it needs support across the set, rather than standing alone; he did not name the specific cards or design components that support would involve.
