    The Romulans have come a long way from the days of a single Tal Shiar personnel (and one mission to solve with that skill). The latest addition to the ranks of the Tal Shiar, Lovok carries a full complement of useful skills. He can enable Plans of the Tal Shiarimage espionage, act as a battle leader, even against other Romulans, with HQ: Defensive Measuresimage and help solve Espionage Missionimage, Quash Conspiracyimage and other Tal Shiar missions. In addition, Navigation gets you past all kinds of hazards, Computer Skill lets him commandeer Nors, and Transporter Skill will let you beam through SHIELDS with Dropping Inimage and help cure Vantika's Neural Pathwaysimage. In addition to his OFFICER classification he also has SCIENCE skill, both useful for a variety of mission requirements.

    But perhaps his most important use will be as a defense against infiltration by those treacherous changelings. If your opponent infiltrates your crew or Away Team with the Lovok Founder, all you need to do to expose the impersonator is confront him with the real thing. After the founder is exposed, Lovok himself can lead an attack on the intruder.

    Combos:

    • Lovok + Devidian Doorimage: Wherever the infiltrator shows up, play Lovok directly into the crew or Away Team to immediately expose him.
    • Lovok + D'deridex Advancedimage: Keep the ship's stats up with his Tal Shiar skill, while benefiting from his SCIENCE and Navigation skills for space missions.
