Redshirts Card Game Gives You the Power to Boldly Eliminate Your Crew

The red shirt is a thing of legend in the Star Trek universe. If you are one of those officers with the misfortune of being assigned to security, you might want to schedule shore leave before Kirk sets course for the next mission. Otherwise you could end up like the poor folks in the Redshirts Card Game.

Designed by Jonathan “Skippy” Schwarz with art by David Reddick, the Redshirts Card Game is a light-hearted game of space exploration, betrayal, and murder for 2-7 players. Using two decks of cards—Captain’s Log and Redshirts—you get to decide the fate of your crew. According to the box your mission is:

“To discover hazardous news planets. To make contact with psychotic civilizations. To boldly eliminate your crew like no Captain has done before.”

Sounds like fun, right? If you’d like to venture into this truly final frontier you can get the Redshirts Card from ThinkGeek for $19.99. The set includes 108 cards, a rulebook, and lots of danger.

Take Command of Life with the ThinkGeek Inflatable Captain’s Chair

You long eyed Kirk’s chair. You survived hundreds of away missions in your red shirt. But when the Excelsior came available you were beaten to the punch by Sulu. Life just isn’t fair.

But don’t fret. ThinkGeek has a Captain’s Chair with your name on it. And best of all… it’s inflatable! That’s right. For just $24.99 you can take the Captain’s Chair wherever you like and command your crew with the buttons and lights that are printed on the arms. This officially licensed collectible makes commanding officers out of children and (small) adults and is sure to be a conversation starter when you whip it out at the local Starbucks.
