Initial Deployment
The Cardassian player opted to deploy on the left hand side of the table. The Federation player decided to deploy his ships on a 45 degree angle in keeping with the spirit of the scenario, feeling that his ships would be in a search pattern as the Cardassians emerged from the depth of the asteroid field.
