X-Files Card Combo:
Margi Kleinjan & Terri Roberts
by Andy Grauman
Perhaps the strongest
card combination in the
101361 Expansion for the
X-Files Collectible Card
Game is the Adversaries
Margi Kleinjan and Terri
Roberts. These two cards
alone put a little more
bite in the Adversary card suit.
Playing either the Margi
Kleinjan (Activator Affiliation Site)
or Terri Roberts (Activator Result
Site) card, allows you to play the
other one immediately, ignoring
Activator requirements. This isn't
the only benefit, however. When
played together, both Margi and
Terri's Long Range Combat (LRC),
Close Range Combat (CRC), and
Health, double. Play them on an
Occult Investigation Site and they
triple. Finally, when played togeth-
er, both Margi and Terri attack
simultaneously. Thus, it is treated
as one combat.

What does this mean for game-
play? If you play these two
Adversaries on either an Activator
Affiliation or Result Site (half of all
Sites), you get two LRC 4, CRC 4,
and Health 4 Adversaries that
attack simultaneously for a cost of
only 6 Conspiracy Points (CP). If
the Site happens to utilize the
Occult Investigation skill, the
Adversaries both become LRC 6,
CRC 6, and Health 6,
for the same 6 CP.
This combination
should mow down
almost any team of
Agents. No other
Adversary combina-
tion provides the flexi-
bility and cost effectiveness of
Margi Kleinjan and Terri Roberts.
Incidentally, both Margi and Terri
are commons, so you should have
no trouble acquiring them.

Just who are these two vixens of
destruction? Both Margi Kleinjan
and Terri Roberts appeared in the
third season X-Files episode,
Syzygy. A rare planetary alignment
made the two girls the focus of all
the energy in the cosmos for one
day, their birthday. Alone, both
could cause a fair amount of dam-
age. Together, their powers fed off
one another and caused death and
destruction which was only
stopped by the clock striking mid-
night. True to the show, they have
similar capabilities in the X-Files
CCG. Put two of each Adversary,
Margi Kleinjan and Terri Roberts,
in your hand, and your opponent
should become quite familiar with
their Hospital section.
