Edition Power Text History
FFG You have the power to Cling. Whenever another player retrieves one or more ships from the warp, you may use this power to retrieve one of your ships from the warp as well. You may not retrieve a ship from the warp during the same encounter in which it went to the warp.
Whenever another player draws one or more cards from the deck, you may use this power to draw one card from the deck as well.
The universe's original tag-alongs, the Remoras first reached space as the valued servants of the dominant race on their homeworld. Seldom accomplishing anything for themselves, the Remoras simply make themselves useful to to others and then ride their coat-tails to victory. Although other races might chide them for a lack of drive, the Remoras simply wonder why they should give up a good thing.

Strategy[]

Remora gets comparatively stronger as time goes on. Its power means that it recovers from defeats or card losses more quickly than other aliens, so it maintains its early strength throughout the game while its opponents' strengths shrink. Therefore it is in Remora's interest to prolong play.
