Cross-Series Away Teams Game

This idea actually came from another thread, but I thought it might make an interesting game of sorts.

You have to fill out a five-person away team, comprising of a main character from each TV series. Each team must contain: a team leader, a security officer, and a science (or operations) officer. The other two posts can be filled by “mission specialists”, from a medic, to an engineer, to added security, whatever you fancy.

For example, on a diplomatic mission to planet Amazonia:-
Team Leader: Captain Kathryn Janeway (VOY)
Sci/Ops Officer: Sub-Commander T’Pol (ENT)
Security Officer: Lieutenant Natasha Yar (TNG)
Comm Officer (Linguist): Lieutenant Uhura (TOS)
Counsellor (former Ambassador): Lieutenant JG Ezri Dax (DS9)
 
Rescue/repair mission to a damaged alien spacecraft

Team Leader: Kathryn Janeway (Voy)
Security: Reed (Ent)
Science: Jadzia Dax (DS9)
Doctor: McCoy (Star Trek)
Engineer: O'Brien (TNG for this game!)
 
Is this a peace mission or a war mission? That heavily affects the answer.

War answer:

Strategist/Team leader: Benjamin Sisko (DS9)
Security: Worf (TNG)
Science: Seven (Voyager)
Tactician/Co-team Leader: James T Kirk (TOS)
Engineer: Trip (Ent)

Peace answer:

Team leader: James T Kirk (TOS)
Security: Odo (DS9)
Science: Data (TNG)
Medic: The Doctor (Voyager)
Bonus diplomat: T'Pol (Ent)
 
It's whatever you want to make it.

Superhero away mission:-
Team Leader: Spock (intellect and telepathic)
Sci/Ops Officer: Data (for superhuman strength and speed)
Security Officer: Odo (pretty obvious really)
Engineer: Trip (resurrection abilities [see novelverse :)])
Medic: Kes (plethora of mental abilities)
 
Espionage team:

Team Leader: James T. Kirk
Science: Seven Of Nine
Security: Odo
Language Specialist: Hoshi Sato
Empath: Deanna Troi*

*Yes, I'm actually suggesting that Troi would be useful.
 
The fix it crew

Scotty (Leader)
Geordi
O'Brien
Trip
Tuvok



The most exact away team EVER

Spock (Team Leader)
Data

Shore Leave on Risa!:

Commander Shelby, Away Team Leader (TNG)
Lt. Moreau, Science (TOS)
Lt. Talas, Security (ENT)
Leeta, (DS9), and Jenny Delaney, (VOY), "Mission Specialists", IYKWIMAITYD

Medical mission

Beverly
Bashir
EMH
Phlox

Ladies' Man

Good Question! My swiss army knife of aways team would be:

Captain Kirk
Data
Odo
O'Brien
The Doctor

My wildcard away team would be:

Kirk
Jadzia Dax
Worf
Tom Paris
Seven of Nine

Just for fun, here's the opposite of the perfect away team (or dead in 60 seconds!):

(season one) Sisko
Chekov
Harry Kim
LaForge
Nelix
 
I can top that: The Most Ineffective Away Team Ever
