I don't know what you're talking about. It clearly doesn't say that.

I discard Leadership 2 - Executive Order and move to the President's Office. I then activate the President's Office. Hylianbunny, you forgot to send me my initial Quorum card.

Someone might want to move to administration. There are a lot of Politics challenges, and we're looking at only three (possibly four) total politics between all of us, and if Chief is a Cylon, that's going to mean I'm the only one with politics helping us.

Discarding a Leadership 2 (Executive Order), Gaius Baltar decides to quit slacking and moves to his cushy office, reviewing his options...lazily.

Cards are sent.

It's a labour of love, and isn't quite done yet, but I'd be glad to when I get the final version finished.

Okay, I play:

Release Cylon Mugshots

The Cylons have the ability to mimic human form: they look like us now. This man has been identified as a Cylon agent. We believe him to be responsible for the bombing. - Laura Roslin

Action: Look at one random Loyalty Card belonging to any other player, then roll a die. If 3 or less, lose 1 morale. Then discard this card.

on William Adama.
It's imperative we make sure our Admiral isn't a Cylon, since he's in position to frak with us the most (getting to make jump check choices), and it's best to do it now before we've all got two cards.

President Baltar holds a conference, distributing mugshots among the fleet's captains. 1d8=4

The fleet appears to be alright, if slightly uncomfortable, with this and so no morale is lost. However, the fleet is suffering from...


Crisis
Sleep Deprivation



Five days now. There are limits...to the human body. The human mind. Tolerances you can't push beyond. - Gaius Baltar

Admiral William Adama must choose to either:

A) Return all undamaged vipers on the game board to the 'Reserves'. Then send the current player (President Gaius Baltar) to Sickbay.

or

B) -1 Morale.

<Activate Basestars>
<Jump Prep>

There is no skill check for this crisis - it is a straight decision.

Adama isn't a Cylon.

There is no skill check. We either return all the vipers to the reserves and send me to Sickbay, or take a morale hit. I'd recommend A, and then have someone XO me out of Sickbay before my next turn. But it's Adama's choice.

And I'll take a Politics card for my last draw.

I'd rather not take the morale hit this early in the game.

I'm choosing Option A: Return all undamaged vipers on the game board to the 'Reserves'. Then send the current player (President Gaius Baltar) to Sickbay.

Helo loses his turn, so it looks like Starbuck should launch herself and move to 3 to prepare to intercept the raiders once they reach the civilian ships.

We'll get the president out of sickbay, and hope we don't lose anything important to basestar shots.

Admiral Adama opts to give the pilots a brief rest, despite the impending Cylon attack. All vipers are recalled to Galactica, and President Baltar, overworked, moves to Sickbay.

The Basestar threatening Galactica fires, scoring a hit on Weapons Control, but no essential personnel are injured. 1d8=4


[/B]

Players and Turn Order

Thanatos - President Gaius Baltar - Resting in Sickbay.
jdarksun - Karl 'Helo' Agathon - Running for his life on Caprica
Osvik - Kara 'Starbuck' Thrace - Yelling at knuckledraggers in the Hangar Deck
Plutonium - Admiral William Adama - Working on his model ship in the Admiral's Quarters
FrostMist - Sharon 'Boomer' Valerii - Checking all the weapons in the Armory
TheMadjai - Galen Tyrol - Bossing people around in the Hangar Deck

Resources

Fuel 8. Food 8. Morale 10. Population 12.
Jump Track: Start
Boarding Party: Clear
Raptors: 4 In Reserve
Vipers: 8 in Reserve, 0 in Use
Nukes: 2
Galactica Damage: Weapons Control

Space

1 O'Clock: Clear
3 O'Clock: 2 Civilian Ships
5 O'Clock: Clear
7 O'Clock: Clear
9 O'Clock: 1 Basestar(Undamaged), 3 Raiders
11 O'Clock: Clear

Helo is still stranded on Caprica, so another crisis is inbound.

Though Helo is still unavailable, the human fleet has another crisis on their hands to deal with.

Crisis
Food Shortage



Get the names of those ships. Tell their captains to go on emergency rations immediately. - Laura Roslin

President Gaius Baltar must choose either:

A) -2 Food.

or

B) -1 Food. The President discards 2 Skill Cards: then the current player discards 3 Skill Cards.

<Activate Raiders>

Frak. That's valuable food, but it's also 5 frakking skill cards. Sorry, Helo.

I think I have to go with B. I discard Engineering 3 - Scientific Research and Politics 1 - Consolidate Power.

And no offense, Hylianbunny, but I really like Darian's color scheme considerably more. The pastels just aren't doing it for me. It feels like we're playing "Battlethtar Galactica" and fighting the "Thylonth."

Fair enough. It's not too difficult to tweak, anyway.

President Baltar works out a plan to deal with the food shortage (Engineering 3 and Politics 1) while Helo uses a number of resources in his escape from Caprica (pending). The fleet uses significantly less food than they would have otherwise.

Raiders begin their approach, intending to pick off the civilian ships.




Players and Turn Order

Thanatos - President Gaius Baltar - Resting in Sickbay.
jdarksun - Karl 'Helo' Agathon - Running for his life on Caprica
Osvik - Kara 'Starbuck' Thrace - Yelling at knuckledraggers in the Hangar Deck
Plutonium - Admiral William Adama - Working on his model ship in the Admiral's Quarters
FrostMist - Sharon 'Boomer' Valerii - Checking all the weapons in the Armory
TheMadjai - Galen Tyrol - Bossing people around in the Hangar Deck

Resources

Fuel 8. Food 7. Morale 10. Population 12.
Jump Track: 2/5 Jump Prep (cannot yet jump)
Boarding Party: Clear
Raptors: 4 In Reserve
Vipers: 8 in Reserve, 0 in Use
Nukes: 2
Galactica Damage: Weapons Control

Space

1 O'Clock: Clear
3 O'Clock: 2 Civilian Ships
5 O'Clock: Clear
7 O'Clock: Clear
9 O'Clock: 1 Basestar(Undamaged)
11 O'Clock: 3 Raiders

Starbuck is sick of yelling at the mechanics and ready for some action.

What would you like for your multi-skill?
