I believe we're still waiting on Doctorstrongbad, pablo_price, and Hylianbunny, all who draw Leadership? I'll resolve the check in any case in a few hours if not everyone chimes in.

pablo_price, only one Basestar may be placed, which one? Also, if the Basestar attacks connect, should Galactica or Pegasus be damaged on the first and second hits?
I don't know how many games of this you've played, Pablo, but the expansion adds in some very difficult crises that will make you desperately wish you hadn't wasted those cards saving that Raptor if they hit.

In theory Starbuck and Apollo could choose not to draw it, but otherwise just Boomer, Cavil and Leoben.
Your not waiting for me.
You could just tell them you were busy.
Ssh. I'm not declaring an emergency.
Would you like me to say we were busy together?
edit: also, I guess I need to change my icon/status. that last game was so long that I got pretty used to boomer being there

That brings us to ten, and all we really need to look at is anything to compensate for destiny.
Thank you for playing IC.
Are we good with 13 out of 10? Do not want to waste cards on this check and be short on the next one.
On another note: why didn't you play that Declare Emergency on the previous check, Boomer?
If we look good then contributing zero cards.
