Patience, meatsack. Everything in it's own time. We will wait for your God-Emperor to waste his own resources before dooming you and yours to an everlasting existence in our farms.
So say we all.

The cylon virus successfully infiltrates Galactica's systems, causing a minor explosion in FTL Control - while the station is not damaged, Boomer suffers some burns and needs to go to the sickbay. Meanwhile, as raiders launch a centurion hidden aboard the hangar deck activates, heading towards environmental control.

Ahh. Well, I guess we just need to hope for some jump prep. No scouting though
I'll Move to the President's Office and play an Leadership 1 - XO on Boomer. Get out of that sickbay and over to the Armory, and take some potshots. If we can grab some jump prep, you can jump it and we'll win. If we can't, well, we want that centurion gone. Nuking the basestar may be poetic, but it's not the best choice at this time.
1d8=2 - half of the fleet is left behind in an attempt to escape the Cylons, but the remaining humans have reached Kobol, escaping the cylon menace!

Good to know the humans can win here without me on their team :P
Congratulations to the fleshlings!
There should be 3 population left in the final board status, but why quibble?
A: Because I'm anal :P

So, I was a sleeper-phase Cylon, and I can only assume that Baltar was a Cylon from the first. Clearing the admiral and then accusing me was a shrewd plan, but why not reveal when I let you out at the end?

I just didn't think it would accomplish as much as being free with a handful of cards with which to fuck up skill checks, and forcing them to waste more cards brigging me.
Really, it was just awful luck that you hit the Cylon card at the sleeper phase. I mean, you were the perfect target: you drew the same skill set as me, and went immediately before me.
The game made me think that a bit of indecision among the humans may be sometimes better than certainty, because it gives cylons in the brig hope, and so they languish instead of revealing.
It seems to me that unless there's likely going to be a situation where you're going to do a whole lot of damage, doing what damage you can and then revealing safely out of the brig is a good plan, because you maximize your time in the cylon fleet serving up hard hits and negative cards every turn.

On the other hand, I have got a goodbye present for your dirty toasters before we jump away, but that's going to have to wait until next turn.
Fuel up the missiles boys, and open the launch tube doors.

Boomer, can you repair the FTL once again?

Forced Water Mining
You're going to tell your men to help us get that water off the moon. - Lee Adama
God-Emperor Adama chooses:
A) Skill Check (Difficulty 17: Politics, Leadership, Tactics, Engineering)
Pass: +1 food
Fail: -1 population, -1 morale
or
<activate raiders>
<jump prep>
Option B Please
To speed this up a bit, as we have the resources to take the hit, and don't want to risk the pop loss.
Pull the lever, Boomer!
Raiders move along; the fleet is able to jump at risk.
Not going to repost the status update until after Boomer's turn; so if you're going to punch it, do so. :P
Wait, was that bad? Whoops. :P
I have no idea what that red button does, but it can't be good.

Yeah, well played, human scum.
