Song popped into my head this morning...

"there must be some kind of way outta here..."

Does that mean I'm a Cylon?

I'll make sure you are.

Getting the sheet prepared now. But first I'll shuffle turn order and people can start picking characters. Note for ease of reference, characters in the first post are listed in order of their 'main' line of succession (admiral for military, president for political, CAG for pilot, and N/A for support)

Tables · « **Reply #28 on:** February 28, 2013, 07:44:41 am »

Player order
Jorbles
Grujah
WinterSpartan
Davio
theorel
Qvist

Jorbles, you're first to choose a character. You have free choice of any character.

Davio · « **Reply #29 on:** February 28, 2013, 07:50:02 am »

Okay, a quick note to everyone who might have forgotten: You MUST pick a character from a group which still has the most characters OR a Support character. Ties for first count as all groups having the most (may pick from all).

There are four of each Military, Political and Pilot and two of Support.
So after the first player picks Military for instance, the second player may only pick Political, Pilot or Support.
If he picks Political, the third may only pick Pilot or Support and so on.

Players may always pick Support, leaving the pick from the group with the most characters to the next player.

Tables · « **Reply #30 on:** February 28, 2013, 07:52:05 am »

Yup, that. Also I've updated some PBF rules into the first post.

If you don't think your loyalty will change what your starting draw would be, feel free to choose your starting three cards (as the first player Jorbles instead gets his full draw, so won't need to do this).

Qvist · « **Reply #32 on:** February 28, 2013, 10:25:09 am »

Oh no, I still haven't read the rules yet. I will do that as soon as possible.

WinterSpartan · « **Reply #33 on:** February 28, 2013, 10:43:33 am »

Kind of glad I'm third. I always have a hard time choosing when all options are in play.

While I'm thinking about it though: Tables, do you accept COs (conditional orders) by PM? I've seen in the past that those can really help speed up gameplay.

Edit: Nevermind, the updated first post answers my question. I'll send you my CO for character selection in a bit.

Tables · « **Reply #34 on:** February 28, 2013, 10:51:05 am »

Yes, and further, just to clarify, I only accept CO's from PM (except during pregame, where I'm not too fussed if you're character choice is public). If you make a public CO and nothing via PM, I'm just going to ignore it (it's to protect Cylon's right to lie mainly)

Jorbles · « **Reply #35 on:** February 28, 2013, 02:15:05 pm »

Ugh, too many choices. Well better pick based on what characters I enjoyed in the show.

Tables · « **Reply #36 on:** February 28, 2013, 02:24:22 pm »

Jorbles picks "Chief" Galen Tyrol

Grujah is next, you can pick any other character.

Well yeah, I'm just going to pick by that definition as well, not really going to pay much attention to actual abilities.

Grujah · « **Reply #38 on:** February 28, 2013, 04:20:31 pm »

I'm thinking:

Apollo, Halo or Ellen Tigh, in that order.

Any suggestions?

Tables · « **Reply #39 on:** February 28, 2013, 04:22:43 pm »

I'd suggest against Ellen, considering she isn't available...

Grujah · « **Reply #40 on:** February 28, 2013, 04:25:01 pm »

Than, Baltar is my political choice.

Maybe I'd go with Athena, I only played her once cuz I hate the drawback

Tables · « **Reply #41 on:** February 28, 2013, 04:27:12 pm »

Athena isn't even a character.

Grujah · « **Reply #42 on:** February 28, 2013, 04:28:35 pm »

I mean Boomer.

Quit nit-picking.

Grujah · « **Reply #43 on:** February 28, 2013, 04:33:28 pm »

Captain Apollo reports for duty, Sir.

I choose Apollo.

WinterSpartan · « **Reply #44 on:** February 28, 2013, 04:34:30 pm »

Lovely. I sent a CO for my pick for every possible combination of characters for you two other than Support/Pilot.

Let me look again - selection coming shortly.

WinterSpartan · « **Reply #45 on:** February 28, 2013, 04:40:36 pm »

The good people of Sagittaron deserve proper representation on this flight, and I intend to make sure they have it. Someone has to stand up for the common man.

#Tom Zarek is on board.

#Starting draw: 1 POL/1 LEA/1 TAC

Tables · « **Reply #46 on:** February 28, 2013, 04:45:01 pm »

Davio is next

Davio, please choose either a Military Leader or Cally.

Ozle · « **Reply #47 on:** February 28, 2013, 04:54:15 pm »

I hoppe you win this game before Season 3 plots kick in and we all fall asleep!

Grujah · « **Reply #48 on:** February 28, 2013, 04:58:59 pm »

I guess this is going to be one ofthose day. A ex-conman representing the Colonies. Shrugs.

(all italic is purely flavor)

WinterSpartan · « **Reply #49 on:** February 28, 2013, 05:05:08 pm »

Easy there, hotshot. Not everyone has had the privileged life you've got. You're also making the call too fast - while I would reluctantly accept the presidency of the Twelve Colonies, should the people request it, I don't think we've finished counting the survivors yet. The Secretary of Education and that cylon-frakking Gaius Baltar both have claims too.
