...spin-offs are still better for all of the previously cited reasons.
But not strictly better, because the spinoff can have a different cost than the expansion.

Admiral's trying to cheat...I see how it is, cylon!  Cheating to help the humans is even worse, as you're a cheating cylon working against your own win-con.  What do you mean, it's a quote?

Anyways, that worked so well, let's try it again.
##Play Inspirational Speech

Things are always better than they seem folks.  Cylons aren't evil machines bent on your destruction.  I mean, they're machines trying to kill you, but they aren't really evil...they're just amoral.  (It's a joke, and jokes help morale right?)

Two inspirational speeches? Isn't our morale high enough currently?
So that it isn't wasted I contribute another SP which I kept in hand in wise forethought.

This is Baltar we're talking about. He's not got any actual political competence, so he's going to make lots of speeches to hide the fact.

Erm, accidentally put in +3 but it's still a fail.

"We should test the people in the most sensitive positions first." - William Adama

"CRISIS: Cylon Screenings

Current Player Chooses
Skill check: POL/LEA = 9
PASS: No Effect
FAIL: -1 Morale and the current player looks at a random Loyalty Card belonging to the President or Admiral.

OR

Each player discards 2 Skill Cards

POST CRISIS: Activate Raiders, NO JUMP PREP

Zarek, what would you like to do?

Failure doesn't seem so bad on this one. Especially with how much morale we have.

Well, Zarek is pretty humany, and Admiral, well, we both had our doubts. I wouldn't oppose checking him.

It might cost less to pass the skill than for all to discard two (maybe not, I am not sure how many people ahve POL/LEA). I discard at random but my hand is unexciting anyway.

Just as a note: you'd be checking me not Zarek...he's not managed to take the presidency from me quite yet.

Point of Information: The current player is Zarek, if the check fails, he can check either Baltar or Adama.

What I meant is that Zarek is pretty humany so I can trust what he says, mostly. Checking you is less better, as you are more humany than Adama, and even if you are Cylon he has 50% of failure (unless you are doublecylon, and that is quite an edge case ATM).

Oh, yeah...that makes sense.  I was just thinking you had typoed the name (although I joked about him taking the presidency), but that makes much more sense.

Wow, quite the opportunity. I do think that - after that speech (thank you Baltar) - I'd like to take the check and deliberately fail it to check the Admiral's loyalty. Discarding wouldn't be the end of the world - I have plenty of things I can toss and Baltar has no cards - but I think checking loyalty may be worth it.

I'll make my final decision tomorrow morning, to give anyone else who wants to weigh in time to do so. But right now I'm leaning towards taking the check and urging that none of us contribute any cards.

My stance: Discard probably better than trying to pass the check.
Failing the check - I am FOR it.
