Glad to see the ~~filthy human~~ criminal was unsuccessful in his escape.

WinterSpartan · « **Reply #1328 on:** July 29, 2013, 05:16:23 pm »

Hmm, that's unfortunate. I guess I had assumed our admiral would be able to help with that check (and you know what they say about assumptions...)

I can't use my office with Baltar sitting on my desk. Here are the options as I see them:

1) XO Apollo or Boomer to try that again, and then do something after their escape (like brig Baltar, perhaps). We probably don't have the card strength for this, since Cymod continues to mock me with card draws.

2) XO Adama to... I dunno. Go do something productive (launch some vipers?). How good this is depends on what he wants to do.

3) Go try to brig Baltar myself. Upside: Check is only difficulty 4, if the Arbitrator makes it so, and all of Adama's cards will be positive. Downside: We still might fail and either way I'm out of my office.

What do my fellow humans think? I WOULD kind of like to deal with Baltar before he gets to reveal, but there's a lot we need to do right now. I think I'm leaning towards brigging the toaster.

I have no idea what you're talking about.

What could possibly make you think I'm a cymod?

Wow Apollo, you weren't even trying to get out of the brig.

Twistedarcher · « **Reply #1331 on:** July 31, 2013, 12:50:26 pm »

I can't contribute really to a brig escape, so I suggest we try another route.

Depending on if Adama has something useful to do, maybe you could try that. Brigging Baltron would be great, but unless we think we can get it done, it's probably not worth a try.

WinterSpartan · « **Reply #1332 on:** July 31, 2013, 05:19:06 pm »

I could be of some assistance with the brigging, but it's really going to come down to what Adama thinks. I don't know what his 3 cards are, but they SHOULD all be helpful.

Davio · « **Reply #1333 on:** August 01, 2013, 02:57:10 am »

Well, they're not helpful in releasing someone from the brig.
In fact, they're not helpful at all.

WinterSpartan · « **Reply #1334 on:** August 01, 2013, 05:16:12 pm »

So what you're saying is we don't have the card strength to do a darn thing, and I can't use my office because this guy's in here. Lovely.

*Sigh* I guess I'll try to deal with our card problems a little and punt the turn. Maybe we can salvage this mess yet.

##Play Assign Mission Specialist on Apollo. (I can still do this even with the toaster in my office; I just don't get to draw a replacement. It also gives me two Politics.)

After my crisis and before your turn, Adama, we need to talk.

Jorbles · « **Reply #1335 on:** August 01, 2013, 05:25:44 pm »

Wuzzat do?

Tables · « **Reply #1336 on:** August 01, 2013, 05:53:12 pm »

"ASSIGN MISSION SPECIALIST

Action: Draw 2 politics cards and give this card to any other player. Keep this card in play. The next time the Fleet jumps, this player chooses the destination instead of the Admiral. He draws 3 Destination Card (instead of 2) and chooses 1. Then discard this card."

CRISIS: Cylon Genocide

Current Player Chooses:
Skill check: POL/LEA/TAC/ENG = 21
PASS: Destroy all Cylon ships currently on the main game board.
FAIL: -1 Morale, then: Launch Nukes, Launch Raiders, Activate Heavies

OR

Roll a die. If 4 or lower, the current player is sent to the Brig.

POST CRISIS: Activate Raiders, +1 Jump Prep

WinterSpartan · « **Reply #1338 on:** August 01, 2013, 06:03:00 pm »

Right. We're taking the or, then.

Any strat plans?

Twistedarcher · « **Reply #1339 on:** August 01, 2013, 10:04:23 pm »

I do have my special ability still, but we'll probably want to save it for later I'm thinking.

So, three humans in the brig...not great :/

##Pass, in case that was in question.

Everyone else passes by CO.

Rolled 1d8 : 3, total 3

*Passes by CO or has no Strat Plans.

Roll fails, Zarek moves to the brig.

Post crisis: Raiders activate - as there are none on the main board, Basestars launch 2 raiders each. Jump prep.

Hmm, at this point I'm kinda hoping to be one of the final five..... $:-\$

WinterSpartan · « **Reply #1347 on:** August 04, 2013, 11:07:45 pm »

Beautiful. Just beautiful.

Well, the only possible way to deal with Baltar before he gets to reveal is an XO to one of us in the brig to escape/hit Admiral's Quarters. Boomer's probably best just because her turn comes soonest, but Apollo would make sense too since he's a better pilot. This will mostly depend on how strong your hand is, since we're all limited to one card per check (though I have a couple of semi-useful ones).

Alternatively, I could use an XO to do Presidential things. I have a couple of good options - not better than escaping/brigging Baltar, but if that's not a possibility I think it's our best choice. If you do that, I'd recommend moving to the President's Office... Can't say more than that.

Davio · « **Reply #1348 on:** August 05, 2013, 02:57:42 am »

##Move to President's Office
Play LEA-1 (Executive Order) on Sharon "Boomer" "this time not a Cylon apparently" Valerii.

Boomer hasn't done much all game, so I think it's fair she got a chance to get out. I can't pass the Escape check on my own, so chuck in what you can.

Tables · « **Reply #1349 on:** August 05, 2013, 03:30:22 am »

You guys know the drill by now. Interrupts?

Brig escape: 75-POL/TAC
Pass: Boomer moves out of the Brig to any location.
Fail: No effect.

Interrupts:

Chief: Cylon
