Zarek - Adama - I can't contribute much. Should we try and to this or just tank it?

WinterSpartan · « **Reply #1428 on:** August 28, 2013, 09:03:54 pm »

Oh, there's not a snowball's chance in Hades that we'll pass this. I have my tank CO already in.

Guys, I'm running out of banners!

Tables · « **Reply #1435 on:** August 29, 2013, 05:57:46 pm »

It's more fun when you end up with all three titles after starting with none.

I've only seen it happen I think twice. Both times the lucky person was Anders. I've been in games involving Anders about three times. Go figure.

theorel · « **Reply #1436 on:** August 29, 2013, 09:44:29 pm »

Alright, so Jorbles...
I think I want to take the presidency back.

With 3 humans in the brig, I might as well stay unrevealed. Then I get to pull a crisis also. The more skill checks we can force on them, the harder it will be on them only adding 1 skill card each. So, I think this is the best way for us to exploit them all being in prison.

You can win the game in 2 heavy raider activations, as long as the humans can't destroy the centurion. I think we might be able to pull that off easier than trying to kill their morale/fuel. And if they have to spend all their time trying to deal with the centurion, those tracks are going to be hard on them.

Also, a food/water shortage while I'm president would be awesome.

Any thoughts?

Jorbles · « **Reply #1437 on:** August 30, 2013, 10:37:13 am »

I'm not sure we can make you President. Let's assume we both have some good cards to play into it. Zarek is going to make it two points harder and they're all going to play against it. Is it a realistic goal? Your hand has a lot more to say about this than mine. It's easier than trying to brig Adama, and it would draw types of cards we hadn't before (but these are probably going to be cards that are less useful in checks for them).

The other option is really to go to Communications. Then if raiders activate they'll probably lose two civvies and they're unlikely to get a pilot out there in time.

Jorbles · « **Reply #1438 on:** August 30, 2013, 10:56:58 am »

Also I'm down with the heavy raider plan. Even if they manage to kill that Centurion they'll have to ignore some other stuff to deal with it, and we've still got other options to win if it doesn't work out.

theorel · « **Reply #1439 on:** August 30, 2013, 03:08:40 pm »

Alright, I'll take that as a sufficient affirmative. I'm pretty confident I can win the election

Move to Administration.
Nominate myself for President.

Play Political Prowess, succeed the check.

I would like to thank all of you for helping me to achieve this victory. I assure you, I have only the best of intentions for the remains of humanity, unlike that boor Adama.

Tables · « **Reply #1440 on:** August 30, 2013, 03:10:37 pm »

Screw this card luck. Whatever humanity, you're on your own from here. Well, I'll make it up for you with a nice crisis I guess.

CRISIS: Unfair Bias

Skill check: POL/LEA/TAC = 12
PASS: No Effect
FAIL: Damage Galactica and the current player discards his hand of Skill Cards.

POST CRISIS: Activate Raiders, +1 Jump Prep

##I'll take a PIL card.

Jorbles · « **Reply #1442 on:** August 30, 2013, 04:14:49 pm »

Well if I'd known about your amazing Political Prowess I wouldn't have doubted you.

Jorbles · « **Reply #1443 on:** August 30, 2013, 05:59:24 pm »

That crisis is unfortunate. Maybe we'll damage the Armoury though?

theorel · « **Reply #1444 on:** August 30, 2013, 09:10:38 pm »

yep, this crisis is definitely Unfairly Biased against me...

WinterSpartan · « **Reply #1445 on:** August 30, 2013, 09:13:39 pm »

Free action: Curse our terrible luck.

##Pass on everything, Tank

At least he'll lose the rest of his cards...

theorel · « **Reply #1446 on:** August 30, 2013, 09:17:26 pm »

@Jorbles: should I try to pass the crisis...or is it worth my having no cards to damage Galactica?

(I mean I'd probably only have 1 or 2 left even if we tried to pass the check, just trying to think through options...)

theorel · « **Reply #1447 on:** August 30, 2013, 09:22:16 pm »

Note: If it's worth trying to pass, I should probably play an interrupt...

Grujah · « **Reply #1448 on:** August 31, 2013, 03:28:56 am »

##Pass on everything, Tank

Jorbles · « **Reply #1449 on:** August 31, 2013, 03:57:41 am »

Jeez, both options suck. I can't decide which is worse though, so do whichever you think is best.
