Dude, you go next. Go ahead and use the cards then use your reveal. Not that hard. Sheesh. Grund to the sickbay. Wheeeeeee.

Well, I won't be contributing any cards. I'm not help. Can anyone step up and pass this skill check?

stessier · Post by **stessier** » Mon Apr 12, 2010 7:05 am

I can only contribute 1 card now that I'm in the Brig, right? Yeah - not going to be much help here.

docD · Post by **docD** » Mon Apr 12, 2010 12:58 pm

Normally I'd just throw in my piloting cards to pass this, but since Stessier is in the brig, I think I might be needed in a viper soon. I'm leaning towards letting this one fail and spending the fuel.

Question for you Turtle, if we launch more vipers can Stess use his special ability to jump into one the vipers?

docD · Post by **docD** » Mon Apr 12, 2010 1:00 pm

Nevermind my question, the faq says Apollo can't jump into a viper if he's in the brig.

stessier · Post by **stessier** » Mon Apr 12, 2010 1:09 pm

I agree with failing and spending fuel.

Apollo has no precheck cards.

I'll make the "no cards donated" part official once the Admiral agrees.

I think the "Current Player" gets to donate cards last (it it their Crisis we are resolving). So we are actually on Lars.

But we can jump around if you are definitely going to go the -1 fuel root.

Chaosraven · Post by **Chaosraven** » Mon Apr 12, 2010 2:59 pm

I will add no card to precheck or the crisis.

It is up to the rest of you what you wish to do.

For my part, I will sacrifice FUEL over MORALE when feasible, and in my opinion this is the case.

It will maintain our hands of cards, and hell, the Destiny might even pass this for us, being so low.

Regarding Grund in the sickbay, all that would do is nerf the cards available on his next turn if nobody ExecOrds him out of there before his turn comes up. (Now if it said BRIG...

)

You want another werewolf game with 20+ people that takes months to get through? I'll think about it.

People seem to have forgotten what "Remuscide" means. I need another shot at showing them.

I'm not sure if you are ready for another game like that. I seems you may have a problem remembering the rules for this one.

Not to derail, but I started looking back over the rules of the last game I did. Almost put a sign-up thread up, but I see there is one "WW" game going on, and another starting up after that one is completed. I don't want to bump anyone's game off attention wise, so I think I shall wait.

Chaosraven · Post by **Chaosraven** » Wed Apr 14, 2010 9:51 pm

So stick one in the queue

Grundbegriff · Post by **Grundbegriff** » Thu Apr 15, 2010 9:12 pm

Oops. Looks as if I'm the blocker. Everyone has declined.

I'll contribute three cards. Maybe we can whip this thing after all!

3 cards? For tactics and piloting? From madam politics/leadership? It appears I may owe scoop an official apology...

Spend the fuel. Somebody toss that toaster out the airlock.

Scoop20906 · Post by **Scoop20906** » Thu Apr 15, 2010 10:01 pm

If I'm given an action next turn, I can do two things, use my political connections to have Apollo freed from the Brig and crank up the ole Cylon Detector.

Chaosraven wrote:Spend the fuel. Somebody toss that toaster out the airlock.

I don't understand your reaction. You said you wanted to be sure we failed. That's why everyone withheld cards.

I was afraid the destiny deck could throw in two 5s, so I made sure we went the way you recommended.

Overkill? Maybe. But I did the same in one of the early rounds to ensure the outcome of a skill check, and you didn't complain then.

Chaosraven · Post by **Chaosraven** » Thu Apr 15, 2010 10:07 pm

Not even sure how to respond to that, but I can feel remus snorting milk thru his nose from here.

Chaosraven wrote:The way I see this, either we burn off some low cards which might have actions better served used than lost... Or a couple people throw large cards that would come in handy for a more devastating crisis. With 3 cylons derailing our efforts this check is something we can afford to lose. But by all means discuss it. Not like I'm gonna toss ya in the brig and let ya rot there for disagreeing with me...

No, it seems like you're going to turn on someone who agrees with you and helps to achieve your ends!

There's only one person who called your plan into question: this guy:

He called for someone to burn through big cards instead of small, so I did. What's the problem? Read his quote above the pic.

Not half as silly as grund is going to be if he actually misunderstood what I said. It's awful cold in space.

Lars · Post by **Lars** » Thu Apr 15, 2010 10:46 pm

Cavil will take 1 Tactics and 1 Treachery card

Lars · Post by **Lars** » Thu Apr 15, 2010 11:08 pm

Cavil will remain in his current location, and play the card "Human Weakness"

Turtle · Post by **Turtle** » Fri Apr 16, 2010 3:01 am

Cavil played Human Weakness, a treachery card. Since there is a human in the brig, the highest resource is reduced by 1. -1 Population.

Turn 39: Stessier/Apollo

Spoiler:

Stessier/Apollo must choose his cards for this turn (1 Tactics, 2 Piloting, 2 Leadership/Politics), then take an Action.

stessier · Post by **stessier** » Fri Apr 16, 2010 5:20 am

2 Leadership please

stessier · Post by **stessier** » Tue Apr 20, 2010 11:58 am

Sorry, we were waiting on me.

So the way I see it, we have a few choices:

Try to get me out of the Brig
Try to get Scoop out of the Brig
Try to put Roslin in the Brig

I'm open to suggestions. I was an idiot and requested Leadership instead of politics, so I can be very little help to the cause of getting us out.

We could also, I guess, try to repair the Airlock so we can execute someone. Seems to be harder, though, and just as effective to just throw Roslin in the Brig. The problem, as we learned this weekend, is that she gets to keep choosing between 2 Crisis cards which is going to get really annoying really fast.

Grund needs to be put into the brig as soon as possible. As long as he is out, he can screw up our skill checks. We need to also get Stessier and Scoop out of the brig soon also. In my opinion the order should be be
1. Throw Grund in the brig
2. Free Scoop and stessier
3. Get some vipers out to protect the civilians.
4. Other stuff.

Scoop says he can spring you, so if you have an exec orders you could use that to get you out of the brig.
