I don't want to die! Sheesh, that Admiral sure is tetchy. Not my fault Galactica is kicking Cylon ass! Whoo! What was I saying, oh, right, I don't want to die!
The SR doesn't help me. I can help moderately. And I don't think we should tank this one! I mean, strategically. Um.
No IC's, huh? That would be helpful, although given the color if it's an option between that and playing into the check, I'd rather be saved than know I'm being saved, know what I mean? I mean, I'd rather know I was being saved and be saved, than not be saved, but...maybe I should quit talking now.
Let's at least take the random out of this. I
play my Guts and Initiative 1
to remove Destiny from the question. It may knock off some help, but since it's a two color check, it may knock off some inevitable betrayal, too.
BSG
SR doesn't help me and I can only help a little.
BSG
Hey, did Anders get a purple or a red for his fifth card this draw?
BSG
Oh, right, I got a red; I'd left co's about it.
BSG
Cain helps a little, Anders helps moderately, Cally's playing two cards, Boomer can't help. I'm still not sure whether I should play one card or two. If I play two, I will definitely not be able to help if we get a check on Cain's turn, but depending on the color, I may not have been able to anyway.
BSG
If I were you I'd play two. It's better to overkill than to use a bunch of cards for nothing.
BSG
And also did I mention the part where I don't want to die?
BSG
Well, if we fail the check, you can use your OPG to save yourself. But I'd rather save that for later (I have an idea whereby you can XO me to play a Quorum card to raise a stat, since those things take a 6 or higher to work).
