Buffy: So how'd she get away with the bad mojo stuff? Anya: Giles sold it to her. Giles: Well, I didn't know it was her. I mean, how could I? If it's any consolation, I may have overcharged her.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

'Cause you might get havoc AND heavy raider activation, who knows?

Note that crises drawn from Caprica do not activate Cylon ships; the activation icon gets ignored. (Any jump icon, on the other hand, is resolved.)

Do the crises drawn from Caprica place Cylon ships on the board?

Any effects from the Crisis itself still take place as normal. Thus, for instance, if you draw and play an attack card, all steps occur, including the Step 1 activation and the Step 2 ship placement. It's only the activation icon at the bottom of a (non-attack) crisis card that gets ignored.

Then I'm leaning towards pushing the centurion through another activation. Let's see if they can keep their luck up with destroying these things.

Of course I could also move and draw a super crisis so that it would be ready for my next turn. I'm just not certain how close to the endgame we are.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

You can't ever move to the Resurrection Ship. It's like the Brig or Sickbay. You have to stay there after resurrecting to pick up more SCCs.

Apollo is correct. In Pegasus, the Resurrection Ship is counted as a hazardous location and may not be moved to voluntarily. Basically, your options are Caprica, Cylon Fleet and Human Fleet.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

BSG

Because you're always trying to stick it to the man!
