I spent most of the game hoarding at least two repair cards.
JERK!
At one point I was wondering if we could pull off a cylon victory without ever actually revealing as cylons.
Me too! I was like JUST REVEAL ALREADY for days. Ask billytea.

It felt like we also did a pretty good job of keeping Team Human starved for cards. That was one of my main reasons for not revealing. It kept meaning that you had to divide your attention and worry how badly a spiked check was going to burn you.
BSG
Yeah, once you revealed, it was nice to know you could only play one card into checks, even though you then had the power to move those damn Centurions.
And, yes, I complained many a time about the fact that we didn't have enough cards, which is why we couldn't brig you (also with two Cylons, it was hard to brig either one, and we had to resort to an arrest order).
There was a turn that, if I had managed to get that godsdamn Political Prowess (WHY DID THE CYLON GET IT NO FAIR), I was going to jump to the Airlock, Repair the Airlock, and then kill you. It would have been amazing. And, given your Reveal power, we might could have won. (Of course, I didn't get the PP, and then you frakking shot me IN THE FACE.)
BSG
Yeah, the face shooting was one of my favorite parts of the game. I think it's my best use of a OPG ability yet. It's just so brutal. The fact that I stayed alive and out of the brig after that was CRAZY!
BSG
I still wonder how differently the game would have gone if I had buried that Dogfight we got for the very first Crisis card. We would have had such a smooth initial jump cycle; we wouldn't have lost all those civvies and Vipers. Maybe we would have had the cards to deal with you two.
I never got to use my OPG. AND I HAD THREE OF THEM.
Actually, I've never used my OPG in any game, come to think of it. Dammit.
BSG
Ha! I was totally drawing yellow to mess with your head, PC, once I knew you wanted the PP. Because the whole game my draws were INSANE! Tory is a card drawing machine, but the draws themselves were crazy!
And no, Cally as Chief of Staff was a lucky guess. But yeah, I was totally trying to win without revealing. But I knew my doom was coming, because I knew Tigh was holding that execute card. I should have tried to take the Presidency instead of the failed brigging. I was distracted during that period.

I KNEW IT. I HATE YOU SO MUCH.
I knew Tigh was holding that execute card.
Ooh, such suspense and terror for you!
BSG
Couldn't I have XOed Kat with my bonus action and let her shoot twice? Holy crap, could that have worked??
...Holy crap, that could have worked! There hadn't been any other XOs played that turn, you could've played one. I steered you wrong! Um... sorry about that.
BSG
That would have been awesome. And hilarious.
BSG
Quick, roll the die twice now just for pretend!
