Oh, hey, it looks like I would become President, so at least I'd be confident that the Presidency and Admiralty were both in human hands, although it would make me less useful as a pilot.
Note: If Zarek turns out to have been human, then the order of succession is dealt with
after
he chooses a new character. If he chooses someone higher than you on the list (basically, any other politician), then he would retain the Presidency.
BSG
Ah, okay. Maybe we should turn him into Roslin so he can have Religious Visions to help us through these dark times.
BSG
This is a really tough decision, Helo. I don't envy you.
BSG
But we would be sure, at that point, that whoever Zarek became was human. Or would we? And if he isn't, we'd definitely know that.
I don't have any Repair right now, so it'd be a little while before I could jump on fixing damage, fwtw.

I'm hoping I have some time to think before Gaeta posts his discards. I'm going to take a shower.

I don't remember what rules we chose for that.

Yep.

Well, that's not good.

Per the Exodus loyalty rules, there is one undealt loyalty card. Should a player be executed and choose a new character, I add another "You Are Not A Cylon" card to the remaining deck, shuffle it, and deal the new character a new loyalty card. It is possible for the new character to receive a Cylon loyalty card in this way. (It's happened to me in each of the two Exodus games I've played. In both cases after the fleet had reached Distance 8.)
BSG
I don't remember what rules we chose for that.
The vote was 2-1 in favour of the Exodus loyalty rules, with 3 abstentions.
