You guys should play! But yeah, I can totally do that. It would probably help the players too, at least starting out.
Right. Sir. Honey.

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

Liese is up next, and chooses Felix "I'll take 'Deeply inappropriate first names for 200', Alex" Gaeta. Lage is next. Laga, we now have one of each main category, so you may choose any character not already taken.

Somebody else be President! Ellen Tigh makes a shitty President, I realized, because her special ability relies on her moving to spaces where other people are. She's like the anti-Zarek.

You can all just call me Feel...no, you can all just call me Lix...no, you can, you can. You know, just pretend I don't have a first name.

I was going to call you Leapin' Louie, louche leg-lacking lounge lizard of Libron's dive bars, pleasure palaces and speakeasies. I can't speak for anyone else though.

While I think of it too, everyone except Boomer also starts the game with three cards from their regular draw. You can either post or email me your choice of draw. (The card draw takes place after everyone receives their loyalty cards, so if your loyalty matters to your draw, you can send me COs for either case.)

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
BSG
what color is tactics? (I'm analysing the card breakdown so far & I remember Ellen doesn't draw Treachery but I forget what it's supposed to be)
Does Tory outrank Ellen?
I like to play someone I haven't tried before but I've been all the high-ranking politicians. DO you feel like being president, ND?

Ellen does draw Treachery; Tory doesn't (she draws Tactics). Tory does outrank Ellen in the Presidential succession. (Seriously, how does anyone not outrank Ellen?)
