Kalshane, you should join the game!
Maybe next time. I don't have a lot of free time at the moment. Too much going on between work, the holidays and house stuff at right now, unfortunately.
BSG
Have I played Cally before? I can't believe we've played so many games that I'm not sure. Either way I sure haven't gotten to shoot anyone in the face... yet.
I'll be Callandra “Cally” Tyrol
BSG
Don't shoot me in the face! It'll be really weird, since I'm Tory Foster.
BSG
Per CO, -t chooses Anastasia "Dee" Dualla.
ND, you may choose either a military leader or the Chief (the only remaining support character).
BSG
A reminder to any players who haven't done so, to send meCOs for your starting card draw (or, for Apollo, your optional draw for turn one).
BSG
Woo, looks like I'm PRESIDENT Tory Foster! This is like the third game with President Tory!
BSG
I'm going to play Helena Cain. This should be interesting.
Damn, I should have chosen Starbuck and we'd have an all female crew!

Hey, the Airlock is right there.
We have a crew! A ragtag bunch of misfits who are, variously: amoral, headstrong, impulsive, fragile and bent on revenge. Before we start, there are a few things left to clear up.
1. I'm still missing one player's votes on rules options, but it doesn't matter, because there's already a clear majority in every category. I am pleased to announce the following results:
- We will play with an expanded destiny deck, as in the last couple of games.
- We will use Exodus loyalty rules (i.e. one extra loyalty card in the deck, there is always at least one card left in the deck).
- There are no other changes to the loyalty rules.
- We will use Pegasus Investigative Committees, as the gods intended. This means that ICs do not reveal Destiny.
I will be sending out starting loyalty cards shortly. Before we start, I still need the following decisions:
- I need Cally's and Cain's starting draws.
- I also need Cain's choice of starting location. Cain, you may begin the game either in Command or Pegasus CIC.
Apollo also has a choice of start location, and he has chosen Sector 6.
Ok crew, stand by to receive your loyalties. May the gods be with you. That might stop them pestering me all the time.
