Hurrah! I've been getting antsy because we're nearing New Caprica and I still had no idea who any of the Cylons were, so it was nice of Baltar to out himself like that. If we have another one, I would still say Cally and Roslin are the ones I'm least sure about, but I have nothing to go on.
Oh, Baltar. You picked the wrong turn to fuck with me. (It would have been kind of hilarious if I'd been President with that Crisis. Yeah, no discussion needed!)
BSG
Baltar reveals a loyalty card:
YOU ARE A CYLON
Can send another player to the Brig
He discards his entire hand, which contained:
Consolidate Power 1
Consolidate Power 1
Investigative Committee 3
Declare Emergency 3
Trust Instincts 0
Launch Scout 2
Repair 1
Repair 2
Repair 2
Build Nuke 6
He then moves to the Resurrection Ship, where he does not receive a super crisis. Dr Baltron must now pass hiw two unseen loyalty cards to another player. Dr Baltar, to whom would you like to bequeath your remaining loyalty?
BSG
While Baltar decides that, the RSV in Sector 6 is about to get shot at:
Attack 1: 8. Viper destroyed!
The other raider moves to Sector 5. More raiders move from Sector 2 to Sector 3. Finally, the jump track advances. I'll wait until Baltron decides where to direct his loyalty cards before we start Dee's turn.
BSG (Dee-ranged)
OH GOD BALTAR WHAT IS THAT HAND I HATE YOU SO MUCH. BURN. BURN IN CYLON HELL.
Attack 1: 8. Viper destroyed!
Geez, we are so frakked.
BSG (Roslin)
Frak, this does not look good.
BSG (Dee-jected)
I have no idea how we're going to survive the Battle of New Caprica with only 3 Vipers. We're going to have to prep and evacuate FAST.
Clearly I am not good at lying. And my timing wasn't the greatest.
BSG (The Good Doctor... Of course I'm good, I'm perfect, I'm a frakin Cylon!!)
I give my remaining loyalty cards to Dee, as a trophy.
Do I get to send someone to the Brig like my card says? Or is that negated due to beheading? I think it's only if I am in the brig, which I was not.
BSG (Dee-grassi)
Clearly I am not good at lying.
The incident with the civvies you were going on about? Took place pre-Sleeper. When you had cleared Starbuck, who had cleared Tigh, who had cleared me. I was human then and half the crew knew it. You weren't going to make headway with that.
I give my remaining loyalty cards to Dee, as a trophy.
Saw that one coming.
Do I get to send someone to the Brig like my card says? Or is that negated due to beheading? I think it's only if I am in the brig, which I was not.
When you are executed, you don't get your Reveal power, you don't get to keep your cards, you don't get a Super Crisis. You get nothing! You lose! GOOD DAY SIR!
I SAID GOOD DAY!
BSG
Do I get to send someone to the Brig like my card says? Or is that negated due to beheading? I think it's only if I am in the brig, which I was not.
You do not. The card effect only takes place if you use an action to reveal.
Dee's new loyalty cards are now being sent, along with her card draw. Admiral Dualla, when you're ready, please post your move and action.
BSG
There is no day in deep space, so I shall say good night to y'all. GOOD NIGHT. Gods know you will all be sleeping with the fishes in no time.
So? Who is my fellow Cylon? I wonder if I lied or told the truth about Starbuck.
