You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

BSG (Tigh)

When it says "move to any location" does that include Colonial 1 or would I have to discard?

I am open to suggestions, but right now thinking the best thing for me right now is to work the quorum. But if I have to discard to board Colonial 1 (a fairly costly discard btw) that leaves me with one card I must use or discard at the end of my turn. I'm not sure if maybe there might be something better for me to do in that case.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

BSG (Dee)

You would have to discard to move to Colonial One, I think. I was thinking Research Lab or Scouting.

Per the rulebook, you are limited to moving to any location on Galactica. (This is a bit confusing as the board itself doesn't show the qualifier. It has been confirmed by the game's creator.)

I have orders from Roslin and Cally:

Brig: 7 YP

Destiny: 2 cards
Starbuck: 0 cards
Tigh: 1 card
Six: 1 card
Baltar: 0 cards
Dee: 3 cards
Roslin: 1 card
Cally: 0 cards

Cards played:

Preventative Policy 5
Launch Scout 2
Launch Scout 2
Launch Scout 2
Launch Scout 2
Strategic Planning 4
Executive Order 2
Declare Emergency 4

Tally: 17 - 6 = 11. Pass! But! Cally can use her Quick Fix to remove one card. If she were to remove the PP-5, then the check would fail by 1. ...I have COs from her, and she removes the DE-4. Check passes by 8!

President Tigh, you may move to any location on Galactica. When you're ready, please post your choice. Once you've moved, you will have one action remaining from the XO (which you may use to activate your new location, if you wish). When you're ready, please post your orders.

Thanks guys! I will move to Command and tender my Resignation

I figure this is a good place to be in case of cylon attack and Roslin is way better at being president.

In addition to handing back the presidency This card also allows me to discard the last remaining quorum card and draw another .

Wait, wait, what is this. Why would she do this? Just for the lulz? Should we be suspicious? Can she do this only once per turn?

Thanks guys! I will move to Command and tender my Resignation

Whoa, who knew you could do that? Besides you, I mean.

This card also allows me to discard the last remaining quorum card and draw another .

Well, but then Roslin gets the Quorum cards, right?

Anyway, nice to have you out of the Brig, former Admiral!

Yes, Roslin gets back the presidency and one new quorum card.

It's nice to be back with my liquor cabinet crew.
