Apologies all for the delays. I'm now set up on my in-laws' computer, so hopefully things will be a bit smoother from here.
I have orders from Mr Gaeta:
he moves to the Airlock (discarding an Establish Network 0) and activates it, targetting Kat.
I have further interrupt COs from President Tory Foster,
who plays a Political Prowess 6
to make the check
succeed.
Kat, in turn, reveals a loyalty card:
YOU ARE A CYLON
CAN DAMAGE GALACTICA
I guess she bounced off the hull on the way out or something. Galactica stoically powers through the damage, and as Kat wakes up on the Resurrection Ship, she discards her entire hand of skill cards, and she passes her other loyalty card to the player of her choice. Kat, when you're ready, please post your choice. Meanwhile, her skill cards were:
Major Victory 1
Launch Scout 2
Evasive Manoeuvre 1
Maximum Firepower 3
Next up, the crisis of Adama. We should however wait first for Kat to pass off her other loyalty card.
BSG (Kat)
YOU JERKS. I
give my extra Loyalty Card to Gaeta.
BSG
You thought you avoided any negative consequences to Kat's airlocking, what with her being a toaster and all; but now there's no covering up what she did, and the fleet is reacting badly to the news that a Cylon was permitted to doom 30% of humanity. Adama's crisis card is:
Riots
Admiral's Choice
Admiral Adama, when you're ready, please post your choice.
BSG (President)
Awesome! One down. Now to figure out who the other one is. So glad that card went to good use!
BSG (RoboKat)
I like this Crisis! It's a win-win!
I am still mad at you guys.
BSG(PapaDon't)
Well, that's a perfect backflip followed by a faceplant.
Given that Fuel is lowest and most critical, and Population is needed for the end of New Caprica, I choose
Option 1.
BSG (Gaeta, airlocker of toasters!)
Ouch!

BT, question. I always forget. Given the number of players we have, and the rules package we have gone with, what is the toaster count possible for the game? Is it 2? Or possible 2 depending on how the cards were shuffled, and some not dealt? or some crazy stuff like that? Just wondering how suspicious to be of folks.
BSG
1 minimum, 2 maximum. Because we're playing with Exodus rules, it's possible the second Cylon card is still in the deck.

This is correct. At game start there's a 2/11 chance of a Cylon card being undealt, but this will change if extra ones get dealt, say if you execute Apollo on the first turn. And you might perceive a different likelihood depending on the number of pre-Sleeper Cylons you think there were.
