I can take or leave Cylon Fleet at this point. I don't mind if we add it.

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

The votes on the Cylon Fleet module are tallied!
For:
Some!
Eh:
Others!
Against:
None!
This game will therefore include both Conflicted Loyalties and the Cylon Fleet module!
I'm gettin gthe files ready to send out. Pay special attention to the email about the new elements. Come the weekend, we'll be ready for character selection.

Ok! All the files are ready, and we are good to go with character selection. A couple of notes:
I recommend with the Cylon Fleet, that you have at least two people with Piloting skills. If you don't that's still workable, but it'll probably go easier with piloting backup.
We have six players, which means we can have a Cylon leader (limit of one). There are three options: Cavil, Leoben and Caprica Six. A Cylon leader gets a secret agenda instead of loyalty cards. It tells them which team they support, and another condition they need to fulfil as well in order to win. If you'd like to play a Cylon leader, you can choose on as your character choice, or in your COs. If no one else has picked one yet, then you'll get one.
If no one chooses a Cylon leader, then we will play a six-player game using the No Sympathiser rules (lower starting resources, revealed Cylons draw three cards instead of two).
Here is our player order:
Laga

askye
chrismg
Polter-Cow
Liese S.
Laga is up first. Everyone else, you can send me COs for your character choice. Everyone except Laga also gets a starting draw of three skill cards, from their regular draw. You can also send me COs for your card draw. Happy hunting!

My turn? I'll be Ellen Tigh and I'll take 2Y and 1G to start.
I think this is the first game I've played where P-C isn't either right before or right after me. Disorienting.

Yay!
I will make note here that I am in my summer fundraising trip, so there will definitely be days when I am slow to respond, at least through the next three weeks or so. I should always be able to check in daily or more, but for conversations, I might lag a little as we get started here. I will do my best to be prompt. If that's a problem for anyone, I can step out now and catch the next game.

chrismg is next. You can take a military leader, a Cylo leader or a support character (aside from Cally).

Which category does Gaeta fall into?
Eh, I'll take him either way.
