Which category does Gaeta fall into?

Eh, I'll take him either way.

I choose Caprica Six and draw 1G/1B.

Looks like it's going to be a wild ride, kiddoes.

P-C playing Boomer? Should we just throw her out the airlock now?

Also, Felix will take 1P/1B/1Y.

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

BSG

Please welcome the crew of Buffistica 14! And a proud group they are too. The fleet's title holders are:

Admiral: Felix Gaeta
President: Ellen Tigh
CAG: Sharon "Boomer" Valerii

For those who are interested, they rank fifth, fifth and fourth in their respective orders of succession. What could possibly go wrong?

Well, we're about to find out, as the game is about to begin! Starting cards and loyalties are going out now. The first player is Samuel T. Anders. Because of his weakness, he does not draw any skill cards on his first turn. Mr Anders, when you're ready, please post your move and action.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Oh, my , this will be fun. What a bunch of troublemakers.

CAG: Sharon "Boomer" Valerii

Holy shit, awesome!! I've never played CAG before; this'll be fun.

Holy crap, if I'm in space, I can activate an unmanned Viper AND take an action! This is awesome!

For those who are interested, they rank fifth, fifth and fourth in their respective orders of succession. What could possibly go wrong?

DON'T SAY THAT.

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

BSG (Anders)

I don't like having 0 cards. I will move to the Research Lab and Draw 1 Purple.
