On a vaguely connected note, the way we're doing ICs right now means Trust Instincts is mostly useless to Human players.

Not at all, it makes a great discard.

In general terms, Trust Instincts and Red Tape tend (IMO) to be more useful for the Cylons. TI does suffer a bit more with Pegasus, because there's a sixth colour and it's almost always negative, so Destiny becomes that much more hostile. Iron Will and Protect the Fleet, on the other hand, are more pro-human. (I've seen Cylons use Iron Will quite effectively, but most commonly it basically acts like Jury Rigged without the Reckless risk.)

Establish Networks is somewhat more evenly balanced. You'd think that since Blue is much more often negative than positive, that it'd favour the Cylons, but I think there are two factors that swing it the other way. First, a player knows whether it'll help or hurt when they play it; second, a revealed Cylon can only play one card. If it's the EN-0, they can't play any other Blue to be doubled by it. For those reasons I think it actually winds up helping the humans a bit more than it hurts.

BSG(Admiral-teetotal)

Jeez. Can anyone think of a good reason to pick Option 2? Because I can't. (Well, I planned to use this card at some point, but that's not a GOOD reason.)

BSG (Boomer)

Nope, I left it there because Option 1 was the clear choice, and I figure that if you have to draw some Treachery, Six can make it positive.

BSG(Felix curmudgus)

Well, might as well get it over with-

I Choose Option 1 and discard G&I-2

Supply ships: pressured! The Admiral considers getting hold of a stovepipe hat and a twirly moustache.

Now we get to the fun part. The raider activation adds a raider to... Sector 3. It also advances the Pursuit track to the last step, and the Cylon fleet jumps in! Finally, the jump track also advances. That concludes Six' turn. Anders has opted to draw 1R for his optional draw. Mr Anders, when you're ready, please post your move and action.

Oh fraaaaaaak, look at all those unprotected civvies. One Raider activation and we're screwed.

Anders, I think your best move is to move to Sector 4 and then CAG D home and escort a civvie home yourself. At least that gets some civvies off the board.

I hope I can get out of here soon.

BSG (Anders)

Yeah, I can't think of a better option at this point.

I move to Sector 4 to escort Civvie A home and for my CAG action

This is CAG to MkVII in Sector 6, let's get those civilians to safety!

CAG civvie D home.

BSG

Cool. One administrative note, technically the CAG action happens first, then you perform your (bonus) action. It doesn't matter here, but there could be situations where it does.

Still, it's good of you to get the nuggest into the action. HOW else are they going to LEARN? But space is a harsh mistress. The vipers have suffered a
