Do I need to start rooting for the toasters?
You mean you weren't before?
Spike: We got a history, him and me. Fred: What? Spike: It was a long time ago. He was a young Watcher, fresh out of the academy when we crossed paths. It was a, what-you-call battle of wills and blood was spilled. Vendettas were sworn. It was a whole-- Fred: My God you're so full of crap. Spike: Yeah. Okay.

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

I'm still waiting for the game where the toasters can take out team human before the sleeper phase.

They just had one of those on BGG. Finished in ten turns, amidst a hail of attack cards. They never even made it to the first jump. It involved an interesting quirk - the game ended with a raider activation, where the raiders first destroyed the last remining civvies - dropping Population to 0 - and then turned their guns on Galactica. They rolled hot, and Galactica (which was already heavily damaged) was destroyed.
The interesting part is that resource losses only occur at turn end - if, during a turn, a resource drops to 0, but then gets bumped back up before turn end, the game continues. However, losses due to Galactica's destruction take effect immediately. Therefore, even though Population hit rock bottom first, technically it counted as a damage loss.

Wow. That is interesting. To be fair, reading back, Baltar never did give an opinion one way or the other on support or not support.
Well, Team Humans, I still get my regular ACTION phase (that all was just my movement phase). I'm going to hope that Destiny is now in my favor. So I am going to re-initiate the debrig. It didn't cost Humans any cards the first time, it won't cost the second time. If Baltar spikes again, great, then he burned cards on a check that only effects me. Oh, and by the way, now I **REALLY** supsect Baltar is a toaster! The Doctor/PRESIDENT must be contained!
ACTION: Initiated debrig check (again)
