Everyone passes on interrupts.
Die roll: 5. Two raiders destroyed!
Look at that, we have exactly two raiders. They go boom!
Time to celebrate with another refreshing beverage. Will the CAG allow you to raid his personal stash? Cally's crisis card is:
Water Shortage (B)
President's Choice
CAGsident Apollo, when you're ready, please post your choice.

Ouch that's a painful discard but food is getting pretty low. I think maybe we better lose the cards.
I would like to note that omnis correctly picked Chief Tyrol as a toaster in backchannel way back in turn 2.2.
Now, if only I could get the spidey-senses so accurate when I'm actually PLAYING.
I have a non BSG related question. What are good 2 player board or card games that aren't too expensive?
I've looked online and I've seen some mentioned but I'd rather get some Buffista approved games that Will and I can play together and have some fun.
The first game that comes to mind is gin which you just play with an ordinary deck of cards. You can probably get a cheap cribbage set too. ooh and Set. Set is awesome.
askye, I will take a look at my stash and see if I have any I can send you. I know I was looking for two-person games for a while, I don't remember if I bought any...

If we go for the discards, I would have to discard randomly (WEAKNESS!) and [looks at hand] that would suck right now, so we're all going to have to tighten our belts.
Option 1
What are good 2 player board or card games that aren't too expensive
I will second "Set" rec, that's a fun game for all ages. I also like Yikerz

Deck of cards is an infitie number of games. Two decks you can then play dualing solataire!
