Well, in the interest of keeping things moving, since the game is moving kinda slow, since we have 3 in vote of tightening belts, I go with OPTION 1.

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

Baltar has drawn Purple for his Delusional Intuition.

President Baltar has chosen option 1; Food returns to its starting value of 7. That concludes Baltar's turn, and he is one card over his hand limit. He discards Preventative Policy 4.

Chief's cards are going out. Chief Tyrol, when you're ready, please post your move and action.

Hmmmmm.

Mr President, since you're on Pegasus anyway(for some reason) can we get you to spend some influence and get the Engines going?

Given the opportunity, I mean.

Yeah sorry. Had to work.

BSG President

I don't have any quorum cards that will fire up the engines. And the gods didn't bless me with a repair card. I could lay hands on the engines. May lay some of my "advisors" in the engine room. But I doubt that will get them to work.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

...Are you hitting the chamalla, Prez? All we're asking is for you to activate the Engine Room with 2 of your million cards.

Wha? Ohhh. It's the airlock that's busted. See, I was distracted. You have no idea how hard it is to satisfy all these followers.

Sure, I can make 2 of my cards = a jump icon. Seems pretty simple.

Anyone play Alien Frontiers? A buddy got me hooked. Kickstarter thing to make the board game. Another kickstarter to make the iPad app. It's pretty cool game. Def worth the $5 for iPad. Not so sure it's worth $150 to import the board version.
