Wow, that was amazing!
Good game, y'all.
I may be love's bitch, but at least I'm man enough to admit it.

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

Congratulations dead Cylon, commiserations humans. A few details of upcoming attractions: I'd just reshuffled the Tactics deck. Scouting for Fuel was second from the top, and would have been picked up by Starbuck on her turn (unless that last raider had hit the Hangar Deck).
The next nine crisis cards all contained raider activations.
The next three crisis cards all lacked jump icons. The third one, which would have been Cally's next card, was the attack card Heavy Assault (which places two basestars and immediately activates them). The fifth crisis card was another attack card, Jammed Assault. The fleet would have been able to jump on that turn, before drawing it.
The next two crisis cards both threatened Morale. My assessment is that the crew would have got through both of them, especially with no Cylon to spike.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir
Well I guess it doesn't matter who is what title now. So we finally bite the bullet AFTER the toaster is boxed. How ironic, no?
Wow. I'm impressed we lasted this long. Fun times, y'all!
And BillyTea, once again, thank you for all you do in keeping us on track. You ran a great game.

Holy crap, what a game. I can't believe that after taking Morale down 3 points in 2 turns, I wasn't able to kill you within the next round...or the next several...and then I ended up BOXED...right before winning on Fuel. Never underestimate the power of a shitload of Raiders firing on Galactica. Thanks for the assist, Cally! (I forget, does Pegasus hang around for Crossroads? Or did taking the shield ship out accomplish nothing in the end?)
It sounds like the space attack would have destroyed the ship hardcore, even if they survived the skill checks. Brutal!
Thank you so much for everything you do, billytea! You're the best GM a guy could ask for.

It is pretty funny that I was directly going after Morale the whole game but you lost on Fuel. But I think there were a bunch of checks where you had to take the Fuel hit because Morale was at 1, so I was indirectly chipping away at Fuel too.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
BSG (in the end, Cally)
Yeah wowswers what a game. I had hope that whole time. Only saw the Morale option on my Crossroads card so wasn't thinking about how many hits Galactica would take.
BillyTea you ran an incredible game. Thanks again for being GM A-1 Extraordinaire.

We got lucky with a couple scout for fuels and inspirational speeches. Without those, we'd have been dead long time ago.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
