Gaming 1: You are likely to be eaten by a grue

All are welcome to chime in, talk about their favorite games or learn about gaming of any sort.

If this BSG game turns out to be successful (and not overly annoying to other thread members), anybody want to take a crack at playing Republic of Rome online? I'll mod (which means I won't be able to play directly). Sure, nobody else has a set, but I don't think that would be too much of a problem.
I'd need to see how my study load is going, but I'd certainly be interested.

You can also send me conditional orders on what you'll play into the Skill Check. (Again, except Apollo, who's out of cards.)
Cool. There's clearly no rush, but I'll look at putting basic info together. And so far, the BSG game seems successful.

I'd like to remind folks what the good Aussie said:
Boomer only Purple, Red and Blue.
So it wasn't me who threw a wrench in the system last check, as I couldn't help, and played nothing. Which explains why I can only say "I can't help in the endeavor".
billytea, no interrupts from Boomer.
I can see the baseship a little from around the side of Galactica! :: pushes throttle all the way, and yet is still stuck in sector 6 ::
BSG
Thank you Boomer, that leaves only Admiral Adama for both interrupts and COs for the check itself.
BSG
Looks like Baltar's delusional intuition was on line already, in terms of moving the civilian fleet just ahead of a raider move.
I don't interrupt, and have sent conditional orders for card play. I will say that since all the checks seem to be hitting green, I can only contribute a little.
