Right then. I have an assignment due on Friday, and after that I'll have some time to get the next game underway. This will be game 21, so every crisis will be served with copious amounts of alcohol. (The Cylon attack cards will come with those fruity drinks with little umbrellas in them.)
I propose to run this game under the same rules set as the last one, i.e. with the standard materials from the base game and all three expansions, as well as Conflicted Loyalties and the option of a Cylon leader. If players would like any other rules option, it can be done. A reminder of the other available modules:
- New Caprica (from Pegasus)
- Cylon Fleet (from Exodus)
- Ionian Nebula (from Exodus)
- The Demetrius (from Daybreak)
Let's start the sign-up now. Who's in for game 21? Reply in-thread or send me an email.
Maybe throw in something else this time, like the Ionian Nebula? That was pretty terrible, if I recall. I don't know what Demetrius does.
I'm in either way.
I think I'm going to sit this one out. My schedule looks to be getting pretty busy over the next few months.
I'm in. Would also be up for trying something new but not the Ionian Nebula.

The Ionian Nebula is pretty brutal, it's true. Cylon Fleet has had less of an impact on victory stats on bgg.
I'm game, unless space is needed for new players (c'mon lurkers! Join the fun!!!)
I vote for GM choice of mods.
I don't think I have the brainspace right now, alas. I will enjoy my adult beverages in the peanut gallery for this game.
I thought the Cylon Fleet was interesting. I wouldn't mind trying it again.
So, I haven't played a Civilization game since Civ 2, but I downloaded Civilization: Revolution when it was free on Xbox Live last month. Finally fired it up last weekend...
It's amazing how easy it is to fall into losing sleep because of the "Just one more turn" mentality I had 20 years ago. Of course now days the pain of that missing sleep is far, far greater.
At least I should go to bed on time tonight. I have to prep my Pathfinder game so we can actually play tomorrow night.
