I'm also really excited for The Beatles Rock Band. The art is GREAT. [link]Oh my. I've been holding out on Rock Band. I think I just found the excuse to buy it. Me LUVS Beatles!

With the Admiral choice out there, I'm not sure of the long term consequences of each to give good advice. I'd lean towards avoiding the combat, but that could be my own personal pacifist tendencies.

Given that, picking a viper pilot was an interesting choice. I may have to design some Skill Cards which offer a "Can't we all just get along?" action.
Ahem, Boomer is a RAPTOR pilot. IJS.

A raptor pilot who so far has done considerably more in the way of shooting and blowing stuff up than your CAG has managed.
Ok, I should amend that a little. I think you've both managed to blow up exactly one craft. You got a basestar, he got his own viper. That's sort of even.

We got through the last cylon encounter with no civilian losses. Would this be our first loss of morale?
bt, you crack me up.

You've lost 1 Morale previously in turn 1.5, with the Skill Check Cylon Screenings (intentionally failed). If you choose -1 Morale at this point, it will go from 9 to 8. (-2 Population will take you from 12 to 10.)
I think it's a toss up but if I had to choose I'd go for the fight.

Oh the slander! I am a War Hero! A WAR HERO, I say! And hero that I am, I sent the inexperienced rapture pilot (in case of teh combat this viper will be unmanned) to fight the enemy which doesn't fight back -- which you have to admit is a bonus in a combat situation.
Ahem. In any case, the CAG votes for the combat. The -1 morale can be recovered by the President through a quorum card. Population is a one way slide; it doesn't ever come back. Plus, what kind of leaders are we if we make an emergency jump every time we see cylons, leaving civilians behind to their doom?
