GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

Matt Mercer, voice actor and DM for the show Critical Role (where he and a bunch of fellow voice actors play D&D 5th Ed), recently did an episode dedicated to giving DM Advice and teaching some newbies how to play since he was down a few players at a critical point in the game's storyline: [link]

ETA: Having watched the game portion now, it never ceases to amaze me how quickly adventurers, even when played by newbies, turn to arson as a solution.

Missed yesterday due to a party for Sean at our place.

If I can get into the air then I could take some shots from a viper, but I think that will take me multiple moves to get there since I'm on Colonial One. My other option is to keep working the Quorum and hope for some good stuff. Any opinions?

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

Plus, the hangar deck is damaged. Working the quorum might pay off.

I think we should push the button, and get the frak out of here.

But I'm on Colonial One. Can I make it to the button in one move from here?

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

You can move to any location on Galactica. You just have to discard a card to do so.

Ah, okay then, I MOVE to FTL Control and Press the button.

To do this I DISCARD LS-2

Button! 3 Population is at risk. The roll may be modified by an SP. Everyone, please pass or play.

I'm too drunk to have a plan. I'm good with suggestions, if that helps.
