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

shit so I should have launched RSVs instead of moving civvy ships? Is it too late to change my mind?

I've already sent you details of the two civilian ships, so it's too late to do something different there. You may, however, give them different orders once you've seen what they contain.

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

I am so sorry. No more drinking and posting. I'll leave D where it is and go ahead and move A to sector 5.

It's all cool. They don't call them "warm fuzzy" cards, after all. Like the show, this game is unrelentingly grim. Humans win against the odds and cylons live on schadenfreude. Candyland it ain't.

We're so screwed.

Also, because of the element of hidden traitors trying to hide their evil doing, there is a lot of excessive moaning.

Candyland it ain't.

This game has a number of elements similar to werewolf/mafia. The current werewolf game I'm in is BSG themed, so that's only highlighting the similarities.
