My previous comment was about the character, not the player. I'm sorry if it seemed aimed in any way at *you*, Sean.
BSG
Everything has a price, especially life. And apparently, I have to make the military decisions, while the "Pradmiral" and his friends just shout bad words at the toasters.
"Chief Tyrol, this is Tom Zarek. I know you work for the President/Admiral, and that I'm no longer...well, anyone of importance. But you must believe me when I say nothing is as important as destroying that basestar. FIRE AT IT!"
BSG
I play an Executive Order (1G) on the Chief.
BSG
Chief Tyrol, you have received an XO. When you're ready, please post either your move and action, or your two actions.
BSG
Oh, Mr Zarek, did you want to move anywhere?
BSG
Nope. Zarek has his hand hovering over the "BZZT! New President!" button at all times, so he'll hang out in Administration. I should have explicitly said so, though - I'll be clearer when Zarek's playing big-spider-in-his-web again.
BSG
Very cool. Given that Laga can do 2 actions, can both of them be to use Weapons Control, or are locations limited to one use per turn?
BSG
I can't find any rule restricting locations to one-use-per-player-turn - but I'll definitely defer to the much more experienced -bt
BSG
Well, fingers crossed. Being able to shoot twice at the basestar gives us a real chance that it'll be destroyed.
BSG
I fire on the base star and wait to see if I can do it again.
