Welcome aboard, Admiral. We may have to put your retirement on hold, I'm afraid.
To summarise, this is our roster:
Apollo
(omnis)
Helo
(Kalshane)
Zarek
(Sean)
Adama
(NoiseDesign)
Boomer
(Laga)
I'm sending out Loyalty Cards. President Zarek also gets a Quorum Card.
Everyone except the first player (Apollo) also receives three skill cards at game start, taken from their usual skill set. (That is, look at the five cards you normally draw, and take away two.) Everyone except Apollo, post or email me the colours you would like to draw, and I'll send out your starting skill cards.
Once we're done with all that, Apollo's turn will start.
BSG
Sorry, didn't see Laga's post. Laga takes Boomer instead of Roslin (I'll update the above post). That means Mr Zarek is President, and receives a Quorum card.
This is the first game where everyone is playing our own gender.
BSG
Update: we're almost ready. Once we finalise the starting card draws, the Flight of the Battlestar Buffistica 3 will begin.
Another detail: Apollo starts the game in a viper, and has the choice of either Sector 5 or Sector 6. He has chosen Sector 5.
BSG
President Zarek begins in Administration, on Colonial One. I'll provide a full summary of the starting set-up before Apollo's turn.
(if that doesn't get him, to airlock me, not sure what will)
Oh, I'll just save it up for the next game... or maybe Xbox Live.
Here's a link to an in-engine trailer for the new Halo out next year. It is very damn pretty.

Apollo, your turn begins here. I'm sending you your card draw. (Apollo has opted to draw 1 Yellow and 1 Green as part of his card draw.) When you're ready, please post your move and action.

Hey Team (assumed all) Humans. I'm thinking an XO here for someone to fire on that humping double Y ship. What do we think? I wish it could be Helo, so when his turn comes up, he can stay there and get that cool reroll ability if he shoots a blank the first time.
