I'd love to join in a future game, but since I've never seen the board or cards or anything else, I'd probably either out myself as a Cylon or get us all killed within the first three turns.
We offer excellent newbie support...
Maybe I've always been here.

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

Speaking of using the board I want to play another live version of the game once I'm back in Pasadena.Count me in! Woot!
We offer excellent newbie support...And bt's support for newbie GM has been most excellent, generous, and helpful!
or get us all killed within the first three turns.Wow, that would take some doing. I'd be interested in seeing how that would work. (as long as I'm a Cylon, of course!)

I can get there in three turns, with the right cards.
Turn 1: Ambush. Basestar activates, damages Galactica.
Turn 2: Heavy Assault. Basestars attack Galactica - 3 damage total.
Turn 3: Fulfiller of Prophecy. Basestars activate - up to 5 damage. The current player choose the OR option, which sees this Crisis Card discarded after the activation, and a new one drawn.
Turn 3a: Reqeusted Resignation. Basesetars activate again, bringing Galactica up to 6 damage - Galactica destroyed!

Wow, Boomer, you seemed just a little too excited about that.

I agree, a little excited. But with only three steps, shouldn't there be some mention of Kevin Bacon or something?

Honored members of the quorum, I appreciate your promise of future support. What else can you do for me?
(I elect to draw another quorum card)

Oops. In classic "Newbie" fashion, I've made a mistake in the e-mail. There will be heavy raider added to the board in Sector 1, thanks to the lovely mother ship there.
Which means, ND, we kinda played the game wrong the other week. Oops.
Thanks bt for pointing out that rule.
