I reached out to our seclueded President. It seems the talk of Brig has him a bit incognito. Doctors suspect PTSD. Either way, he said to play G4. I hope he was talking about the card, and not turning the TV. Here is where we are at now.

Helo, it's to you. Others, feel free to send along CO's to make things flow faster.

Admiral? Sir? Are you awake? Does anyone have any smelling salts?

Dude, I posted RIGHT after you did. Like, .74 seconds after you posted.

The Admiral smacks the petty officer around for his insolence.

Well, the Admiral pushes us into the PASS zone. So? Chief? You can spike? Or waste cards? Or pass?

Huh. Smaking around the GM. Just because you are admiral, don't think we can't frak with you. Brave? Stupid? Or just drunk?

A friend got the Pegasus expansion and I took a look at it today. Holy crap, Cain & Dee's turn powers are awesome and Kat's negative ability is horrendous.

I'll whitefont their abilities for those that are interested - On a result of 10 or better in the Admiral's quarters, Cain can choose to execute someone rather than Brig them. If Dee is in Communications, she can look at -and move- all the civilian ships rather than just 2 of them. Kat has to keep moving. If she ends her turn in the same location as she started, she's sent to Sickbay.That last one seems crazy harsh.

I'm the frakkin' Admiral godsdammit! I can smack around anyone I want!

((No hard feelings, omnis. The scruffy grumpyness of my character just needs to vent.))

Pete, I've only peeked at Pegasus myself but it looks pretty interesting. Me, I love the new treachery skill (and that Ellen Tigh is the only (possible) human to get it, alongside the super Cylons).

Ha! No worries DQ. I know. But as GM I gotta put the fear back into ya. Oh wait, drunks don't feel fear.
