In non BSG news. Two nights in a row seems to confirm it. Yikerz is a cool game. With two, it's very good. With 5, we found it less predictable when we made it three triangles instead of four. All in all, it's easy, it's cheesy, it's magnets, it's COOL! And thanks to Comic-Con, you get to say "Magnets, how the fuck do they work!" while playing. One thought, don't play on a wobbly table. Lots of extra clusters. oops.

While Boomer was drawing Piloting (Red) cards, we ran out, and reshuffled.
eta:
Card draw has been sent to Boomer.

I will
play a Launch Scout-1, targetting the Crisis Deck.

hello from the library. I'm here for about 45 minutes then I'm going to my sister's classroom to do a poetry reading.
BSG
While you're here, do you wish to play an SP on my scouting mission, or pass? (I don't think it's necessary, we're still well stocked with raptors.)
BSG
Yeah, it's my last card. I'm going to hold on to it for now.
BSG
Remind me what an
SP
is again?
BSG
Strategic planning, you play it before a die roll to add 2 to the result.
Purple 3,4 or 5
BSG
Good choice. Oh, it might not be a bad idea to send omnis some COs for your turn. (Main variables I see: whether or not you draw an XO, and whether or not we jump on my Crisis. Also if I leave a card on top with my Recon.)
As always, if you give me an XO, I can go plumbing for more ICs. Unless we've jumped 3 Distance and I'm in the Brig, in which case I'm probably not such a good choice.
