So we spent 7 cards (counting the IC) to save 4? If I ran the decks with that level of efficiency, our pilots would be down to taking running leaps out the launch tubes and flapping their arms.
Well, if you say it like
that,
of course it's going to sound bad.
Seriously, I did raise the option of tanking this one after we saw how bad Destiny was; but Helo's not wrong. If we'd succeeded we'd have saved the Morale too, so the way it looked at the start, there was something else to try for. In hindsight it didn't work out, but I believe going for it was an honest call.
BSG
Guys, any other thoughts on what I do?
ETA: Also, isn't Kalshane Apollo this time around?
BSG
Ooh! I know this one! Umm... XO somebody! Helo or Zarek could maybe do good things with one.
ETA: Also, isn't Kalshane Apollo this time around?
No, Kalshane's playing Chief Tyrol (swoon). ND's taken Apollo this time.
Since I'm already in the Press Room, I could draw 4 yellow with an XO, right?
BSG
That is correct. And it would be
awesome.
BSG
Very well. I XO Helo (Megan), with the request that she draw cards from the Press Room.
Now we shall see if she does what I ask....
The XO is my action. I do not move.
Awesomecakes!
I will indeed do as you ask and remain in the Press Room and
Draw 4 Yellow
skill cards as my two actions.
BSG
Now we shall see if she does what I ask....
I almost hope he doesn't. We'd have found our first Cylon very cheaply.
Edit: Helo is a mammal!
I dunno, we still have to see what she DOES with those yellow cards.
