I had not yet sent in any COs. Now, I have decided to pass, but I hadn't actually said that yet.

If the basestars start launching a ton of stuff, consider XOing me to launch a nuke. I don't want to waste them, but they are an option.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

Do I want to use my last card to aid this roll?

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

BSG

Aw, crap. Those basestars are about to shoot at us again. No jump icon either.

So, what does everyone think for this one? We've already lost 2 off both Morale and Population. The Admiral's got six cards, so if he passes up the Presidency at least he won't go off on a bender. Tigh's OPG power lets him grab the Presidency, the same as this card does.

Another comment: at the moment, our lowest resource is Food. All the Food Shortage and Water Shortage crisis cards are President's Choice. The President also controls any Food Rationing cards from the Quorum. In other words, the President has the most control over our Food of any player. It's important at this stage that we have a President we can trust.
