I play a G2

So, assuming Chief is willing to use his OPG (took me a second to figure that one out), we have just passed this check.

I will wait to post my play (or non-play) until he confirms that that is okay with him.

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

Is there still a chance Chief is a cylon?

No, unless Drew is somehow convinced that playing all those reds was a smart move for the humans.

But I think it proper to wait for Chief's opinion on how to use his own ability.

Oops, I was more thinking about moving the game along. Sorry if I assumed too much.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

I can't XO someone to activate the Admiral's Quarters (provided I draw an XO) because the location is currently damaged. The only way to Brig Apollo before his turn is for to repair and then activate the AQ myself.

But yeah, this sounds like a great time to use my Blind Devotion ability. Mr GM, kindly negate any Red cards in this check.

ETA: I'm leaning towards brigging Apollo, since we can still Auto Jump even with FTL Control damaged.

If you xo me I can brig Apollo with a quorum card.

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

If you xo me I can brig Apollo with... umm... telekinetic mind rays! It'll be AWESOME!

Is this some kind of zen koan? "Ceci n'est pas une pipe" territory? Are you trying to blow my synthetic mind with logical paradox? Because that only works in bad sci fi shows.

I still think the Chief could be your other Cylon. Could a mere human be that good with machines? And I'm speaking from experience here. Yowza!

How's this for a plan, then: if I draw an XO, I'll repair FTL and XO Zarek. If I don't, I'll repair the AQ and try to brig Apollo.
