SUPER!PASS

An interesting turn. Lot's of cards there, but a successful pass for Team Humans. Good communications there folks, on both sides of the table. Makes this GM smile :: wipes crocodile tear from eye ::

Let's see, what do we win with that Super!Pass... "No Effect". Wow, I think y'all are going for the whole matched set on that one. It's an interesting collectible, but hey, everyone has their hobbies, right?

There is no activation, jump track, or adding birds to the airspace. So, that should wrap up this round.

Team Human: Don't forget about that civilian ship floating around there. Of course, y'all discussed FTL, so if you go for the early jump, that would clear that problem. But that would have a high probability of population loss.

I'll advance the turn and forward the new cards to Zarek.

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

Do I understand correctly that the civvie ship is not in danger for at least one more turn? And that if we survive one more crisis with a jump icon we will auto jump?

I'm going to send a "friend" of mine over to sick bay with some special get-better-juice for our Admiral. Wake up, sir!

I play a G2 to xo Tigh.

The civvie ship is TWO activations away. One to get the raiders into the sector, one to attack them. If you get a jump track card for your next crisis card, it will auto jump you.

However, we have no clue what the next crisis card will put out there. Crisis cards can add things to the field that could change that. (Well, by "we" I mean y'all. I can cheat and look at batters circle and see what's on deck.)

Yes.

Actually I was going to suggest that FTL was one of the least interesting options. Personally, if Zarek gets an XO I would suggest that Tigh move to Communications to see what is on that ship and move it one more square away from the raiders. (I'm unclear on whether the basestars move on activation--the rules don't say, so I assume no).

Other options would be moving to Command and launching vipers, or moving to the Lab and pulling a Tactics card.

ETA: And he did. Awesomecakes. Prez, what do you think about moving/action options for Tigh?

Excellent. Mr. Admiral? Where do you wish to go? You have to stay on Galactica, as you have no cards to toss to move to Colonial One.

Actually, scratch going to the Lab, I forgot about Tigh's weakness.

Does Tigh draw purple? If so I think scouting the crisis deck is a good idea. edit: oops,if he had any cards that is.

Sorry, Admiral but now that we know who the cylons are I don't see much point to repairing your quarters.
