You bring up a good point, but we don't know what the immediate crisis will bring. A number of them don't even require cards, or purple necessarily (although many do).

I think I'd still launch vipers, but I also think I had a gut instinct Apollo was a toaster and Zarek the same about Boomer, so, personally, I am fine with you going with your gut.

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

I have a lot of respect for your guts. I was not very lucky with my card draw- we'll need all the help we can get in a crisis.

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

AS the lab would result in a card I can play into a crisis (but would otherwise be entirely useless after this round), possibly, and we are INSANELY low on cards, AND as the civvies are not in immediate jeopardy (though they may be soon)--what would you prefer I do?

I would prefer that you offer some CRAZY deals on all your Isuzu trucks and vans. They're practically DRIVING themselves out the airlock!

Ok. Forgive me if this doesn't go as planned. Pretendy funtime games and all that.

I Move to the Lab and for my Action, draw a purple card.

Anyone else thinking that the "Research" "Lab" is actually just a gigantic still?

With Admiral Fire Breath done with his MOVE and ACTION, that brings us to the CrIsIs CaRd!!! (what? I'm trying to be dramatic).

Brace yourselves...

Since the Drunken Sailor didn't get to play his solo card in the skill check, the lush lost it at the chow hall. The discard pile is now one P1 richer.

Helo, email is on the way shortly.

eta: While dealing cards to Helo, Tactics deck was reshuffled.
