All I can say is good luck, and I will stand by what you decide.

So, instead of Jimi Hendrix, you're hearing The Pretenders?

BSG

I can help with the check, but with how low we are on cards and the difficulty, plus the chromeheads tossing in cards to "help", I just don't see us passing it. I see taking the -1 food, as much as it hurts, as the best option.

BSG

Sadly, I agree. With everyone leaning that way, I choose the -1 Food option.

Therefore, we will not have a check and not need to use interrupts.

Let's hope that Tigh gets a decent draw and we can up our food this next turn.

BSG

As you wish. Done! Next up, let's check the activation. Raiders! Wheee. OK, that puts the ones in sector.... wait a second. Where did all my shiny toasters go? Gorrum it. Stupid jump ruins all the fun. OK, activation is your favorite "no effect". Ohhh, but there is Jump Track, so that gives me something to do. t click Wow, that was exciting. OK, here we go with the wrap up.

Fresh new cards to Admiral Tigh to be emailed shortly.

BSG

Oh, shiny new cards, I hate to part with you so soon, but...

President Zarek! Get the quorum brainstorming on how we can improve our food supplies. And I don't mean arguing and whining, I want results!

Move: Nowhere. I like the chemistry supplies in the lab. My still's starting to work quite nicely.

Action: Play a G1 to XO Zarek.

Let the record show that the Admiral is getting high on his own supply.

BSG

I'm assuming Zarek will first draw a Quorum card and then play one. Perhaps even twice.

I don't know what cards you have, but gaining food is obviously first priority.

If you don't have two Food Rationing cards, you might consider using one of the quorum cards that allows you to draw more cards (since we probably won't be activating either Admiral's Quarters or Administration, they will have no other effect).

BSG

Esteemed Quorum members, I know times seem bleak but I assure you we are close to finding a new home. Still, just to be safe, I believe we must implement a program of food rationing. What say ye?

I draw a quorum card.

My plan is to play two food rationing cards but even with SP they're a 50/50 shot at +1 food. Is it possible there's a quorum card still in the deck that will be better for us?

Not that I can think of offhand. There are ones to increase morale, of course. There's that one that destroys ships/centurions, but there's nothing on the board now.

BSG

There's also my OPG. If I play two ration cards to no avail, should I go find a copy of To Serve Man ?
