Okay, if Chief gets an XO, I would suggest that he XO Zarek to do his OPG and then draw cards, preferably purple, which shows up on many regular crisis cards and all Super crisis cards (except the non-skill check one).
The next few turns should be interesting to say the least.
BSG
Oh, wow. What are the odds, huh? Just as well you evaded my Nukes.
Seriously? Didn't we already get that crisis like two or three times?
You did, twice before. Of course, those first two did you a favour, ensuring that the sympathiser would be human (for certain values of 'human').
This one makes up for it though. You have earned a ventage!
I have three ways to draw two cards.
Just on the secrecy rules, it may be a bit much to specify the number of ways you have. Not that it's a big deal, and it's certainly ok to state that you have the capacity to do so.
BSG
Ugh. Note to self: never again make the food the resource you intentionally sacrifice to keep the Sympthazer on Team Human. Yeesh.
Yeah, it's sounding like Soylent Green time.
BSG
Home again. I recalled correctly Yes on Jump Track. Raider activation. Nothing added to the board. Since we have clear skies, that activation is void.
Before we get to that point, the President has to discard 2 cards. Please post what those are.
But I neeeed them.
Very well. I discard a Y1 and a P1.
BSG
Excellent! Food decreases, jump track advances. And that brings us to the end of the round.

Move: Weapons Control Never hurts to have someone ready to shoot at basestars.
Action: Play G2 XO on Zarek. Do your thing, Mr. President. May the gods forgive us.
BSG
for my first action I will play a Y1 Consolidate Power and draw two Purple cards.
And for my next magical trick, "Hey everybody! Look over there! What prison transport? I don't recall there being a prison transport in the sector of space I just directed your attention away from."
I'm using my OPG Unconventional Tactics to reduce population and increase food by 1.
"Hey everybody! Barbeque!"
Soylent Green is Zarek's grandmother's home-cooked recipe!
"You never know what's coming, the stake is not the power, to serve man is a cookbook, I love you! Go away!"
