Boomer? what about you?
BSG
You know, I think this is the first time you've had a fully negative Destiny, in a check you weren't tanking at least.
I play a Yellow-3. Total is now -8.
BSG
Tigh and Chief, since we now need to come up with 15, are we still playing cards into this check? (Given that Zarek is not able to help and I can only help a little.)
BSG
Ugh. I really don't want to tank this one, but Destiny certainly didn't help us. Depending on what Tigh has, we might be able to get it close.
I just really don't want to drop any resource to 2 right before back to back Cylon turns. On the other hand, I'd hate to waste cards just to lose population anyway.
Grrr. Trying to figure out to phrase things without violating secrecy rules.
I think we have to be confident we can pass at least one hypothetical check the toasters throw at us before we can give up on this one.
BSG
I think, Per the FAQ, that you can state how many cards you intend to play. (I'll check on that when I can.) you can also state whether the total is high or low (or medium, if you play multiple cards.)
Edit: reading again, I think that being able to specify how many cards might apply only n it's your turn to add them (which might matter for a F2F game, but doesn't here). But it's ambiguous, so it's the Mod's call. (I think it'd at least be ok to say whether you can play no, one, a few or several cards.)
BSG
(Edited since BT objected.) I can play a medium amount into the check via multiple cards.
BSG
No, you can't. You can say whether the total is low, medium or high. You can't break it down into individual cards.
