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

unrelatedly, I have a D&D question. I have some awesome shenanigans planned for my ~~victims~~ players tonight, but I want to make sure...

I don't prompt them for an insight check, right? It's on them if they want to check to see if they really believe the guy leading them deeper and deeper into the swamp is the missing messenger, correct?

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

If you're playing 4e, I think that if they don't mention it, they get a passive Insight check (10 + their modifier).

I move to the Human Fleet and for my action take a gander at Helo's cards.

edit: my card draw was Green, Purple btw

I assume the looking at Helo's hand is done in secret, but is the stolen card also secret? (Although obviously Helo would know what was stolen.)

Noooooo, my precioussess! Saved from the Crash Landing only to be stolen by a Cylon vixen.

Eta: it seems like it should be secret to me. If we were playing F2F, she'd look at all my cards and keep one and no one else would know what it was, right?

Note, in addition to being able to steal one of Helo's cards, Human Fleet also allows for a die roll, with 5+ damaging Galactica.

However, it looks like Starbuck has only rolled a 2. That would barely damage Serenity.

Yep, it's just between Starbuck, Helo and his insurance company what he lost.

I'll get you next time, and your little daggit, too!
