Chief, if I may make a suggestion, it would be best not to XO either myself or the President. While I'm reasonably confident that I've demonstrated my humanity, nonetheless, my turn is immediately after yours, and it's best not to risk that. I can't do much with an XO anyway.
I'd recommend against XOing the President too. I don't have any reason to suspect him more than anyone else; but if he is the other Cylon, he has the greatest potential to cause trouble. (And really, if you're not a Cylon, and I'm not a Cylon, that leaves him with a 50/50 chance of toasterhood.)
You could XO Helo. It'd get him out of Sickbay, and is the safest time to do so. However, once again he could be a Cylon, in which case we don't want to give him extra actions
or
get him out of Sickbay. It's your call.
Of course, if you're the Cylon, then
why don't you just reveal already?! Get it over with, dammit! Enough with all the head games!!
So, y'know, your call.
showing my age: I just told my housemates I need the Monster Manual and the Fiend Folio. (I meant MM2)
Has anyone played Costume Quest on Xbox (you download it from Xbox). It's such a fun little game!
BSG
Yeah, well, with the skies blessedly empty and the ship without anything needing repair, I think a little exercise in trust is in good order.
I
move to Weapons Control
just for the heck of it and I
XO-1 Helo.
Get your tail out of sickbay, man, do us some good. We will probably need your full card draw by the time we get `round. Be human!
BSG
Thanks, Chief, I'll try not to disappoint.
I was thinking I'd move to the Research Lab or back to Press. I'm not in a position to do much of anything else, I don't think.
BSG
I was thinking I might head to the Press Room on my turn. You're now our only pilot, so it's probably best to keep you on Galactica. Research Lab sounds good, we can always use more Tactics. Alternatively, I'll be vacating Command, so that's an option. (Either way, for your action this tun a scouting mission wouldn't go amiss. I'd suggest saving any SPs. With three raptors left and clear skies it's not a crucial roll yet.)
BSG
I wish I could scout. Right, then, I
move
to the Research Lab and
draw purple.
BSG
Helo got his purple card and it was beautiful.
Your crisis is less so. In a fitting tribute to the current paranoia, it's
Guilt by Collusion (9GP).
Details to be sent shortly.
BSG
I hate to take another morale hit, but we may want to tank this one. Otherwise we're spending cards to put someone in the brig so we can then spend cards to get them back out. (Unless we decide they're a Cylon and want to leave them there.)
I sadly don't have any "Get Out of Jail Free" cards, or whatever the Quorum equivalent is, at the moment.
BSG
Ack! I have the paranoia at this stage, but not the evidence. The only one who`s not played in favor of Team Human since the sleeper phase kicked in is Baltar but that`s only because he hasn`t had a chance to, and the other two of you could still have been playing it close to the chest.
And yet, can we afford yet another morale hit? We almost certainly have the cards to pass this if we want to, but do we want to? Could we come to informed choice as to who should be brigged at this point?
