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

BSG

Final plays:

Destiny: 2 cards
Helo: 4 cards
Roslin: 1 card
Gaeta: 1 card
Starbuck: 0 cards
Dee: 2 cards
Ellen: 4 cards

Let's see where that gets us. Cards played:

Preventative Policy 3
Investigative Committee 4
Preventative Policy 5
Executive Order 1
Executive Order 2
At Any Cost 3
Declare Emergency 3
Declare Emergency 4
Declare Emergency 4
At Any Cost 4
Declare Emergency 5
Critical Situation 4
Evasive Maneouvre 1
Scientific Research 3

Tally: 38 - 8 = 30. I think you just might have squeaked that one in. The crew rushes to defend Ellen Tigh's honour! Even Ellen, which is a first. You really deserve something more than 'no effect'. Tell you what, here's a shiny button. You can take turns holding it or something.

There's also a heavy raider activation, which does nothing, and a jump icon. That concludes the short reign of Admiral Eccentrica Gallumbits. Helo retrieves his bars and prepares for his turn. Admiral Agathon, when you're ready, please post your move and action.

Electromagnetic candy! - Stark

The player's furious, and won't be returning to this forum for future gaming or conversation.

The character doesn't give a damn.

Hurry up and finish the damn game, I'm done with the lot of you and want to never, ever see any of you in my inbox again.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

BSG

Okay...

In any case, Helo, if you are in fact a human and not a Cylon, I would ask that you XO me so I can Scout the Destination Deck, possibly twice, to try to find us a jump that will get us to 8 without exhausing our fuel.

I'm sorry, StuntHusband. We clearly haven't taken enough care to keep the game friendly and fun.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

BSG

Tell you what, here's a shiny button. You can take turns holding it or something.

Ooh, ooh, I want to push the button!

*pushes the button*

Huh. I feel kind of funny. No, not funny. This feels kind of...right. I think I know who I am!

I am Karl "Helo" AGATRON!!!

As I bid adieu to Galactica, I discard EO-1, EO-1, LS-1, LS-2, and EM-1. Oh, and I pass my extra Loyalty Card to the newly adorned Admiral Gaeta.

But that's not all, filthy humans! Have fun Drawing Treachery Cards.

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

The player's furious, and won't be returning to this forum for future gaming or conversation.

I'm so sorry I don't understand how this happened. Is there anything I can do to make things right?

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

BSG

Helo's Loyalty card requires all humans to make a random discard and draw 1 Treachery card. Helo himself then draws 2 Treachery cards. The random discards are:

Roslin: Investigative Committee 4
Gaeta: Repair 2
Starbuck: Major Victory 1
Dee: Critical Situation 3
Ellen: At Any Cost 5

New Treachery is going out. After that it will be President Roslin's turn.
