PBF: BSG #001 - So Say We All

Apollo, I need to know how strongly you went in. I can play in very weak, or I can play in around the same value as Tigh; however, if I play in like Tigh, I'll be giving up a useful card. It's a bit tougher to decide knowing the Destiny cards could work for us or against us...

I need help deciding, everyone. Also, is anyone putting in Skill Check Abilities?

I say we beat this crisis if we can. It has some pretty aerious consequences

Hey, Apollo, any chance you can use some Piloting cards to make it to those Raiders and take'em out before they activate and take shots at Galactica?

Subject: Re: PBF: BSG #001 - So Say We All Thu Dec 18, 2014 12:36 pm

No, but I can make it hard as possible to hit me. And force them to target me.

Action 1: CAG Action -move from Sector 4 to sector 3.
CAG Bonus Action: I will move one unmanned viper from Sector 4 to Sector 3 .
Action 2: CAG Action -move from Sector 3 to sector 2.

pass on interrupts

Pass on interrupts.

I can play in VERY weak for this one, team, but I can also get a couple of extra Destiny cards involved, which might more likely work against us than for us in this case. Any suggestions? Just go in weak and leave it at that? Or do you maybe not need me to come in at all?

Subject: Re: PBF: BSG #001 - So Say We All Thu Dec 18, 2014 10:06 pm

Due to the Admiral's drunken stupor, he discards his last Skill Card

I know I'm not the President anymore, but ordering people around is just too addictive...

I can Executive Order Apollo again and he can clear out those raiders. Unless someone else feels it would be better for me to order them around instead.

Admin, please clarify two things:
1. Since cards are discarded face up, then shouldn't we all know what the Admiral's last card was?
2. If Roslin gives Tigh the XO, could he use Command on the unmanned Viper in Sector 3 to move it, then have it fire once, then use Command again to have it fire another two times?

Roslin, depending what Admin answers to #2, that would help identify whether XO should be given to Tigh or Apollo. Unless Apollo has some cards he can play, he would only be able to take out 2 Vipers maximum (move an unmanned Viper, then shoot twice), whereas Tigh could potentially take out all three.

On another note, considering how weak Tigh and I have become regarding Skill cards, do you have any useful actions to protect a resource or something? There must be something you can do with the 7 cards in your hand...

Admin Posts : 192 Join date : 2014-12-01 Age : 41

1. Correct! Tigh discards 0-Iron Will **

2. Negative, he could not activate the same viper twice. It's "Activate up to 2 unmanned vipers" meaning one activation each.

#1: You mean to tell me Tigh had a card that could have made us pass the Skill Check, but he didn't play it??? HO-LY FRAK!

Tigh, you frakkin' Cylon, you better have a good explanation for this one... Mad

#2: I'm contesting your interpretation of the rules, Admin. Q&A forums indicate the same Viper can be moved multiple times, but if the player wishes, they can divide the activation among up to two different Vipers. Link explaining: http://boardgamegeek.com/thread/528311/activating-unmanned-vipers-question

Please look into it further, or call me to discuss as this is crucial and can easily be interpreted both ways...

Tigh, what's your reason for letting us lose that Skill Check??
