I will shoot at the OF, and if I kill them prep another ship, if I don't I will shoot at them again.
I agree, it was just a theoretical question
The answer is "Yes".
It's a good card to play in situations where loss of a resource is highly likely. In this particular case .. well, it really does depend on how well certain people roll while attempting to kill centurions, and on what the crisis does in terms of activations. Chances of killing a centurion are 50/50 without strat. planning, in which case it's 25% chance that both attacks miss. And then there is only a certain percentage chance - not sure what percentage, let's just assume 50% - that there is a occupation force activation icon on the crisis card. Bringing it down to 12.5% chance that a civilian ship is destroyed this turn. And then we still have to draw a civvie token .. one of them is blank.
So all in all my estimation is that the chances that this was a useful card to play are about 10%. Provided that the same thing is done as last time, of course and that the humans do not start doing other stuff because they feel the civvie stack can take the hit now ;-)
That being said .. statistics is one thing. What really happens .. let's just have a look, shall we?
## Prompting for Strategic Planning
*grin*
Action queue
=> All humans: State whether you play a Strategic Planning into this roll or not.

hmmmm....it is a little risky if it is the last we have as colonials, although cain is up next and might have one now or draw one...hard to say for certain. Jopi announcing playing of SP right now would be sweeeet.
No. As I pointed out to our dear cylons, the rules forbid Cylons from using actions or abilities printed on skill cards, with the sole exception of Treachery cards.
Humans are disallowed from doing same with Treachery.
Yeah! Cylons need to start pulling their weight or we will vote them off this world! ...using our guns!....and battlestars!...we hid them under some brush...we totally still have battlestars....
I will now inflitrate a Baneblade into the back of our base for us to use.
Right.
## Roll: 2+2 = 4
Gunfire ricochets off the centurion's shiny metal hull to no effect.
## Eternaly_lost takes another shot at the centurion!
(speeding through the SP prompt for obvious reasons..)
## Roll: 2 = 2
More gunfire ricochets off the Centurion's shiny metal exterior. His guns slowly swivel in the direction of the humans ..
Baltar is a pretty poor shot it seems. He's too afraid, isn't he?
Crisis:
Code:
[U]Prepare for a Fight [/U]
Current Player Chooses:
Skill check: [COLOR="Lime"]LEA[/COLOR]/[COLOR="darkorchid"]TAC[/COLOR]/[COLOR="DeepSkyBlue"]ENG[/COLOR] = 8
PASS: Destroy 1 Occupational Force
FAIL: -1 Morale and if current player is on New Caprica, he is sent to Detention
OR
Current player chooses a human player on New Caprica to send to Medical Center
POST CRISIS: Activate Raiders and Occupational Forces, +1 EVACUATION AND PREPARE FOR JUMPedit:
For the record: :rofl::rofl::rofl:
No idea why but .. this is too funny for words. The crisis deck really has it out for Jacob, it seems.
Action queue:
=> Jacob-lundgren: Crisis choice
As odd as it is, our best action right now is to pass this and destroy the OF in Occupation Authority, not in the space yard. If we are luckly, the OF here will destroy a ship that is worth 1 and we will not take a population loss, removing all the OF on the map.
Well we can either burn a bunch of cards to try and pass this, or I could send myself to the medical center? Atm I have 10 cards and someone can XO me before my turn perhaps anyways later? Thoughts?
edit: misread the crisis. we will try to pass it. Didn't see the destroy 1 OF
edit: misread the crisis. we will try to pass it. Didn't see the destroy 1 OF
Yes, exactly, destoy the one that is not the space yard when we pass this, it will help a lot, as we already are preventing the loss of one population when a ship is destoryed.
I play Leadership-3 (At Any Cost) on this.
