+ the three civvies from the crisis.
I was looking forward to that nuke.
They all go in Delta. I mean the one from the raider activation moving the pursuit track.
Well, not exactly the best crisis I want to see right now. I am leaning towards option 2 because by placing the basestar there, it would slow down the persuit track, the problem though is how are we going to get rid of 9 civ ships with 2 cylons running around. Boomer and Tory, any suggestions?
Since j_L hasn't discarded, I'll discard:
Engineering-1(Repair)
Engineering-1(Repair)
Politics-2(Consolidate Power)
Engineering-1(Repair)
Engineering-1(Repair)
Politics-2(Consolidate Power)
If we go with option 2. The CAG does not have to place a civilan ship, as something happens on active raiders. Namely the basestar launches a few of them. As for clearing them up. Our CAG can hop in a viper vII, and send a unmanned to that location and start pulling them off.
I suggest that we do go with option 2.

Right now I really need to hear from jL to figure out what we want to do. Hm. Imprisoning Gaeta is tempting, especially if jL has an XO. That would leave just Boomer to try and stop me from a double roll SP and Calculations nuke at those 7 civs. But there are a lot of ifs for that to work.
I don't think that J-L is going to be back before your 24 hour time limit... Given that he got what 4 hours?
Yeah, your move will have to be made in the next few hours.
If you PM me, I can give you the normal information you can get from a player on his hand, to assist you in making an informed move.
The problem is what I really want to talk is strategy. Do we reveal ourselves this cycle, or do we wait until the next one? What can we try and accomplish while still unrevealed? I've got almost zero experience to go on.
EDIT: Stupid me, why am I helping the Cylons? Sorry, this is edited within 30 seconds so I doubt anyone saw it
If jacob isn't back before morning I can maybe help, but I would really allow kiwi a bit more time in this case. A lot hinges on the chosen cylon strategy here..
I sent stuff, so in case you have to help, you can decide based on that.
I'll give some more time for you to look through things and help him decide.
You're lucky I was reading a long update in the Aurora thread, because normally I'm quick enough to catch these things
I am interested in what was in that post, so if you don't mind PMing it to me.
It's a bit of a shame that cylon / human strategy discussion tends to disappear off the board once the cylons have been revealed. I bet it would make some mighty fine reading.
And given that Jacob isn't back yet - personally, Kiwi, you have two options;
(I know, I'm listing more than that down below, but frankly those are the only two options worth persuing, imho.)
1) Flee.
Take your marbles and go home. The main danger here is the humans executing you guys, especially via quorum cards. This is the safe option, but it's also the least fun.
2) The brigging game.
Try to throw as many humans in the brig as possible through the AQ. This has a number of advantages, the least of which is that you can get admiral back that way, as well as burning them through cards that they need. If you are successful here you can do a rather large amount of damage, even if you don't actually brig them. Brigged characters can't be admiral and can only play 1 card into skill checks, on top of getting that human back into the game means the humans needing to spend actions and cards to get that player back out again.
If this strategy is successful it can completely annihilate the humans. Seriously.
Drawback: If you fail, the humans get to try to throw you guys off the ship, instead.
3) Executing humans for fun and profit.
Nice, but it isn't nearly as effective as the brig, IMHO. It also costs them cards and morale, but the effects from brigging someone are bigger, imho.
4) Some combination. I brigged someone as part of a reveal, some games back. That's nice, but it also means giving up on getting control of the ship.
5) Activating locations other than AQ and the airlock:
Not so much of an option, really. At best you can get some cards or perhaps take the presidency.
As for who to brig - the president is the most dangerous here, when it comes to fighting for control of the fleet. Tori can farm a lot of cards through XO's and potentially hurt you guys through quorum cards. Making that one less effective should take priority here.
By the way, is this a game with a symphatizer? Or are we using some variant here?
