So, how many (disposable) cards can you guys contribute? I could solo this although I'd rather hold back a card or two.

TNT Preloaded
Randy uses SP-3
First roll is a 4+2=6
Second roll is a 2.
Boarding parties surive for another day.
Crisis!
At this point, I am willing to call it a Cylon Victory and skip the test. As all the Cylons have to do on their turn to win is to walk onto the Cylon Fleet and activate heavies. But we can play it out the rest of the way if you want.

Nah, I'm fine. The game was a foregone conclusion when we didn't manage to make it to distance 7 anyway.
Poor luck on the boarding parties, but at least we did try to kill it.

Crap. I don't suppose anybody has another Calculations hidden up their sleeve? 
But yes, I think we can assume competent Cylon play here so I guess congratulations are in order.

Anyone fancy a daybreak game? I can host one if people wanted.
Be warned though that the deck manager has not been updated with daybreak, so I will use other tools which means a bit of experimenting and things might take longer than expected initially.

Well, that was kind of anti-climactic. I guess that's just how the game goes. I won't complain though, a win is a win
Yay daybreak! I'd be up for one, obviously. Have you updated card lists and stuff? You can add those into the data file if you use notepad, so you could get away with using deckmanager for a large part of it.
Thanks for the game E_L. This game didn't play out very well for competitiveness but was still fun.
Thanks all!
And I can't be 100% sure, but I am almost postive I have never lost a BSG game here on this forum.

I would certainly be interested. I've already posted most of the updated stuff in this thread so you just have to copy and paste that into the rules.
Wasn't expecting such a large interest
Sure, I will set up a game shortly and I will work on getting the deck manager updated.
Just a quick heads up on what's new (only the most important bits):
Ideal player size is now 6, because cylon leader and mutineer is actually really fun to play and helps a lot with team balance.
If you are Human, don't hold back before sleeper phase and worry about you turn into a Cylon, to win now the distance required is 10 but sleeper phase still starts at 4 distance, so the last thing you need is to make yourself harder and if you turn into a Cylon in sleeper phase, you have plenty of time to destroy Humanity anyway.
As mentioned before cylon leader is really fun to play...., but you also need to have lots of experience with BSG so you know how to achieve your objectives, not recommended if you don't consider yourself an experienced player.
The new ship is really powerful and is how Humans can survive even going to 10 distance (instead of 8), Humans should seriously consider getting as much use out of it as possible (eg. each player draw 1 card for Captains Cabin favors more for Humans than Cylons since Cylon can put in only 1 card per skill check).
Other than that, I will go do the setup now and good luck everyone!
