[board] The Battlestar Galactica Languish Project

[garbon]

Tamas - can we resolve this?

Unlikely, I haven't sent any cards in.

[garbon]

I passed in 4 cards.

[Tamas]

I could not decode grumbler's orders, I need him to reply me.

[Neil]

I could not decode grumbler's orders, I need him to reply me.

If grumbler's sending orders in code, he might be taking the game too seriously.

Also:  Starbuck is a man.

[grumbler]

I could not decode grumbler's orders, I need him to reply me.

Alas, since the PM system doesn't save outgoing PMs automatically, I cannot say "my card order was perfectly clear, and so which is the first one is obvious!!!oneoneone" 

I have PMed the corrected order.

[grumbler]

If grumbler's sending orders in code, he might be taking the game too seriously.

Just trying to avoid the fucking PM system.  Vain hope.

Also:  Starbuck is a man cylon.

FYP

[Tamas]

Okay so its supposed to be one from Berkut, 4 from garbon, and 1 from grumbler

[Tamas]

SKILL CHECK

FOR:
green: 2 pcs. of  Declare Emergency (4 and 5), Executive Order (2)
yellow: 2 pcs. of Consolidating Power (1 and 2), Investigative Comitee (3)

AGAINST:
purple: Launch Scout (2), Strategic Planning (5)

TOTAL:17-7=10=PASS

So no effect. The Heavy Raiders move toward the hangar decks, luckily the boarding party is no longer around to advance. Jump counter advances, however, and it is now in the -3 field meaning you can attempt a premature jump if you wish.

Admiral Tigh is up and will be receiving cards shortly.

[Barrister]

My copy of the rulebook is acting wonky.  Can anyone advise what our chances are of jumping right now?

[JacobL]

100% chance of jumping if you hit the controls but we have some fair odds of losing 2 population.

[Barrister]

What are the odds?  It may change what I do...

[garbon]

Yay, we passed it.

On another note, I'll be out all day. My company's annual day retreat starts in 9 minutes.

[Barrister]

Okay, I move to jump control and jump the Galactica.  I play Strategic Planning to hopefully avoid population losses. 

[Tamas]

Alright, an emergency jump is ordered!

Will all the civilian ships be able to follow Galactica? A roll of 6 or more is required to avoid losing 3 population points:

Request:  8-sided die x 1

6


Success!

The fleet remained together, the enemy ships are gone. Admiral Tigh will be receiving, probably as PM, the two destination choices

[Tamas]

And of course that roll had +2 from Strategic Planning.
