[board] The Battlestar Galactica Languish Project

[Martinus]

I just have one card that could be useful, and it's rather weak. So considering that both the Admiral and Starbuck are on this, I don't think my assistance will be necessary. Pass.

[Barrister]

I can help only a little bit, and that'll mean I'll have no cards at all until my next turn (which is one after next).  I think I have to offer only moral support.

[grumbler]

So, we are basically deciding to deliberately fail this one?
Apollo, Baltar, Tigh, and The President all passing?  I guess I will not waste even a small card, then, and suggest the Admiral do the same.

I didn't think there could be four Cylons in the fleet!

I have one small card, and playing it will cause me to discard my remaining card.  You think that's a good idea?

What part of "I've no relevant cards" was hard to understand? I suppose I could exert influence to make sure it was harder for the admiral to be rescued.

It's a job for those with Tactical and Piloting skills. I'm a scientist!

Yes, if it saves a fuel.

If you have no one-skill cards, then you don't.  You were not the likeliest person to be helping, anyway.  My point was that we had four people back out, when I would have expected two at the most.

Any [1] skill card counts as positive, as the inspirational Admiral pointed out.  I cannot think of a better use for those [1] skill engineering cards, since we have no damaged vipers.

[JacobL]

I kicked in 1 card.  Don't expect any support on any other checks for some time.

[grumbler]

I'll toss a card if Tigh does (since I accept that maybe the Prexie doesn't have any one-skill cards, her being furthest from her draw).  It will be a small one, though.  If Baltar comes through with even a [1] skill card of any type, I think we can do it.

[Barrister]

Fine.  I'll throw in my card.

You and I are the fighting types.  Most of the skill checks (more than 3/4 of them, in fact) don't require piloting.  Tactics, yes (29 of 41).  There are a few tactics cards that are damned useful in a fight, but they probably will be spent on skill checks.

[grumbler]

Fine.  I'll throw in my card.

And I, mine.

[grumbler]

C'mon Baltar, you have four cards.  Surely one of them is a [1].
