[board] The Battlestar Galactica Languish Project

[Martinus]

No, I don't have any [1]s left. As you may recall, I was forced to drop 3 cards by a crisis. What cards do you think I dropped?

[grumbler]

No, I don't have any [1]s left. As you may recall, I was forced to drop 3 cards by a crisis. What cards do you think I dropped?

  Yeah, I forgot that.

I guess its up to the Admiral to save his own life.  We've done all we could.

[Martinus]

A question: if the events take a turn for the worst, and Admiral Adama ends up in the sick bay, does it mean that Colonel Tigh takes over as an Admiral?

[garbon]

If things take a turn for the worst, I expect the admiral will say that a fuel loss is better than a morale drop and his injured person.

[Martinus]

Oh, I was assuming he would sacrifice himself. I thought that's what people in the military do.

Nope.  Only if Adama gets brigged (or reveals himself a Cylon) does the title pass.

[grumbler]

Agreed.  He only draws 1 card, not 5, if he starts in sickbay.  We need those cards.

[grumbler]

Oh, I was assuming he would sacrifice himself. I thought that's what people in the military do.

You thought... poorly.

[Martinus]

Well, it's reassuring that people in the military think rationally after all.

[grumbler]

Well, it's reassuring that people in the military think rationally after all.

Not every one.  Every organization has its Siegebreakers.

[garbon]

Agreed.  He only draws 1 card, not 5, if he starts in sickbay.  We need those cards.

We need cards for us, not against us.

[Martinus]

Madame President, my prototype Cylon detector is at your disposal if you believe anyone in the fleet's command is a traitor.

[grumbler]

We need cards for us, not against us.

True, but, while I don't agree with some of the choices made, I don't see any evidence that the Admiral is a Cylon.  If you felt strongly about it, you should have pushed to make the skill check when the terrorism investigations were going on.

[Martinus]

Well, I can see the point being about not trusting anyone, but oneself, to check this.

[grumbler]

Well, I can see the point being about not trusting anyone, but oneself, to check this.

Of course you can see the point, because you get the look.

It does the rest of us no good at all.

I think the rest of us would view your use of the ability at this time to be a very suspicious act.  There may come a time when this would be useful to the fleet, but that time is certainly not now.
