John Dough, if you're still around might as well preload landing and hitting the button on your turn

Sent a second Crisis to Roslin to see if she wants to swap, but frankly I doubt it. I apologize to everyone, I have been awful with remembering Roslin/Baltar and statics in general for these games.

We've got plenty of fuel, just keep it, do the roll and I punch the button.

Yeah we'll keep this one since it has a "don't do a skill check with all that free-flowing TRE" option. ##keep scouting for fuel, take the OR, roll the dice I believe with this moving the Jump marker to -3 that will be game.

Roslin says let's scout! 1d8=7! No loss! Raiders activate, and the Raiders in ALPHA move to FOXTROT! The fleet gains 1 Jump Prep! RISK 3 SPACE REACHED! By preload, Sam discards a TRE card to land and hits the FTL button, playing a Stratplan for good measure! 1d8+2=5+2=7! SAFE JUMP! The fleet jumps away, reaching Kobol at last!  HUMAN VICTORY! Good game, folks! Postgame thoughts coming shortly, but thank you all (as always) for playing, and I hope you had a good time! Podima fucked around with this message at 01:04 on Mar 14, 2016 |

So, I think this game (And the other one but it's not over yet) go a long way towards proving that Sam is a great character. Being able to guarantee jumps at -3 is a big deal, especially twice like in this game! I think both the cylons hurt themselves a little by playing undercover longer than perhaps they should have, but it's a judgment call. I choose to assume their plays during the final round were mostly out of a sense of futility, at the very least? Oh, and that Caprica use on Improviser's part DID have Legendary Discovery as the other option. It was sad.

Never seen so many +1 Jump Preps. I think the humans only played into one crisis the whole game with NO JUMP PREP.

I ended up burying one with my recon post-sleeper to try and help maintain my cover, since that would have been a dead giveaway. Again, my fault for trying to play for the long-term backstab instead of just flipping instantly.

Improviser, I'm still confused as to why you activated Heavies at the end there?

He was probably hoping for a string of Heavy activation Crises, or was just resigned (i've been in that position a lot for sure). It definitely shows how random bullshit Crisis cards one way or the other will totally determine the flow of the game. If Roslin had actually gotten all her Visions (I believe I missed two due to DEFCON and the last one was a non-issue) it might have been an even bigger roll.

The best BSG games are the ones that lean towards a cylon victory, because they force some serious thinking from the human team while not putting a victory for either team completely outside the realm of possibility. When team human has the clear upper hand all game, well, let's just say there's a reason Cruise Ship Galactica is a phrase.

Yeah, team human's early jumps and the Crisis deck brought this game home for them.

So when did the cylons come in? Just going from memory it didn't seem like we had one pre-sleeper. Also Fits drawing 2 PIL was a dead giveaway.

This is what I meant about deep cover - sometimes playing too pro-human in the early game can lead to a strong human lead that you can't counteract in the endgame.

Thanks for hosting, Podima! I like Anders a lot as a character. After the first round he has literally no downside, and his static allowing card swapping means you can catch up fairly quickly anyway. OPG can ensure either a safe jump or guaranteed fuel gain, both of which are great options if you need them.

Improviser posted:Never seen so many +1 Jump Preps. I think the humans only played into one crisis the whole game with NO JUMP PREP. I did go back and look at this--there were three no-prep crises (other than CACs), but they were all pre-sleeper. (I suspect Boomer did try to keep a no-prep crisis when revealing, but Anders scouted it away.) Combined with all the -3 jumps, I'm not sure what you could have done differently. Also, those factors combined may be why Roslin only managed to use (play into skill checks, play for effects, or discard for intership movement) 11 skill cards all game.

I have to say I'm a little disappointed that in a game with Boomer and Baltar there weren't more wild accusations flying around. Or any, really.

Yeah, some groups/games are just more disposed towards the scumhunting than others. For an example on the other end of the spectrum, you should REALLY read this game: [BSG] Beer Is A Cylon's Greatest Ally

I did manage to catch Improviser, but nobody else believed me (except Max) or acted on it since I apparently didn't understand the semantic intricacies of what "XO'ing forward" entailed. And then I turned at Sleeper and played a whole round undercover instead of revealing.
