Max Peck posted:

Agatha Heterodyne (2 LEA, 3 ENG) Setup: Research Lab
Titles as "Chief" Galen Tyrol
Spark: You may increase the result of die rolls pertaining to your current location by 1. If you are in the "Hangar Deck", you may increase the result of attack rolls by piloted vipers by 1.
Command Voice: Action: Once per game, you may move each Cylon ship on the main board to an adjacent space area and each Centurion either forward or backward one step on the Boarding Party track.
Locket: You cannot use an action printed on a "You Are a Cylon" Loyalty Card unless you are in "Sickbay" or the "Brig". Being in "Sickbay" counts as being in the "Brig" for the purpose of such actions.

This drawback needs tweaking, because it doesn't hurt a human at all, and the only pro-Cylon thing she can do is her OPG, so having a purely anti-Cylon drawback is bad.

Lee Everett (1 POL, 1 LEA, 1 TAC, 2 POL/LEA/TAC/PIL/ENG/TRE) Setup: Command
Titles as Original Zarek
The Guy With All the Answers: Your skill set includes every skill.
Whatever It Takes: Action: Once per game, discard your hand to gain 1 Population.
The Illusion of Choice: After you make a choice on a crisis card, ignore that choice and take the top option instead.

I'm worried the drawback may be a little harsh. Thoughts?

Would tweak this OPG to 'Gain or Lose 1 pop'

Bender Bending Rodriguez 1 ENG 1 LEA 1 TAC (Support) Setup: Research Lab
Titles as Cottle
I Love Stealing: After your Draw Cards step, randomly draw a total of two additional cards from the hands of any Human Players of your choice.
I Love Taking Things: Movement: Once per game, take all cards from the Destiny Deck and add them to your hand.
Lazy: You may not add more than two Skill Cards to any non-location based Skill Check.

Suggestions are welcome.

People have mentioned his static is incredibly anti-human, that should be tweaked.

The Stig (1 LEA, 2 TAC, 2 PIL) Setup: Hangar Deck
Titles as Hot Dog
Power Lap: Movement or Action: If piloting a viper, you may move to any space area. You may then attack 1 Cylon ship in your area (even if you didn't move).
Nitrous: Action: Once per game, if piloting a viper, you may move to any space area. Target that space area with an Exodus-style nuke (without discarding a nuke token) and add 2 to the roll. If your viper is not destroyed by the nuke, damage it.
Silent: If you would make a choice on a "Current Player Chooses" crisis card, instead the President chooses for you. (This doesn't carry a post restriction; assume Clarkson is narrating for you or something. You are, however, encouraged to post your driving music while out doing laps.)

Would Strat planning work with his OPG? If so, that's like hilarious as a Cylon reveal, but also perhaps too good since with that you're looking at a 5/8 chance to nuke every Civvy in whatever area.

Here's another one for the pool (I like doing this too much):

v1

Galadriel (2 POL, 2 LEA, 1 POL/LEA) Setup: Communications
Political Leader, Titles as Roslin

Mirror of Galadriel: At the beginning of your turn, look at the top three cards of the crisis deck and put them back on top in the same order.

The Light of E�rendil: Once per game, immediately after resolving a Crisis that does not have a �Prepare for Jump� icon and morale is at 5 or less, you may gain 2 morale.

Keeper of Nenya, the Ring of Water: When another player is executed, you are executed. If you are human, do not lose 1 morale.

At the moment, I think her OPG is way too human-friendly. Does someone have a good suggestion of how to keep the theme ("A light for you in the darkest of times") but also make it work for a Cylon?

Other thoughts?

Change her OPG to 'Gain 2 or Lose 1, problem solved'

Captain Bucky O' Hare (2 LEA, 1 TAC, 2 PIL) Setup: Launched in a Viper in Sector 5 or 6
Titles as Original Helo
Righteous Indignation: Once per turn, if a Viper or Assault Raptor you are piloting would be damaged or destroyed, it is instead moved to Sector 5 or 6.
Funky Fresh Rabbit: Once per game, discard a Skill Card to lower the difficulty of a Skill Check by the number printed.
Damaged Photon Accelerator: If you draw a Crisis that has a "Prepare for Jump" icon, you cannot play into the check.

This OPG is pretty weak - it's almost totally useless as a toaster, and as a human all it lets you do is turn 1 skill card to another color for one check. Compare to say, Dee, whose OPG is way more versatile in that regard.

I'd suggest either :

Once per game, discard a Skill Card to raise or lower the difficulty of a Skill Check by 5
Or 5 + Card Strength. Probably the latter.

King Phillip's OPG actually may need to be limited - if he saves up 10 cards, draws, then OPGs, Cylons can instantly win if Galactica has 1 point of damage on it.

Also, Some Numbers static is strong, but the counterpoint is that I completely lack an OPG :colbert:

Double scouting the DD is totally a dumb move. It would have been way better to hit up Tactical Plot or something, so we can start grinding the mission deck.

I know people hate throwing around XOs after sleeper, but I think I've proven I'm currently human, so if I can get an XO I can move more civvies off the board.

Also someone needs to start fixing Pegasus.

It is double secret and all that, so you could well be turning toaster right now.

That said, I support XOing here, it is worth the gamble.

Curse your sudden yet inevitable betrayal. Also I vote for the mutiny option, since that can put 1 mutiny in Cao Cao's hand and make brigging him easier.

I do lean towards airlocking. Of course, since it seems our President may well be a toaster since they just dropped us to 2 Food, things look somewhat bleak.

# ¿ Nov 19, 2014 15:53

Dexanth: Dec 4, 2003; The last thing an ice cream cone ever sees

I lean towards airlocking because, well, that'll disarm the toaster for a long while in a way brigging does not.
