That seems like a very large number.

I dunno, maybe there's ones that are like 17 POL or whatever, I'm still absorbing the rules here.





The range on normal crises is 6 to 17.

But yeah, 9 is rather middle of the road for Base game, I think. It's just a question if we have enough cards this early on!

Destiny is a harsh mistress.

I'd recommend using Communications to move those civvies out of harm's way, those Raiders are getting awfully close.

Well drat.

Sounds good. That's what I was considering, too, so I'll go ahead and do that.

Move to Communications and move the civ ships to 5.

I'm not sure how I feel about it! I wouldn't be useful until it's my turn again is the only issue I'm having, but if you guys feel like you can cover stuff on your own then I'm fine with failing it.

Also, one of those ships has a lot of resources, so keep 'em safe.

Well, your cards are always useful for Skil Checks if they're positive, and if you have Repairs they can be useful to fix things via you getting XOed if they get broken.

Hypothetically speaking, if you were going to play cards into the check (to save the rest of your hand and Morale), would you need much help from the rest of us?

I should've thought about that. :v:

I can play 3 medium cards, but I would need a little bit of help just in case destiny is rude again. I say let's go for it.

Since you're going to lose your hand if it fails anyway, you have nothing to lose in playing positive into the check.

While you aren't allowed to claim specifically what you play into a skill check, you're allowed to (but certainly not required to!) say whether you played a lot or a little into the check. See the last page of the Official FAQ for more details.

Hopefully we'll be jumping soon enough, but I guess I should still be the frakking pilot so let's take some preventative measures.

##move to Hangar Deck
##fly me to the moon (or maybe just sector 5)


I know I have a theoretical extra action, but I'd rather just hang out with those civvies.

Lemme check out that crisis card!
