"Sometimes you have to do things you hate, so you can survive to fight another day."

Welcome to Battlestar Galactica: The Board Game: Online!

This will be a 6 player No Sympathizer, Pegasus, Daybreak, tiny bits of Exodus, and DEFCON-ish Variant game to Kobol.

Rules, FAQ, and Errata can be found here.
General BSG discussion thread is here.

REQUIREMENTS:

You must have PMs enabled to play.
You are expected to be active and check in at least once per day.

THE ACTION QUEUE/24 HOUR RULE:
At the bottom of every mod post, there is an Action Queue that announces what we are waiting for to continue the game.
If you are at the top of the Action Queue, you have 24 hours to post or PM me to complete it. Once the 24 hours pass, the top of the Action Queue will be auto-resolved.
The time requirements will be relaxed on weekends and holidays.
If we have to repeatedly auto-resolve your choices, you will be replaced.
You may pre-load actions ahead of time (ex. ## If my Viper is attacked, play PIL-3 (Evasive Maneuvers)). This MUST be done via PM. Please be as specific as possible.

ANNOUNCING PLAYS/ACTIONS:
All game actions must be prefaced with two #s, and bolded (ex. ##Move to Communications). Please be specific and brief.
If you're playing a card, make sure to list the skill type, number and card name (ex. ##use LEA-1 (XO) on Helo).
All face-down cards, including Quorum Cards and Skill Cards will be delivered to the players via PM. Your cards will be auto-drawn for you at the beginning of your turn. Any player that has a choice in what to draw will need to announce what skill set they are drawing (ex. ##draw 1 Politics 1 Engineering.).
Pre-loading is a big part of keeping a forum game running smoothly. Players are encouraged to pre-load whenever possible, especially in cases of pre-skill check cards.

SKILL CHECKS:
Players must announce the number of cards they are playing in the thread, then PM me the specific cards they are playing. Skill checks will be resolved after all players have announced the number of cards in the thread and PM'ed their contribution, OR 24 hours have passed.
Skill checks will have 24 hour time limit. After 24 hours, the check will be resolved. This is not absolute but will be enforced at my discretion.
Turn order will NOT be enforced on Skill Checks. Turn order will be enforced upon request in the following circumstances: playing an Investigative Committee Card, activating the Admiral Quarters/Airlock, or any Skill Check that could end the game.
Face-up cards that effect skill checks (Investigative Committee, At Any Cost, etc.) should be played as soon as possible after the check is announced (or should be pre-loaded to me before the check happens). If one of these cards is played after other players have announced their contributions, they may change their contribution.

SECRECY
Players MUST read and abide by the Secrecy Clarifications in the official FAQ.
DON'T EDIT YOUR POSTS!
Players may ONLY use the words, "low" or "high" to describe their contributions to skill checks. That�s it. You can use "medium", but only when contributing multiple cards and only to describe the entire contribution.
No communication outside of this thread between players is allowed.
Players may not quote anything from PMs. This includes cards and messages from the mod.
Do NOT post pre-loads in the thread. These MUST be done via PM.

CYLON SHIP ACTIVATIONS
Cylon ship activations are done automatically.
Ships are activated starting in Sector Alpha and proceed clockwise around Galactica.

SOME lovely VARIANT OF VARIANT DEFCON VARIANT VERSION 3
Cylons Attack Cards are removed from the Crisis Deck and are placed in their own separate deck. This deck cannot be scout'ed, examined, or otherwise affected by cards and abilities.
The DEFCON Level is a number that can range between 1 (bad) and 100 (good). It starts the game at 7.
When a Crisis Card would be drawn, either during the Crisis Step or by activating the Caprica location, roll a d8. This roll cannot be modified, re-rolled, or otherwise affected by cards or abilities.
- On a roll greater than or equal to the current DEFCON Level, the top two CACs are drawn, either by the CAG during a human player's turn or by the cylon player activating Caprica, and they choose one to resolve. The other is buried. The DEFCON Level is then increased by 7.
- On a roll lower than the DEFCON Level, a regular Crisis Card is drawn and the DEFCON Level is reduced by 1.
When the fleet jumps, the DEFCON Level is decreased (bad for humans) if there are Cylon ships on the board.
- -3 for each undamaged Basestar
- -1 for each damaged Basestar.
- -1 for each Heavy Raider.
The DEFCON Level can be increased (good for humans) when a piloted Viper destroys Cylon ships.
- +1 for each Basestar destroyed.
- +1 for each Heavy Raider destroyed.
- +1 for every 3 Raiders destroyed (running total for each Pilot is kept through out the game).
The CAG Title is in play. The CAG chooses the CAC to play during a human player's turn. He also chooses which type of Viper to deploy according to any CAC setup.
There is NO escort action, but Civilian Ships are automatically removed when the fleet jumps.
Nukes use base game rules.
Scar is removed from the CAC Deck.
The fleet starts with 6 Regular Vipers, 4 Viper MarkkVIIs, 1 Assault Raptor, and 4 Regular Raptors.
Raiders have a component limit of 20 (instead of 16).
Pegasus can NOT be chosen for damage unless there is at least one human player on a Pegasus location.

HOUSE RULES
Trying out yet another new DEFCON variant. See above.
Various tweaks from the goonsensus hivemind and changes to the most problematic characters such as Cain, Cally, and Tory. All changes should be marked with an asterisks * below.
Using unofficial versions of Romo, Cottle, and Hotdog because their Daybreak versions sucked.
Some custom unofficial characters added for variety: Kendra, Billy, Racetrack, and Seelix.
Official No Sympathizer Variant: Starting Resources are 8 Fuel, 7 Food, 9 Morale, and 10 Population; Revealed Cylon players draw 3 Skill Cards on their turns (instead of 2).

To sign up, just post ## please recycle (toasters) Sign-ups will be open for 24-ish hours.
