It also just came to my attention that he has claimed to hold a food, which actually I'm fairly certain I can disprove. I feel there is a preponderance of circumstantial evidence here to convict.

OK, so everyone hates me. Nice.

By way of explanation. The medicine crisis was a pure fuckup on the scale of GTR saying he had stuff for the objective. I thought the current crisis was food, and put the medicine one next cause everyone and his dog was at the hospital. And I was honest with my crisis comments.

As for weapons, I don't get the hate? The sniper rifle doesn't require actions and offsets David's lovely zombie killing powers, and we need to equip weapons to everyone. David seemed like the obvious beneficiary.

Contrary to GTR's assertion, I have a food and I'm happy to pass it off to prove my bona fides. What else can I do to prove I'm innocent? I've made no noise, I've killed zombies, I've not hidden any of my cards from anyone.

I'm just making dinner so will come back to GTR's actions later, but in the meantime a vote to exile has been initiated.

All players must vote:

1: Exile tarbrush or
2: Don't exile tarbrush

Please send me your votes via PM.

Max Peck - is there any way I can get a heal for Gabriel at the Gas Station? I know going there is risky, but I don't think there's any other way to save him otherwise, and we can't take too many morale hits. I can give you stuff or keep an eye out for items if you need anything, and I promise to search for medicine and heal her if she gets frostbite on the trip. I'll have considerable searching power now that I have three people, and might turn up more.

This crisis is incredibly brutal. I can't imagine it being worse than the tools crisis that got shuffled down, and even if it were equally bad, we should have a bunch of starting tools at the ready.

If Tarbrush gets exiled and IS the traitor, those exiled survivors are going to be hitting us at the remote locations. That means noise, zombies being attracted, everything. We need to start thinking about our strategy with filling important buildings so exiled people can't get in, and the zombie management that will come from that. Minimal noise, lots of barricades, etc.

I definitely want to do something along the lines of healing Gabriel, although I haven't figured out exactly how to accomplish things yet.

Vague thoughts:
free - barricade entrance 2
2 - search the school and make all the noise, hoping for medicine and something else useful
move Arthur elsewhere?
6 - search the hospital, make no noise, just hope to get lucky on meds for the crisis or fuel for a safe trip to the gas station
move Olivia to gas station, heal Gabriel
1 - barricade gas station

That leaves me with a 1 (a 2 with Brian's ability). Arthur could search again (at his new location if he doesn't go back to the colony), a food from the supply could turn that into a 3 for Olivia's search (and the 6 can then be an attack if needed). Some of it's going to depend on the first search, I guess.

Thought: if tar is the traitor, we should probably just tank this crisis. It'll hurt, but we don't have the time to both take care of it and brace for impact.

Maybe get some prep for the tool crisis, too.

Considering every survivor currently out is wounded at least once, we have 5/6 of the top influence survivors out already (the soldier, Thomas Heart, is 60), and likely the traitor is the only one with meds?

5. Out of 4.

I'm just saying there's very little chance of someone pulling a sufficiently high-influence survivor from the deck (they'd be uninjured and not die from frostbite from failing the crisis).

quote:

Discussions are had and fingers pointed. Voices are raised, and tensions stretch to breaking point as you try and decide who afflicted the colony with the worst case of food poisoning you've ever seen. In the end, the decision is nearly unanimous. Talia has to go! Her strange murmured warnings and collection of crystals convince you that something is not quite right about that woman, and with little further ado you eject her from the colony. Something in the look she gives you as she leaves tells you that you've made the right decision - a cold determined glare that makes you dread the next time you run into her.

Although David didn't seem to be involved, you kick him out as well since he'd been hanging around Talia. I guess you could say he'd been.... tarred with the same brush....

GTR spends his lowest dice to attract zombies to the lighthouse. 1 zombie removed from each location

Can you please confirm your other actions GTR since there've been a few changes since you made them with tarbrush getting exiled and receiving 2 additional food cards from Max.

I have been rolling like poo poo on my dice, otherwise I'd just offer to clear the zombies and we can full tilt search the hospital again and hope for the best. Tar can't add to any more crisis anything, and I have one medicine from my idiocy - that - worked - out last round, so we need four more.

I guess our best bet is to search places, and then all clear back to the colony so we don't attract any more zeds?

You only need 4 medicine for the crisis now (or 6 to gain a morale) since tarbrush has been exiled.

That was kinda unfortunate for you tarbrush that only 3 people ended up contributing to the crisis - makes it kinda hard to hide :)

I have a medicine card I can add that I picked up on a preset search instruction.

We also need to plan after we know where Talia is going. She's already wounded, and her special ability can tank us... if you guys catch my drift.

Jon to Gas Station
Copy Fireman Power

Jon Searches (4) NO NOISE
Andrew Builds 2 Barricades (1)

Wait for additional information


I want to move Jon to the gas station for my own important purposes, if you guys think you can handle the crisis this turn. The Police Station, where I had originally intended to move him, just isn't safe, but we need weapons among other things and fuel can help us move without taking anymore damage. Filling up all available slots also prevents the traitor from attracting zombies or making a place go crazy with noise.

Gabriel is going to die this round if he's not healed, and there's only one spot left. But I guess Tarbrush has the same strategy so it probably doesn't matter. :sigh:

Correction, Gabriel Diaz is the one going to die if not healed by the doctor. Also, now is NOT the time for secret agendas, we have to not lose next turn, then worry about actually pulling out of this nosedive of a situation.

Talia moves to the Gas Station, condemning Gabriel to a slow death from frostbite

GTR to revise actions as Gas Station is now full of people!

tarbrush, you do not get a new objective. One of the changes I'm trying out - the new objectives you get from being exiled seemed to be one of the most unbalanced parts of the game since they could range in difficulty to trivially easy (or even already achieved) through to literally impossible. So your objective is as it was before, only you will have to find other ways to lower morale now than tanking crises.
