The Sherman “Doc” Cottle Character Sheet

another human player and draw 2 Skill Cards from his Skill

Yeah let's fix some of our hand issues for people that have been doing good things lately. Chief definitely falls into that category, but why POL?

Stelas
Sep 6, 2010

At a guess it's generally useful for checks and I'm probably going to draw an XO next turn I get so it's not like I need LEA now. I don't really mind what I get, though.

Stelas

I feel like lea would be a safer choice to ensure you get that XO. The only reason I realistically see for POL is that our President is almost certainly doing the toasty thing and I can't recall at a glance who else draws decent pol other than me. Weird suggestion if it was sincere and not max peck dry wit.

Also, since I'm not actually more likely to be a Cylon yet, you all should totally get the only full-time pilot out of the Brig ASAP :v:

Some Numbers posted:

Brig (Hazardous)
You may not move, draw Crisis Cards, or add more than 1 card to skill checks.
Action: Pass a 7 POL/TAC skill check to move to any location on Galactica.

I had thought my motive was rather obvious. There's no point in asking for cards for myself, because I strongly suspect I won't get to attempt a Brig check until my turn, I'll draw TAC anyway, and I can only play one card into my own Brig check. Chief is the eligible player whom I trust the most, and he doesn't draw TAC.

Also, I'm not sure I see the point in fishing for XOs right this moment when people are going to be a little shy about XOing other people for a bit. The dynamics aren't quite the same with DSC, but we're still immediately post-sleeper.

First, you can't be the CAG, you're in prison. Second, fits made his choice yesterday, I was just super busy and have a raging headache.

Third, here's your update.

pre:
Event Horizon
1. Activate Raiders
2. 1 Basestar in each of Sectors 2 and 4; 2 Raiders in each of Sectors 1 and 4 and 1 Viper in each of Sectors 1, 5, 6
3. Gravity Well: Keep this card in play until the fleet jumps. No player can activate a viper unless he first discards a Skill Card.

Did my assault raptor vanish into the ether when I was brigged? Phone posting so I can't examine board images easily.

Regardless, though, that's an additional point

If the AR is still around, and it should be, we have 2 pilots in the brig and they don't both really need to be in space, especially Helo, since he does good things with his reroll from other locations.

counterpoint: theres plenty of time to deal with the basestars on a pretty clear board and not much flying for pilots to do in event horizon, and the other one is worse. and the assault raptor is still there hanging out to pilot

Counter-counterpoint: You picked a 2-basestar CAC on a clear board. At a time when Pegasus CIC is blowed up. And you have two titles - though admittedly you didn't engineer that one overtly.

I mean slapfights over CAC choices always come down to "the other one was worse I swear!!!" but Event Horizon is a really hard sell for that particular excuse.

## Play Mutiny: Betrayal of Trust - Action: Draw 2 Treachery Cards. Then, look at the top card of the Destination Deck and place it on the top or bottom of the deck. Finally, discard this card.
## Reveal: Action: Reveal this card. If you're not in the Brig, you may move a player to Sickbay. That player discards 5 Skill Cards.
