:smith: I don't think that was the right call. Then again I'm not sure if there was a right call.

I can do very little. I can XO, I can hit the research lab, or I can dig for something useful in the Quorum deck.

Well, 2 of the 17 quorum cards are +1 food, so that could be helpful, but I think those are the only useful quorum cards right now. XOing me right now wouldn't be helpful at all unless you want me moving around in space.

Ah, I would have to discard a skill card to do the quorum thing. Is that worth it or should I just draw a card?

Maybe I'll just draw a card.

Chief gets an ENG.

PresiChief Tyrol spends some time moving to and fro in the fleet to try and relieve the worries of his frightened people. However, one day his personal shuttle is hit by a lucky Raider shot. Badly damaged, the shuttle goes in for an emergency landing into Galactica's hangar bay...

Crisis!

Crash Landing - 6 TAC PIL:

Pass: No Effect;
Fail: The Admiral may spend 1 Fuel. If he does not, -1 Morale, and the Current Player is sent to "Sickbay."

Activate Heavy Raiders (no Jump).

Everyone, play in or pass.

I dunno about destiny but I'm guessing it's going against this. Failing this wouldn't be the worst thing ever because I'm guessing the game will be over before we get back around to Chief.

Thanks to Starbuck's masterful piloting, the President's ship is able to land safely.

I can't decide who I should XO because either of you drawing cards right now could make or break us over the next few turns. But sometimes you have to roll the hard six!

I suggest that you hit up the research lab instead of getting Quorum cards.

By CO, Chief activates the Research Lab twice and draws 1 TAC and 1 ENG.

As PresiChief Tyrol spends time doing sweet, sweet science, he is informed by an aide that elections are coming up soon. Tyrol was never actually democratically elected to the post and some in the fleet are clamouring for the reinstatement of Tom Zarek as President. It seems although the deck Chief turned politician will have to spend time trying to sway the fickle electorate...

Crisis!

Elections Loom - 8(5) POL LEA:

Pass: No Effect;
5+: -1 Morale;
Fail: -1 Morale, and the President discards 4 Skill Cards.

+1 Jump Prep

Destiny deck is rebuilt, and the LEA and ENG decks are reshuffled.

As a man more skilled for blue collar work, Tyrol is not an experienced politician and spends more time working on mechanical projects and keeping Galactica's knuckle draggers in line, rather than campaigning. His supporters aren't happy...

Turn 9.2: Adama (Klades) is the Current Player.

Adama (Klades) draws 1 PIL and 1 ENG by CO.

If I understand game mechanics, we should fail this? There is no functional difference between 3 and 2 population that deserves dumping 17 points in a test.

Watch as we lose because a stray shot kills 1 food.
