Racetrack shoves Baltar into a shuttle and drags him off of Colonial One, right over to the shiny red button!

This is an interesting thing that doesn't often come up visibly in forum games, honestly. The tabletop timing rules (current player gets to choose who gets to play their card first) are kind of clunky for forum games (although still potentially necessary in some Reckless situations), especially when preloads are involved. (How do you deal with multiple "if no one else plays X, play mine" preloads, anyway?) In this particular case, though, I find it hard to care because everyone already knew that SN's is going to be used at some point for Armory shots anyway :v:
