Battlestar Galactica- Crisis! Nexus to contribute

That is a miss, so it is now CDB's turn.

[ChannelDelibird]

Gamma, I suspect you're in the best position for an XO. It would be nice to have a riposte at the basestar but also if we could get a scout away in the hopes of getting some jump prep. Are you in a position to do that? I will probably still XO you anyway but I feel like I should check what you're going to be doing first.

Anyone have any brighter ideas?

[Save The Dragons]

I was going to say XO Poro to guard the civies but I don't think there's a way for them to attack them before his turn and I think your idea is much better.

inb4 cylon reveal on XO, (although I suppose it's a bit early).

[ChannelDelibird]

I'm just going to do it anyway. Even if no scout, two shots at the basestar sounds pretty great.

Move to Command.

Play

2-Executive Order

on Gamma.

[Gammagooey]

yeah i do have a launch scout, firing at the basestar and using it. I'm assuming I should be looking at the crisis deck unless I'm misunderstanding you?

Firing at the basestar (5+ is success)

Original Roll String: 1d8

1 8-Sided Dice: (3) = 3

Launch Scout 2 strength (3+ is success, otherwise lose a raptor)

Original Roll String: 1d8

1 8-Sided Dice: (7) = 7

[Gammagooey]

its possible that i'm bad at shooting things.

[Sudo_Nym]

Top Crisis sent to Gamma.

[Gammagooey]

It's not GOOD but it has jump prep on it so eh?

Keep on top

Food Shortage
President Chooses:
-2 Food
OR
-1 Food. The President discards 2 Skill Cards, then the current player discards 3 Skill Cards.
Activate Raiders
Jump Prep

So Nexus to choose.

[Nexus]

Gamma, how you looking for skill cards? I'm happy to discard 2 to save 1 food.

[Gammagooey]

mine are pretty mediocre but i think cdb is still the actuve player here

[Sudo_Nym]

CDB is indeed the active player.

[ChannelDelibird]

I can live with losing my cards.

[Nexus]

Oh derp.

[Sudo_Nym]

Is there a decision?

[Sudo_Nym]

As a note, my computer is down. Not sure when I'll be back online.

[Nexus]

Choose bottom option

Discard Consolidate Power - Action: Draw 2 Skill Cards of any type(s). They may come from outside your skill set. Strength 2
Declare Emergency - Play after strength is totaled in a skill check to reduce its difficulty by 2. A limit of 1 "Declare Emergency" card may be used per skill check. Strength 3

[ChannelDelibird]

Discard:

2-Executive Order

1-Launch Scout

1-Launch Scout

[Sudo_Nym]

At long last, the mod is back online, so let's go!

Activate Raiders moves the Raiders at 11 to 1, and Jump prep increases to stage 1 (no jump possible).

Sending hand to STD>

[Save The Dragons]

I'm likely going to use a Consolidate Power to draw some blue cards.

I have an XO (so woo me with your plans if you want it) and a Launch Scout as well, but I'm leaning towards the CP.

[Porochaz]

You might want me to move round, but there might be better things to do.

[Save The Dragons]

Even if my crisis moves the raiders you can just move to protect the civvies on your turn so unless you have a really good card from your hand you want to play I think I'm probably just going to get cards.

[ChannelDelibird]

CP seems reasonable, unless you want to XO the president for Quorum cards.

[Save The Dragons]

Ooh that's a good point...Nexus do you want to burn two skill cards to draw 4 quorum cards / draw 3 quorum cards play one / draw 2 quorum cards play 2?

[Save The Dragons]

Also let me know if in the future you'd rather I discuss my turn or just do something to make the game go faster.
