I assume it would have to be one of us three sent to the brig?

Ranmilia · « **Reply #176 on:** February 08, 2013, 08:16:38 PM »

If you fail the check, yes, you must choose a player, and it can't be a revealed cylon.

Yakumo · « **Reply #177 on:** February 08, 2013, 09:15:26 PM »

Alex is correct, yes. The text doesn't say 'may', so you have to send someone to the brig. Revealed Cylons are not a valid target.

Draw Engineering, Politics, activate Caprica for normal crises.

Yakumo · « **Reply #184 on:** February 11, 2013, 03:44:06 PM »

Since everyone knows who the Cylons are and so nobody is going to get suspicion from having to change the number of cards they play, for the rest of this game I'm going to reset skill checks if anyone plays a card that should have been played before the check(Scientific Research, Investigative Committee). In the case of Investigative Committee, in the interest of fairness I am going to enforce turn order on a check that card is played for. I still highly recommend preloading these cards so the game doesn't get slowed down, however!

Stelas · « **Reply #185 on:** February 11, 2013, 09:03:58 PM »

Play Bomb Threat, choose the check..

Current Player Chooses:

Politics/Leadership/Tactics check, Target=13

Pass: No Effect

Fail: -1 Morale and draw a civilian ship and destroy it

OR

Roll a die. If 4 or less, trigger the "Fail" effect of this card.

##Questioning Yakko

Yakumo · « **Reply #188 on:** February 12, 2013, 05:35:56 AM »

AndrewRogue plays Politics-3 Investigative Committee. The skill check is reset, and turn order will be enforced.

AndrewRogue also plays Engineering-3 Scientific Research. All Engineering cards count positive for this check.

Two cards are played from the Destiny Deck face up into the skill check.

Leadership-1 Executive Order
Engineering-3 Scientific Research

Play order for this check is Lady Door -> Sir Alex -> AndrewRogue -> Nitori -> Stelas. If you absolutely must play out of order, PM me with your cards and I'll play them for you, assuming I see it's your turn before you do.

Lady Door · « **Reply #189 on:** February 13, 2013, 03:16:21 AM »

##Play 1 card

Dammit, guys. At least the Destiny Deck is playing to our success, but I'm not a whole lot more help here.

Yakumo · « **Reply #190 on:** February 13, 2013, 01:22:15 PM »

That card is Leadership-2 Executive Order.

Remember, with Investigative Committee in play, all cards go in face-up.

Ranmilia · « **Reply #191 on:** February 13, 2013, 08:09:09 PM »

Eeeeh. ##Play Piloting 2 - Evasive Maneuver

Lady Door · « **Reply #192 on:** February 14, 2013, 01:03:42 AM »

Sorry - had to confirm the cards I had with Yakko prior to playing. Yes, it was Leadership-2 Executive Order.

Which has neatly been nullified by Alex's play. Whee.

AndrewRogue · « **Reply #193 on:** February 14, 2013, 03:04:46 PM »

Since chat has exploded at the moment. How are your capabilities for helping on this one, Nitori?

Nitori · « **Reply #194 on:** February 14, 2013, 05:46:14 PM »

I can help a lot actually

AndrewRogue · « **Reply #195 on:** February 14, 2013, 07:06:18 PM »

##Play: 2-Engineering, 3-Declare Emergency

Might as well make sure we're solid.

Nitori · « **Reply #196 on:** February 14, 2013, 08:38:06 PM »

Play 5-Investigative Committee, 1-Consolidate Power, 1-Repair

Ranmilia · « **Reply #197 on:** February 15, 2013, 07:14:54 PM »

That comes out to a 16 before Stelas, yes?

Stelas · « **Reply #198 on:** February 18, 2013, 01:22:42 PM »

Ugh crap, sorry, I expected to have an internet connection while I went to visit the south island of NZ. Turns out that farms as far as the eye can see don't have much in the way of decent internet.

Play Piloting 5 - Maximum Firepower.

Yakumo · « **Reply #199 on:** February 18, 2013, 08:26:23 PM »

Turn 23 - Current Board

An anonymous bomb threat was delivered to the fleet. In the middle of all the other issues plaguing them, nobody paid much mind to what was clearly just some madman's prank. Unfortunately for them, it was much more than that.
