Reality is starting to sink in. Their permanent pilgrimage and forced asceticism are starting to work their way around the civilians.
They respond predictably.
Well that’s good, because it is happening no matter what. @jeffreyb you get to have all the fun right now.
Ugh. Would have been good to have two more morale now wouldn’t it. I will wait for some input.
I’m leaning morale again but it’s a slippery slope
Maybe jumping and repairing would’ve been better, but who knew?
I think food and morale too… but looking at the card list, maybe getting fuel is not that impossible. I can’t pick, that’s why I promoted you as former president.
While looking at the Quorum cards, I noticed there’s not a lot that’s useful without picking fights or allies, and most of the rest is to combat shortfalls. I can see why @rowe33 might not play what he drew, but it’s probably enough cards for now.
At the time, I tended to agree with the decision to lose the morale as we’re not very good at repairing Galactica. On the other hand, the Pegasus makes an excellent damage soak so maybe that’s the wrong way of thinking.
As far as shooting vs. escorting on my turn goes, once we’ve jumped there may well be an opportunity to escort the civilian to safety anyway but there won’t be chance to shoot the raiders. I was still expecting two hits out of that though. I need better wingmen.
For this choice, I’m also leaning food & morale. @Perky_Goth: did that scout give you a better idea of whether fuel is likely to run short?
I don’t see how @rowe33 thought he could just casually dump 2 morale. I mean, I don’t love the idea that I could have ended up in sick bay there, but 2 morale for 2 damage?
I think we should dump the morale here. As much as it sucks, we’re down 2 pop already and fuel is always brutal to dump early, maybe we’ll luck into some and can dump it more safely later.
It was a complaint about RNG, not you, although I can’t complain with those odds either.
My first criteria for the destination was fuel, it’s not a bad card.
Hmm, should we aim the basestar shot at Galactica here, to avoid the risk of hitting Jürgen?
Very well, you pass out pints of ice cream and put on Life is Beautiful and everyone has a good cry to get it out of their system.
Then the Basestar starts putting holes in things (roll 8)
@rowe33 choose Pegasus or Galactica for the hit.
@jeffreyb destinations incoming
Nah, I should risk it, there’s plenty of time to get me out. Pegasus exists to get hit.
Rho knew the basestar was going to hit a full minute before Craig posted it. CLEAR TOASTER! ;)
I don’t know if it prevents the jump, but it’s not a bad idea right now if we can repair the damage quickly.
I thought we aimed the shots before determining whether they hit. :p
Could those two hits have gone to Pegasus above? If so, my bad, I thought it specifically stated Galactica so I had no choice. Morale can be saved though.
There are a limited number of things that have to go on Galactica. Loyalty cards and Super Crisis are among them.
Otherwise Crisis cards can hit either at current player discretion.
Apparantly someone thought this was a good enough destination (eyes @Perky_Goth)
Maybe i’m being too harsh, it’s an allright destination,
Fuel < Distance. Seems good to me.
yeah, just was hoping for a 3 distance ofcourse
Hopefully Lantz won’t get hit, better duck!
