Thanks EL :)

This was a very nicely run game.

I am going to say it one more time though: By god Apollo is OP if you exploit his ability to the hilt ;-)

I had two more unrevealed personal goals: To have 10 raiders on the game board, and (as I'm sure everyone has guessed by now) to destroy / damage 6 vipers.
I achieved the latter, but only when it no longer mattered. Though it did drive fuel down to 1 in the end :p
The former, I simply decided not to bother about. Not achieving it costs pop, and we had plenty of that.
Plus, allowing 10 raiders on the board is just too damn dangerous to allow it to happen. That 1 pop isn't worth the risk they pose.

Finally, I had a final five card - whoever examined it would be executed. Ouch.
Still no idea what would have happened if I had been executed and forced to reveal it that way :p

Without Apollo, I doubt the humans would have won this game. Apollo did so much, that it was basically a free action on every human turn. Well it might not quite be that high, it certainly was up there.

I personally think that J-L should have revealed soon after he got the cylon card( Like I did last game ) and build up the Cylon Fleet. Recall how large those numbers got to be? Because I was sitting there places raiders and fudging the tracks. Still, I am interested to see what happens next game...
 
Cylon president is good fun if I was less distracted and the cards/crisis aligned better. :(


If no one else does I can gm a 5 person game with new caprica since I just find it good clean fun to watch civvies be intentionally blown up sometimes.

Any objections to a Cylon Leader in that game? I been wanting to play one for a while. More so I want to see how they work with the Cylon Fleet if you do that as well.

You need deckmanger? Or do you have a copy sitting around?

The other question, is can I be a Cylon Leader, or do I need to figure out who I am going to play as?

For the Cylon leader, I'd like to hear from the other players who wish to play, as I don't really care either way.

I know people have had issues with it in the past, so if the other players are fine, I'll go with it.

As for the game, I'll put up the post tomorrow in the afternoon. Do we want to play with personal goal cards again?

Let him be a cylon leader, I want to be tigh so I can scream and throw empty beer bottles at EL.


No personal goals, new caprica will be wacky enough. The personal goals will either be crazy easy or crazy hard.

Alright, it'll be a pretty basic NC, Cylon fleet, Cylon leader game.

I'll tailor the leader goals a bit, depending on if we get 5 or 6 players.

Hm, how about a game with 5-6 cylon leaders and NO regular humans? That has to be enough random chaos to satisfy absolutely everyone. :D
 
I can play in the next game if there's room. As to the setup, it isn't very important to me, I'll play any setup. Personally, I don't really like Cylon leaders as the most fun part of the game is trying to figure out who the Cylons are.
 
I'll pass on the next game. Have other things on my mind at the moment.

Same here. Hence why I propose to put in 6 of them - to bring some paranoia regarding agenda's into it.
