    Five 3 player games: Cylons: 4 Humans: 1

    But one cylon victory was caused by our drunken human Admiral Tigh:

    On a real important check he throw in his best cards... 

    ...unfortunately the wrong colours!!!

    In his panic he claimed the president title from the cylon player, wich was Laura Roslin, but could not persuade Starbuck, that he was not a cylon.

    So he marches directly in the brig. Starbuck became the admiral title.

    A few turns later he managed to get out of the brig after supporting another important check, but it was too late.

    The skinjob aktivated the FTL-Control too early and mankind get rid of their last three human recources.

     

    What can we learn from this: Don't drink and command a battlestar!

    PS: sorry - no palmtrees to shoot down with machingguns in ToI. Though it could be good to know what effect an Mg42 would have on a palmtree.

     

    No palm trees at the "OSTFRONT".

     

    ...or at omaha beach. Muhahahaha!

    Apollos special ability allows him to enter a Viper when ever  it is placed on the game board from the reserves (Apollo has to be on galactica).

    When entering the viper he has got one action for free (Nuke, attack, CAG action, play a card, whatever...).

    Shure you have to solve the three steps of a cylon attack. But there is no rule, that you have to solve them before something else happens (for example a special ability).

    The rules on the cards (and the character sheets) have always priority. So Apollo is able to intercept that cylon attack before the special rule on the Crisis card (or super crisis card!) takes place.

     

    Besieged:

    On my Besieged crisis card, there is only one heavy raider. You are talking about the four  "normal cylon figthers". 

    There ist a piloting card to attack four times. So it is possible to kill the four Figthers before they are activated.

     

    I agree with this  33 minutes scenario.

    After step 2 (set up and apollos action) comes step 3. The base  star is already nuked.

    You have to shuffle the card back into the crisis cards staple by the next jump (if there is no second base star you can destroy - or a civilian ship is destroyed afer step 3)

    I prefer the eastern front scenario.

    We need russian tanks for real panzer combat.

    Think we don't need more weather rules then in the normandy expansion, just a few more cards for snow strom and stuff like that.

    Snow covered hexes with higer movement costs for infantry and trucks will be fine.

    The rivers could be deep frozen (passable for trucks) or not frozen for example.

    For new units, more than anything I want to see an Operation Barbarossa expansion. Units, in particular I'd like to see: T34/76, T34/85, KV-1, as well as some early war German units like the Panzer II and Panzer 38(t).

     

    That's it.

    Don't complicate the rules.

    Give us russian tanks - snow covered game boards and cities.

     

     

    By the way... what kind of amoured carriers did the russians use?

    Guess what's my favorite race...

    The action card I'm most afraid of is the "Local unrest card".

    If you concentrate on an offensive or establish your "front line" you often don't care about docks on none home systems... and the came the local unrest.

    So I fortify my key-planets step by step with ground forces without a transfer action.

    Unfortunately at the beginning of a new game - we draw the races by random so I can't lead the Federation of Sol to a glourious victory every game.

    (...or be wiped out by trying it. LOL).

     

    I like the XXCHA too. It's the perfect race for a noble player.

    What can be more glourious then unite the galaxy by diplomacy?
