The weapons malfunction reeks havoc with Galactica's systems, and for some reason red tape seems to be piling up at the worst of times, delaying and slowing the efforts at repairing them. Engineering teams do eventually get the upper hand, but not before the damage is done.

Result: 2 Vipers are damaged, which the current player traveurysm chooses to be the two unmanned vipers. Raiders are launched from the basestar, and the jump prep track is NOT advanced. The situation in space is decidedly not looking good.

##Stays in Administration
## Nominates Tom Zarek for President


Citizens, under the watch of our current leadership, the Cylons have been able to execute a successful attack on our valuable vipers. While I'm thankful that the vipers were unmanned, there is another matter we must address.

There are only two people in the game with access to the Politics cards used to negate the skill check. Baltar just drew two more of them on his previous turn, and played more cards than any other person. In case the accusation has not yet been made clear: I believe that our President, Gaius Baltar, is in fact a Cylon.

I would ask that those of you with the ability to help, vote to depose the current President, and instead allow me to work with you all to ensure our safe journey to Kobol.

I look forward to serving you all.

Elwin Ransom activates Administration! A election is in order!

This is a standard Skill Check though, if passed Tom Zarek will become President. If failed, Gaius Baltar will remain President. You decide by playing positive cards (POL/LEA) or negative cards (TAC/PIL/ENG).

Do not play cards yet though, I am still waiting on IC confirmation. Feel free to discuss though.

My friends, this is a tense time and we are all on edge. We do know that cylons take human form, and it is evident that one of them sabotaged our weaponry. Who was it? We don't know. I don't expect you to take me at my word when I claim innocence. I merely urge that we discuss this calmly and get to the bottom of it.

The weaponry seems to have been jammed as a result of political influence. This makes the known criminal Tom Zarek and I the most likely suspects. Either

A) I am a cylon, and Tom is heroically saving the fleet - bravo Tom.
B) Tom is a cylon, and I am our best hope of saving us from him.

What we lack at this point is evidence. The evidence we DO have actually points the finger at Tom. Consider the first skill check.

I played 2 cards.
Tom played 1.
There was 1 tactics card played to harm us.
I can't even draw tactics cards.
Tom can.

At this point, especially after Tom's aggressive attempt to depose me, I think we all ought to be suspicious of him. At the very least, I beg you, people of the colonies, not to depose me without at least a shred of compelling evidence.

I know I may not be the most popular person. Perhaps my heart is not always in the right place. But I do have a heart, giving to me by my biological mother. I don't wish to be killed by the cylons any more than you do.

I appreciate President Baltar's call for rational discussion. He is to be commended for facilitating such a civil discourse.

I find both his logic and conclusions sound. We all know that somebody with political influence is a Cylon; either the President, or myself.

I'm confused as to why he is now accusing me of playing a Tactics card. If anything this should be a reason to cast your vote FOR me, as tactics cards counted towards a successful outcome of the skill check.

I wish that I were allowed to reveal which cards were played by myself, but alas, I am not. I would like to reiterate the two points that seem to be most relevant here: President Baltar played 2 cards, more than any other player while having just received 2 additional political influence cards, adding to his potentially pre-existing 2 political influence cards.

Statistics are not in President Baltar's favor here. I urge you all to consider the facts, and choose your President accordingly.

It seems a tragic waste to exert efforts on a special election while cylon raiders bear down on us ...

I never liked the cut of Baltar's jib and now I know why. It is because he is a cylon. Let use review the facts:

To start:
ChaosSatella receives 1 Loyalty Card and 2 TAC, 2 PIL, 1 ENG.
traveurysm receives 2 Loyalty Cards, 2 POL, 1 LEA, and 1 Quorum Card.
Elwin Ransom receives 1 Loyalty Card and 2 POL, 1 LEA.
TheRambizzle receives 1 Loyalty Card and 1 TAC, 2 LEA.
Izendale receives 1 Loyalty Card and 2 PIL, 1 TAC.

In the first crisis the following cards were played:

Positive
Politics-3
Politics-2
Leadership-1
Leadership-2
Leadership-1
Leadership-1
Piloting-1
Piloting-2

Negative
Tactics-2

Baltar played 2 cards, neither of which were tactics. Zarek played 1 card which couldn't have been tactics either. So both did their human duty. This doesn't absolve either. Neither of them could have hurt our cause, so the cylon just played along to look like he was making a contribution.

In the second round, Baltar claimed he was helping a lot and contributed 2 cards while Zarek played only 1. We know we must have a cylon because there were more than 2 negative cards on the second play. We also know that Baltar is the most likely to be a cylon (see cut of jib and extra loyalty cards). Therefore we either have 2 cylons on board who each contributed negative cards, or Baltar is our cylon. Given the outcome of the first round, I think it is unlikely that we have 2 cylons. For there to be 2 cylons either Boomer or Starbuck would have had to have politics or leadership as Zarek played 1 card and there were four negative cards so the additional random cards could not have made up the difference.

Boomer started with 2 TAC, 2 PIL, 1 ENG.
Starbuck started with 2 PIL, 1 TAC.

Neither of them drew leadership or politics. This means that Boomer and Starbuck could not have contributed to our demise. The only way there could be 2 cylons is if Zarek and Baltar are both cylons. I will keep my eye on Zarek, never liked terrorists, but one thing is clear. Baltar must not be elected. If I could, I would vote against him, but I am too busy drinking. Vote against the cylons. Don't vote for Zarek. Vote against Baltar Frakin Cylonpants

Since this seems like a matter between Zarek and Baltar and I cannot determine who is the traitor, I abstain from voting. Let destiny decide who wins. There also seems to be a lot of cylons in this sector...

As the pilots and commanders scramble to deal with the pressing cylon raiders, Tom Zarek levied a heavy accusation against the current president. With the weight of the apparent evidence against President Baltar, the colonial fleet and its population made their will known. Pushing his new political clout to the limit, Zarek does his best to utilize this momentum to root out the cylon threat.

Leadership-2 (Executive Order)

13 - 3 = 10 PASS!

Result: Tom Zarek is elected president! The quorum deck passes to a new hand.

I accept the will of the colonies. I pray that the lords of Kobol will watch over my successor. I hope that the unpleasant feelings tied to the election will pass so we can focus on the incoming cylon raiders.

In truth, this may be a positive thing. This change will give me more time to focus on my cylon detector - so we can know for certain what dangers we face.


I can help to a small degree in this challenge.

It seems this time Zarek has reached too far. Recent attempts at rooting out the remaining cylon threats resulted in the spawning of numerous witch hunts throughout the fleet, damaging morale.

Quote :
POL/LEA = 12
Politics-1 (Consolidate Power)
Politics-1 (Consolidate Power)

Engineering-3 (Scientific Research)
Tactics-1 (Launch Scout)

2 - 4 = -2 FAIL!

Result: The fleet loses 1 morale! Heavy raiders activate and the fleet gains one jump prep!

Please be aware, if heavy raiders activate again, they will deploy their centurions to board Galactica. If the centurions remain unchecked (see the Armory location), the humans will lose the game.

##Go to Admirals Quarters
##Activate Admirals Quarters and accuse Gias Baltar
##Use Cylon Hatred to reduce the difficulty by 3


Now that we know Baltar is a cylon (see my previous post with details) and I have crawled out of the bottle, we should stick him in the brig where he belongs.

Let me know if I did this right, still figuring everything out (EDIT to make stuff bold)

It was bound to happen, with the Presidency passing to new hands, the military begins to take matters into its own hands. Will the colonists agree that Baltar is guilty? Or will they find the evidence against him lacking?

TheRambizzle has initiated a skill check! If successful, Gaius Baltar will be placed in the Brig.

Quote :
Skill Check: LEA/TAC = 7
Pass: Gaius Baltar is moved to the Brig.
Fail: No effect

Note that the check difficulty has been reduced by 3 due to Saul Tigh's ability.
