Re: BSG Via Vassal Anyone?
When is the next game?
For me also 7 is better but Could start at 8. Actually, its not so much the time we start that bothers me, it's the time we finish...

Re: BSG Via Vassal Anyone?
I had a great time last time and I'm free this week at 7:00 pm if possible...
Also, has anyone here played with the Exodus expansion yet and put together the destiny deck?
Is this correct or a mistake in the rulez? Would love some help.
Also, has anyone here played with the Exodus expansion yet and put together the destiny deck?
This means I have 8 cards in the destiny deck (No Baltar, No Boomer)PAGE 6 - of Exodus Rulebook
Step 2
Four Players: Create an eight-card deck consisting of:
1 Card from the “You Are a Cylon” deck
7 Cards from the “You Are Not a Cylon” deck
Ok, by adding the Sympathizer card the means I will have 5 cards to hand out after the mid-point.Step 5
Add Sympathizer: If playing a four or six player game, add
the “You Are a Sympathizer” card to the Loyalty deck and
then shuffle it.

Re: BSG Via Vassal Anyone?
The loyalty deck rules change for Exodus because executions due to trauma/loyalty cards is greater, so while in the base/pegasus you had an even number of loyalty cards, you now make a deck with an extra "you are not a cylon" so that way theres always the possibility that you would only have, say, one active cylon in a 5 player game after sleep agent where previously it was guaranteed that there were two. Also, everytime a human player is executed you add another "you are not" to the deck and reshuffle.
So in your example, you would indeed have 5 cards to hand out in a 4 player game at the midpoint.

Re: BSG Via Vassal Anyone?
Ok, so it is possible to not have a cylon player in the game and a sympathizer cylon who is on the side of the humans. That last card left over would be the "You are a Cylon" card.

Re: BSG Via Vassal Anyone?
Btw, I played exodus with the conflicted loyalties and Cylon Fleet options (no ionean nebula) and it worked great. The cylon fleet was the single best part of all the expansions. It really gives the pilots something to do and you really feel like you don't have nearly enough birds in the air. Also, it is much easier for the Heavy Raiders to get a Centurion on the Boarding Track.

Re: BSG Via Vassal Anyone?
Potentially, sure. You wouldnt know which card it was, exactly, you'd just know that SOME card is leftover. Could be either a "Not" or "You are a Cylon".
You did? That's good! We'll definitely have to play that soon. I'm not entirely sure which day yet, but we'll figure it out asap.

I couldnt reach a few of our key players today, unfortunately. I know scoop is busy tomorrow, so maybe we'll postpone the game to next mon/tues?

Re: BSG Via Vassal Anyone?
Ah crap, I didnt see you posted about tonight x_X. Darn. Four of our players are not available tonight, as far as I can tell, which turned out to be fortuitous since I missed the message. It's been harder to organize the next game than I thought. A few people have been having some large tests and a lot of schoolwork that has been impeding the process. I'll definitely let you know which day this week if I can figure out the best time for everyone.

Re: BSG Via Vassal Anyone?
Hey guys. Looks like the Exodus expansion has been fully added to the Vassal site. I just downloaded it and it looks like it works.
Any chance we can get a game going this week? I'm really itching to try the Ionian Nebula although it looks hella confusing right now.
I'm free all week starting at 7:00 pm.

Re: BSG Via Vassal Anyone?
Oh thats awesome! A lot of our players havent responded, so I'm wondering when a good time is going to be. It's been a hectic month for a few of them which is why we havent had many games. I'd like to schedule one for monday night at like 7, but I'll have to see exactly what everyone is doing.
If monday is good for you, post here and we'll see how many we get.

Sorry I didnt respond tonight. I was looking to see if we got more than 2 posts (you and j) because no one else seems to be responding ;( Not sure where everyone has been to be honest. I wish we had a few more players that would be around. I'll make some phone calls tomorrow and see if any of my friends want to play.

Hey Cactusgod, I won't be available tonight (wednesday) however I can confirm that three of us (including me and two guys new to vassal) can play at 7:00 pm on Monday night. Would be great if we can coordinate you and JonnyDemonic and a couple of your friends.
Let me know what you think.

I will be available tonight. I would probably say we could use all the parts besides the cylon fleet, though we can do that if everyone wants. it's just a bit more complex and may take more time than what everyone wants, but its up to you guys. I think I'll have at least one other player, maybe 2 who want to join.
