Find the Skinjob Discussion

Post by Sonic Glitch »

Hey all, is anyone interested in another round? I have another sci-fi themed idea. I know we have a few nBSG fans on here, and enough people who are familiar enough with it due to our discussion to participate in it; my idea is "Find the Cylon." Here's the basic scenario:

It returns to the original format of 1 enemy and say 5 or 6 humans, and the enemies mission is to kill all the humans.
You are survivors of a battlestar which was destroyed in the preemptive strike. You and your merry band managed to hop in a Colonial shuttle.. which despite your best stealthy (we'll say it was a new Stealthstar prototype that should have been undetectable to the cylons) efforts was unfortunately damaged by flak and crashed onto a moon. The goal of humans is to repair the shuttle so they can escape (don't want to broadcast a distress call as that'll surely attract the cylons) and the goal of the cylon is to either finish the revenge by killing all the humans, or failing that send out a signal that will bring the cylon raiders down on you all (that part can be negotiated with further discussion).

I'm thinking, 1 Cylon who's job it is to kill people, 1 marine who can guard 1 person including himself per "night", and 1 scientist who can (throuogh some sort of technical voodoo) test for and detect a cylon, and then 4 other humans.

Question, comments, concerns, critiques, suggestions?

I'm in. And I can play regularly as long as there isn't another 4 day power outage.

I'm not really familiar with BSG, but I'm willing to give it a try.

So we have 5.

We need two more, tell your friends! Or do we think 5 is an adequate number? In my opinion the better range is 6-7.

I've seen maybe 3 eps of BSG, but It shouldn't be that hard to play

Anybody else? If not I'll try and get roles out by Thursday to start the ball rolling on Friday, does that work? I figure maybe 4 days and then the first night. I don't know yet.

Keep in mind I'll have a hell of a time getting online during the weekend, unless they get my internet up in record time at my new dwelling.

Fair point. I made the plan before I saw your post in "What's the latest...?" We shall wait then
