Fall In game 5 - The Cylons Among Us

In this scenario we have 3 Vipers and 2 Raptors vs 4 Cylon Raiders. The Raptors have to find 5 mineral deposits scattered about the board. One of the Colonials is a Cylon but none of the Colonials know who it is. Their 2nd objective is to find out who the Cylon is. The Cylons do know who it is. The Cylon goal is to stop the Colonials from achieving their 2 objectives.

I didn't get to take many photos of this game as most players were new and I am not yet totally comfortable running BSG. Hopefully I will get better and there will be more photos in future games.

The first plotting phase.

A Viper and Raider face off. The valuable minerals are seen as green cubes. The Raptors must get to close range and be at speed 2 or less, then roll 2d6 at 6+ to find it. If you miss twice there is nothing there.

The Colonials have a small head start on the Cylons. 2 Vipers turn to engage Raiders.

The Vipers are having trouble keeping between the Raptors and the Cylons.

A Cylon successfully jumped and confronted a Raptor as it approached it’s prize. (Cylons can jump twice in a game. I restricted Raptors to only once. Vipers cannot jump.)

The 2nd Raptor is hunted down as it nears a possible mineral site.

This Raptor found some valuable minerals at the cost of a Cylon attack.

A pair of Vipers gang up on a Raider.

A Raptor gets some relief as a Viper gains the attention of a pair of Raiders.

A Heavy Raider jumps into the battle. Lucky for the Colonials a Viper has it in it’s sights.

The Colonials found enough minerals to reach that part of their victory condition but they weren’t all clear on who was the Cylon so I call it a draw.

It was a fun battle with some good flying for mostly new BSG pilots.

Interesting challenge.
BSG has not captured my :money:but good to look at.
