When you lay out your pieces, you have a plan. Then it starts falling apart, and the game is to try to get at least some bits of it to work to give yourself the advantage.Friendlesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05302241085168424095noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5678683858871588370.post-9697405170761456182011-05-19T10:10:47.439-07:002011-05-19T10:10:47.439-07:00The traitor (Cylon) aspect intrigues me but I'...The traitor (Cylon) aspect intrigues me but I've never been at the right/place time to make the time commitment for this game.

You know a couple people are and that they are screwing you but you can't find them. It's what makes BSG a great game.Jasoncarloughhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06017599073816791074noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5678683858871588370.post-64428689158987037902011-05-18T11:24:58.065-07:002011-05-18T11:24:58.065-07:00Well, you like 3-players more I think, but I love ...Well, you like 3-players more I think, but I love head-to-head.
