Thanks.

Yeah, we did all have fun. We weren't very good though, lol. We played a 4 player game, and only jumped twice, for a grand total of 3. Didn't even make the sleeper phase, lol.

But the first game is usually a bit of a mess. We all like the game though.

One last thing about secrecy. The book mentions not discussing the specific strength of your cards for a skill check... but what about the text on your skill cards?

I understand the secrecy rules, and agree they are important. But it also seems like a logical discussion during a co-op game to say something like "Go to the armory so I can use my executive orders on you". But I'm assuming such a thing is technically forbidden?

You can't say anything about the cards in your hand other than if you can contribute "a little" or "a lot." Anything other than that is forbidden.

edit: Though, you could suggest that someone go to the armory, but not why. And you (or they) might be a cylon...
