Just got done with a 4 player game (first game). I was the cylon, and because of the sympathizer card, the guy to my right was a cylon. We figured out early on that we could sit on the human fleet space, draw two engineering cards, look at one of the other player's cards, and make sure we hoarded all the repair cards, then rolled to damage Galactica. It didn't seem there was much the humans could do to stop us. Has anyone done this? Were we playing it wrong or was there a strat the humans could have used to prevent it? Apollo and Tyrol were the cylons, with Baltar and Tigh were human.
repair bug?
It's a vialbe startegy. What the humans could do is obviously use the reseach labb to get new repair cards, and ofcourc EO people in the reseach lab. Allso, if the cylons keep drawing engenering and are both revealed their ability to influnce skillchecks are greatly reduced so it should still maintain some sort of balance.
There was a lengthy discusion on this a while back, I'll see if I can dig that thread up.
