BSG:The Board Game
 

Press release says Fall 2008 so in FFG speak that means June 2009

Sounds interesting, though it'd be nice to know some of how the mechanics work...

The game is out now and it is really fun. It is kind of a team game where depending on the number of players you will have some players playing as cylons and some playing as humans.

When the game starts you won't know who the cylons are as everyone will be dealt a loyalty card that only they can look at it. Players will also be dealt a loyalty card midway through the game so you could find out you are actually a sleeper agent and mid-game turn against the humans.

The game ends when the humans make enough jumps to get to Kobol or when the Cylons either reduce any of the resources to 0, destroy 6 locations on Galactica or board enough Centurions on to Galactica to take it over.

There are a lot of mechanics to how all these things work, but that is the broad gist of the game.

And thank you Jormi, for not saying that the humans have to jump to earth.
