During the social distancing protocol, Ashton revisits one of his favorite games of all time: Battlestar Galactica. Battlestar Galactica (BSG) is a re-imagined science fiction TV series that ran in the late 2000s, featuring the humans trying to find their home world of Kobol, while robot cylons hunted them down. What ties into the whole social-deduction element found in this board game is that there are freaking cylons in the ship that look entirely human, trying to sabotage Galactica from within.

Battlestar Galactica: The Board Game (Plus the Pegasus, Exodus, and Daybreak Expansions) is a Fantasy Flight Games (FFG) publication that was published in 2008, designed by Corey Konieczka, featuring bluffing, deduction, a strong sci-fi TV show theme, politics, area movement, dice rolling, hand management, hidden roles, once-per-game abilities, and even voting. As one of the most popular thematic board games of all time, it is a semi-cooperative game where 3-6 players take on the role of pilots, political leaders, military leaders, or engineers to crew the ship Galactica. The game takes about 2-3 hours.
