I have a pass CO from Cally too.
Die roll = 3. Hit! One raider destroyed. Nice shooting, Anders, your first kill. However, it might have been a tactical error to call Cain after sampling the care package Baltar left you. ...And everyone else on Galactica. An exerpt from the Comms record:
"Hey, is this the Admiral? Check it out Bro, I totally blew up that raider. That's one-all between Galactica and Pegasus so far."
"What do you mean, one-all? Over."
"That's the score now, you know? Pegasus has blown up one ship, and now Galactica has too. Sweet as, Bro."
"Ok, some points of military etiquette, Mr Anders. First, you sign off messages by saying 'Over', not "Sweet as". Second, You do not call the Admiral 'Bro'. Especially since I am a woman, and not your 'Bro'. Third, this is war, not a Pyramid game. We do not 'keep score', we fight them until we can't. And finally, WE BLEW UP A FRAKKING BASESTAR!!How does your sports-addled brain decide that hitting a single raider makes us 'one-all'? Over."
"No, see, basestars are huge, man. They're totally easier to hit. That raider, it was jinking all over the place! You should install some giant fly-swatters on this thing, that'd make it easier, know what I'm saying?"
"..."
"..."
"Look, I--"
"Oh, wait, sorry: 'Over.' Hey, Hot Dog, did you hear that? I just said 'Over' to the Admiral! This military stuff is awesome!"
"...Look, I planned my shot. Whereas you, if I understand correctly, accidentally landed on the firing button while playing Pyramid with Hot Dog and Kelly in Galactica's Command. IT. DOESN'T. COUNT!"
"Yo, Dude, you forgot to say 'Over'. ...'s ok, I forget it heaps too. ...Over."
(Hot Dog) "Hey, man, I think you're making her angry. Maybe you should, I dunno, let basestars count, like, double or something."
"OK, FINE. we've both hit one ship, huh?! Well, maybe I should hit another ship then, what do you think? Hey, Galactica's a ship, isn't it? WHY DON'T I JUST FRAKKING HIT THAT?! Hoshi, bring all weapons on line!!"
"Dude, you forgot to say 'Over' again."
"AIM FOR WEAPONS CONTROL!"
Baltar's Crisis is:
Standoff with Pegasus
Skill check (22 YGPR)
Possible interrupts: Investigative Committee, Scientific Research, Reckless interrupts. Everyone, please pass or play. You can send me COs for the check to if you wish. President Baltar, your Delusional Intuition allows you to draw another skill card. Please post your choice of colour.
BSG
Well, I can pass on interrupts, since I don't have any to play.
Man, that is a high target and we don't have many cards. But the consequences of failing the check are pretty bad.
BSG
Okay, so I could help with an IC on this check, but then my options on the check are either all or nothing, my weakness is that I can only play no cards, or more than one card. If someone else can play an IC, then I think I can be of more help by playing my cards into the check. If no one else can do an IC then I can play it for this check.
BSG
Yeah, that`s how I roll! Err, sorry about the thing with the Admiral, she totally should know "Bro" is, like, a gender neutral term
All of which is to say, seriously, a four color check and I have the one color that`s no good? So, I can`t help, and also have no interrupts.
BSG
Holy frak, Anders, WHAT WERE YOU THINKING.
Okay, I'm going to draw Y and hope to get an IC that I can play instead of Cally. I can also Support the People and allow most of you to draw a couple extra cards. Destiny should be with us.
BSG
Frak frak frakkity frak. Cally, you're going to have to play your IC, but I'm going to play Support the People-2, so everyone but Cain and I gets to draw 2 cards.
BSG
Timing around StP and other interrupts is pretty vague. For the sake of clarity, I'm ruling that we finish up on interrupts, and then anyone with four or fewer cards can draw two more. That means:
1. We are still in the interrupt phase, looking for an IC and/or SR.
2. Once interrupts are done, Anders, Boomer and Cally will draw two cards (from their skill set). You can post your choice of colour(s), or send me COs. New cards will not be available to play as an interrupt, as this concludes the interrupt window.
3. Boomer will start the check, Baltar will finish it. I have COs from Boomer, but since she's among the crew drawing two new cards, I'll get new orders from her once she sees the new cards. Anyone can send me COs at any time, especially Cain and Baltar, who won't draw new cards from StP.
