Admiral's Choice
Admiral Cain, when you're ready, please post your choice.
BSG
Glad to have you in the skies, Boomer.
And uh, at least jump track advances?
BSG
And no skill check, just like the President wanted.
BSG
Can't say you don't listen to authority!
BSG
I guess the question is whether you can fend off the attack until we can jump. -2 Pop is steep for a Crisis Card, I think. We should be losing Population from Cylon attacks, not because we, uh, decide to sacrifice them to keep from being attacked? I don't know.
BSG
I'm OK with risking population but option 2 doesn't seem too awful. I'm going to ignore what my character would do and wait for opinions from the rest of the team.
BSG
You want me to hold off 6 Raiders, 3 of which will be here in one more activation? I can try.
BSG
Only 5 Raiders, 2 of which will be there in one activation. Protect all 5 civvies! By yourself!
Er, maybe this is not the best plan. Here is the thing, then: if we consider that you will probably fail, then we will lose a whole lot more than 2 Population if the Raiders attack those civvies.
I'm leaning towards the Pop loss now, unless we think we can take on the Cylons and not lose any civvies before we jump.
BSG
I'm guessing if Boomer had some good piloting cards she'd be sounding a little braver right now. I'll go ahead and do what Cain would do.
I choose Option 1
Acceptable losses, people.
BSG
Oops, I hadn't updated my notes.
Well, with only 5 Raiders bearing down on me and my new friends...that still sounds like a challenge. I could probably hold out a little while, but I don't know how long. My piloting skills would be depleted pretty quickly if you know what I mean.
