May have been the losing side. Still not convinced it was the wrong one.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

BSG

Nope.

"Architrave."

I'm expecting P-C to go into spelling bee mode.

No interrupts.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

BSG

Everyone passes:

Die roll = 4. Hit! The last raider is destroyed. That brings Galactica up to 3 kills, running even with Pegasus (as basestars count triple). Unfortunately, it may not have been politic to mention that to the Admiral. Seems like mentioning scores brings up some bad memories. Anders may still attract her ire. His Crisis is:

Defending a Prisoner
Skill Check (11 YG)

Interrupts are the usual suspects. Everyone, please pass or play.

BSG

Oh, frak! I pass on interrupts. I can help a little with this check, or I can help a little more and then have no cards. But I think we really need to pass this one.

I could play an SR interrupt but if I do that I really don't think I should burn two more cards to play into the check.

Thoughts?

BSG

SR won't help me. Are you saying that if you don't play it, you can't help at all? Or that you'd rather burn two cards instead of three?

BSG

I'd rather burn one card than three. If SR doesn't help anyone then I won't play it and instead will burn two cards.

BSG

Oh, no! I don't have any interrupts to play and I don't draw yellow or green, so I can't help at all. Good luck, Anders!

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

BSG

I don't want to die! Sheesh, that Admiral sure is tetchy. Not my fault Galactica is kicking Cylon ass! Whoo! What was I saying, oh, right, I don't want to die!

The SR doesn't help me. I can help moderately. And I don't think we should tank this one! I mean, strategically. Um.

No IC's, huh? That would be helpful, although given the color if it's an option between that and playing into the check, I'd rather be saved than know I'm being saved, know what I mean? I mean, I'd rather know I was being saved and be saved, than not be saved, but...maybe I should quit talking now.

Let's at least take the random out of this. I play my Guts and Initiative 1 to remove Destiny from the question. It may knock off some help, but since it's a two color check, it may knock off some inevitable betrayal, too.
