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

Fuel, that fickle mistress, drops by 2. That concludes Baltar's turn. Boomer, I'm sending you your cards. When you're ready, please post your move and action.

OK, I'll discard an EM-1 to move to the Press Room which I will then activate. I'll be standing by, ready to draw more yellow whenever nothing else needs doing.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

With an XO I can blast that base star. Alas I've momentarily lost the ability to Strategically Plan.

Y'all, this Recon thing is hard. It's not the puppies and flowers crisis, but last time I buried something kinda bad, we ended up with something much scarier, so I'm keeping this one.

My general rule is to bury the ones that don't advance the jump track.
