How far can I move these ships? Oh, adjacent areas. hum.
Request civilian ship Alpha flee to sector 2. Let's get some birds in the air to protect that ship.
...errrm, Admiral, this is ship Charlie, we're surrounded by Raiders. Should we move or get some air support or...
Negative, Charlie. Just stay put. Everything's going to be fine.
BSG
Admiral Cain is ruthless! Sorry, Charlie.
BSG
Ooh, ship C has been hung out to dry! Disgruntled captains, in a show of solidarity, are disrupting your water supply! Cain's Crisis is:
Water Shortage - B
President's Choice
President Baltar, when you're ready, please post your choice.
BSG
As much as I hate to lose that many cards I'm even more worried about losing more food.
BSG
Bloody hell. Yeah, we've taken more than enough Food hits already. It's time to bite the bullet.
I choose
Option 2
and discard LS-1 and SR-3.
Pass on basestar interrupts, obvs, since I have no cards now!
BSG
I discard LS-2, GI-2 & DE-3, frakkit.
pass on interrupts, too.
BSG
Hey, look, we just passed an 11GPB skill check not to lose Food. Yay for us?
I am going to punch this game in the face.
BSG
I am going to punch this game in the face.
Hee. It's been pretty hardcore. And all this without a revealed Cylon...
BSG
Hell, I don't even know if we have an unrevealed Cylon. No skill checks have been sabotaged that I can tell.
BSG
The discard is done. Admiral Cain apologises
a lot
for leaving one of the civvies in harm's way. Even President Baltar pretends to care. The Food is saved!
Naturally, the strains of "Kum-ba-yah" floating across the airwaves cause the Cylons no end of irritation. They open fire at the speaker system:
Die roll = 4. Hit!
Admiral Cain, was that singalong rigged up from Galactica or Pegasus?
