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

BSG

man, I don't even know. Is it possible we already have two cylons? I was so convinced we didn't yet have any that I would have given Boomer that XO, too.

Very roughly speaking, given that there's already one Cylon, there's about a one in three chance that there's another one too. However, whether you think your crew mates are acting human or Cylon-y will naturally affect how you view those odds.

I think I'd move to Command and launch a couple vipers... can they launch into Sector 2?

The President, being a keen student of military matters, and having had to map out just how he was going to get his Anders-raptor hybrid from the Research Lab into space, is correct. They can only launch directly into Sectors 5 or 6, though of course they can be moved one Sector at a time thereafter.

What about jumping to Pegasus and firing the Main Batteries? Does anyone have any interrupts that would increase our odds of destroying some raiders?

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

The Main Batteries are damaged. They have to be Repaired first.

If we had an SP and a Calcs we could guarantee taking out 2 raiders, and have the possibility of 4.

Well, that would put a damper on that. Yes, I could jump to Pegasus and repair the Main Batteries and then be in position for a shot.

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

BSG

Pegasus sure can be helpful as a weapon and as a target. I'm thinking Cally should head over there but I also think both launching vipers and shooting at base stars are also viable options.

Okay, I'm going to MOVE to Pegasus discarding an IC-3 then use my R-1 to Repair the Main Batteries.

May the gods be with us.

Cally now has the run of the half-derelict battlestar Pegasus, and immediately sets about giving it her own personal touch. And it looks like she's uncovered something deeply troubling - not all of the damage on Pegasus was from the basestar! Cally's Crisis is:

Sabotage Investigated
Skill Check (9 PB)

As Blue is already positive, there's no need for an SR. Possible interrupts are an IC and/or Reckless interrupts. Everyone, please pass or play. You can also send me COs for the check itself.
