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

Wow, nice move, Cally! And yet again, we managed to overshoot by a lot, damn. Who would have guessed that? Looks like Boomer figured she didn't stand a chance against you. And then Destiny was positive after all. Sheesh!
And then we still lose Food anyway, even though we've protected our Morale and Fuel. Our victory doesn't feel so victorious.
Anders, get out there and start shooting! You're our only hope!
Cally: Research Lab; 1 card
Preeeetty sure she's not in my lab. I would know. Trust me, I'm a doctor.

Okay, I didn't draw an XO. I'm going to operate under the assumption that pilots gotta fly.
I move to the Hangar Deck and I launch myself into Sector 5 making a sort of ululating sound as I go, whereupon I play Max Firepower 3 to blast away at the foe 4 times. Die, suckas!

Samuel T Anders takes the fight to the Cylons, complete with 'pew pew' sound effects!
Attack 1: 7. Hit!
Attack 2: 3. Hit!
Attack 3: 1. Miss.
Attack 4: 3. Hit!
Three raiders have been shot down, one of them quite possibly in the nuts. Kind of a shame you don't have more of an audience for this, don't you think? I think ew should arrange an audience. Anders' Crisis is:
Surrounded
Cylon Attack
The good news is, the extra basestar doesn't get placed, as you already have two on the board. The bad news is, they start the festivities by shooting at you.
Basestar 1: 5. Hit!
Basestar 2: 4. Hit!
As current player, Mr Anders chooses which ship gets hit. Anders, did they hit Galactica, Pegasus or one of each?
While you decide that, a bunch of ships get added to the board. Finally, as current player, Anders must now discard 3 cards. When you're ready, please post your discards.
That will conclude Anders' turn. Cain is up next. Admiral Cain, would you like to draw Leadership or Tactics for your optional draw?

MOTHERFRAKKING HELL WHY CAN'T WE CATCH A FRAKKIN' BREAK.
Cain, I am seriously considering jumping early. We have to get away from these Cylons and regroup. A Blind Jump may be called for, or if you get a jump icon on your turn, I will hope for good cards on my turn. If I have to push that button myself, I may do it. I don't know if we can last the rest of this jump cycle. Any thoughts, Team Probably Mostly Human for Now at Least?
The other option is to nuke a basestar, but it seems early; we've only made one jump.

I'm sure I don't know what you're talking about, after all this card didn't have a skill check. Not even a little one.

I have orders from Anders. First of all, he has chosen to damage Pegasus twice. We have a 2 in 3 chance of sending Cally to Sickbay! The basestars damage:
Pegasus CIC
Airlock
NOOOOOO!! Not the Airlock! Why is it always the good ones that suffer? The Main Batteries are now the only undamaged location on Pegasus. One more hit and the entire basestar will be destroyed! (Galactica can take at least six hits before being destroyed. Methinks Pegasus is a bit of a cream puff.)
Next we add a bunch of ships, and finish up with Anders discarding:
Major Victory 2
At Any Cost 3
Launch Scout 1
That concludes Anders' turn. Once Cain makes her choice of card draw, her turn will start.

Oh, thank goodness. Sorry for risking you, Cally!
