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

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

BSG

Shall I launch a nuke in Sector 2? Or Sector 3? Is it possible the civvie can escape nuclear devastation?

Don't forget to post a move, unless you'd like to start your next turn in Sickbay too.

I'm planning to move to Command but I will wait a moment to see if anyone has a better idea.

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

In addition, as a suspicious Cain leans over the control panel, she is taken by surprise as a boxing glove on a spring bursts out and catches her right in the face! The face, I say!

Not in the FACE! Sorry we weren't able to warn you about that, Cain. (At least we didn't have any Reckless consequences.)

Can a nuke hit civvies? I think that's Exodus rules.

I'm planning to move to Command but I will wait a moment to see if anyone has a better idea.

It seems like a fine idea unless you go around saying, "By your Command!"

Our wings are not tired

BSG

So if I'm looking at the cards correctly we had one player other than Boomer spike the check.

Correct, your civvies are safe from nuclear conflagration. Apparently nuclear missiles are higher-precision weaponry than Pegasus' guns. Using the Cylon Fleet option in Pegasus gives you nukes that can destroy Colonial ships too.

That's enough dithering. I move to Command and launch a nuke into Sector 3.

The Treachery had to come from Boomer because none of us have a Treachery card, but the other negative card is Leadership, and we all draw Leadership. I have a Cylon Detector but don't know who to detect. I suppose I have a one in three chance of getting it right if I just pick one of you at random.

Using the Cylon Fleet option in Pegasus gives you nukes that can destroy Colonial ships too.

How's that? Cylons don't get nukes.

That's enough dithering. I move to Command and launch a nuke into Sector 3.

Cylons get nuked!
