Yeah, I was thinking the hangar deck in my original fantasy, really.

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

Sure, that'd be a fine thing. That whole launching-gets-a-bonus-action thing confuses me, so I tend not to use it in my theoretical plans.
Eta: so, skill check. How about a Support the People interrupt, helpful?

Apollo is fantasizing about me on the hangar deck.

Which is the better choice, one die roll you hope to get four or better on, or four die rolls you hope to get four or better on? In the first case each pip represents a viper destroyed. In the second, each roll of four or above does.

Abso-damn-lutely! Then I could actually help. I think that if I got the Political Prowess, I couldn't use it because the check would have begun, but, hey, it's worth 6. Or maybe I should go for Purple? Looking at your hands, Tigh and Kat, you have an anecdotal guess as to which stack will have higher-value cards left?
Oh, and the Cylons don't have Treachery yet, so there's just a one in six chance Destiny will do something, if that.

The former. That card is badass. Even if you roll under four, you'll still destroy at least one Raider.

Heh, that's a nice decision to have before you, Kat.
OK, Support the People - 2 and I'll go get some COs started for the check.

I have had a few high value purples in my hand recently.

That's true. You had some high SPs.
I will draw 2 Yellow, then. I'll have to wait to see what they are before putting in COs; if they're both really high, one may be useful to keep. If I get two Red Tapes again, I will punch someone.

Hey, wait: if I get Political Prowess, we could tank this brig check and use Kat's second action to activate the brig again, and then I could use it, and then we wouldn't waste any cards. But we would waste the extra action. Is that a dumb move?
It probably is. But I thought of it, so I had to say it.
Oh! I just realized Tory can't spike this check because she drew Yellow. So we're only up against Cally and Destiny. Whew.

Isn't the check purple/yellow?
