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

BSG

She told me she passes. Yeah, she did.

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

BSG

She told me she passes. Yeah, she did.

You can't trust Cylons, you know. They lie! In fact, Cally plays 1 card. Here's the story:

Destiny: 2 cards
Cally: 1 card
Tigh: 2 cards
Tory: 0 cards
Apollo: 1 card
Kat: 1 card

Cards played:

Preventative Policy 5
Declare Emergency 5
Trust Instincts 0
Trust Instincts 0
Launch Scout 1
Establish Network 0
Scientific Research 3

We have no less than 3 0-value cards in this check! Two duplicates, so sadly one doesn't have any effect. The SR-3 is doubled in value, and Destiny will add two more cards.

Tally: 11 - 6 = 5. Ooh, that doesn't look good. Can Destiny save the day?

Executive Order 1
Executive Order 1

Frankly, I think Destiny's just phoning it in at this point. Tally = 7. Fail! That means we have a die roll. Everyone passes on interrupts. Let's see if that visitor was up to no good.

Die roll: 7. No effect. Really, I don't know what you were all so worried about.

Finally, the jump track advances. That concludes Kat's action-packed turn. (No, really, there were two actions, and a bonus action too! I counted them.) Cally is on the Resurrection Ship, and therefore draws a single card. She has chosen to draw Yellow. Cally, when you're ready, please post your move and action.

(Administrative note: The cards added by Trust Instincts exhausted the Destiny deck. I've created a new one. This in turn exhausted the Piloting deck. I've reshuffled the discards.)

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

BSG

Hm. I can only help a little. If we are going for it.

I can help a lot but I'm afraid it isn't enough.

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

BSG

Man, frakking Destiny. At least we survived the die roll.

And I can't help at all on this check. At least Tory doesn't have an SCC. Looks like we're inching closer to losing. Tigh, I suggest an early jump on your turn. We can afford the population loss, and we need to get to Kobol before the Centurions board. There are too many for us to fight them all off: they take a frakking 7 or 8 to kill.
