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

BSG

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

Our wings are not tired

BSG

It will never be 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.

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

BSG

Yeah, maybe. I can take out one centurion on my turn or if someone gives me an XO, but that doesn't buy us time, as such. One more Jump Prep and we autojump?

Sounds like maybe we should tank this check and save our cards?

Oh, I can pass on interrupts, fwtw.

Yeah, pass on interrupts, vote to TANK.

Yeah, but if you jump, then if you get a Jump Prep, it works toward the new jump cycle. I think speed is of the essence here. Although I think if we don't go 3 Distance on our next jump, we have no chance.

Well, Kat'll have 3 destinations to choose from, we can hope one of them will get us a long way.

The other side to the coin is if we can take out the two leading centurions, we have a little more time. I can get one and the more shots we take at the other the better our odds of getting it.

And if we jump on my turn, my crisis will hit at our new location - no telling if that's awful or okay.

Oh, is that what Assign Mission Specialist does? Nice!

True. That's also an option. I'll leave it up to you, Pradmiral.

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

BSG

Tigh and Apollo have voted to TANK, Kat has the deciding vote.

I can also take out a centurion with my Hotshot ability and a card value 5 or higher (yeah, I know there's lots of those.)
