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

BSG

Pradmiral Tigh survivies the attempts to fragment his psyche into distinct personae. He remains President, Admiral and Disco King.

That concludes Tigh's turn. Tory, you may draw two cards of any (different) colours. When you're ready, please post your choice.

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

BSG

Kat, do you have a card you wouldn't mind discarding? I have to discard randomly, so I was thinking that if I get an XO, I could XO you to make the jump, unless I have a shitty hand and don't care what I lose.

BSG

Per the FAQ, Apollo's random discard doesn't apply to discarding a card to move between ships. The reasoning is that it's optional whether Apollo moves, so he isn't forced to discard.

How about the Engine Room?

I have nothing directly addressing it, but I'd have to give it the same ruling. Apollo isn't forced to activate the Engine Room, so he needn't discard randomly to do so.

Tory, on your turn, you can just pass. We won't mind. You're probably still recovering from being executed; we know it can be kind of traumatic.

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

BSG

yeah, Tory. Feel free to XO me and I promise to carry out all your nefarious duties while you take a nap.

Ooh, yeah, Kat. She should XO you, and you can go kill both the Centurions and jump us to safety. And then you can reach into your bag of tricks and pull out five jump icons and auto-jump us to Kobol! We can win on Tory's turn! Hurrah!
