You don't happen to have a CS so we could pull the Kat move again, eh? Unbrig you to go shoot at a Centurion?
Otherwise, I'm not sure anything you could do would be useful. All Tory has to do is move the Centurion, and we lose. You don't even draw a Crisis. Well, actually, if we get you out, you draw a Crisis, and there is the slim possibility that it could help us in some way. Or activate the Heavy Raiders and kill us on your turn.
I guess that's the best option, though.
BSG
No CS.
I'd a lost my cards whoever we brigged, IIRC. And I really didn't want to brig Kat again after she had to languish in there for so long AND when she's our best weapon against centurions.
BSG
I'd a lost my cards whoever we brigged, IIRC.
Ah, right, but still, you could have made an attempt and blindly shot, which is more than you can do now. Even brigging me would have been better, in retrospect.
I can help a lot in getting you out of the brig, but I would probably only be able to help a little on the Crisis, depending on what it is. So if it lets us destroy a Centurion or move one back or SOMETHING, we have a small chance. I can't think of anything else useful besides playing a Blow Up Tory card.
BSG
I can't help much on a brig check but let's at least go down fighting.
BSG
OK, then. Activate the frakking brig. Also, At Any Cost-4, what the heck, no sense in hanging onto it.
BSG
We have an escape attempt. Other possible interrupts are IC and SR. The Cylons can't play them, and Kat hasn't drawn the right colours. Apollo, please pass or play.
Everyone can send me COs for the check itself too. Tory will play first, Tigh last.
BSG
Pass on interrupts.
BSG
The check begins.
Destiny:
2 cards
Tory:
Apollo:
(COs received)
Kat:
Cally:
Tigh:
(COs received)
BSG
I play one card.
BSG
I now have orders from everyone. Here's how it went down:
Destiny:
2 cards
Tory:
1 card
Apollo:
2 cards
Kat:
2 cards
Cally:
1 card
Tigh:
1 card
Cards played:
Consolidate Power 2
Launch Scout 1
Launch Scout 2
Strategic Planning 3
Scout for Fuel 6
God's Plan 2
Maximum Firepower 3
Best of the Best 6
Repair 2
Tally: 16 - 11 = 5. Fail. Tigh's At Any Cost turns the single Treachery card positive; alas, the check still falls short by 2. No one has a DE to play; Tigh remains brigged.
That concludes Tigh's turn. I have COs from Tory. She draws Treachery and Yellow, and then, well, I should quote this:
"And oh, you know, now that I think about it, I would like to activate the awesome lone Centurion to end humanity. Muwhahaha! I put the laugh in bold too, because that's an order."
The Centurion reaches the end of the Boarding Party track, and is instantly declared king of Galactica! I'm sorry, it's military protocol, these things are very strict.
Cylons Win!
