Wow that was a beautiful thing. Nice shooting, Apollo.
Wish I'd taken one out myself, but, hey, one more to go if we don't jump on Chief's turn. I considered not even bothering, but I hedged my bets in case Chief gets a terrible catastrophe like a Cylon attack that damages FTL and then we don't get a jump icon forever. IT COULD HAPPEN.
BSG
I will
draw a Quorum card,
then wait to see what the card is before deciding whether to play or draw.

BSG
And I will
draw a second card.
BSG
OK. For my second action, I will begin by (surprise!)
drawing a Quorum card.
second verse, same as the first!
BSG
Hm. That one will definitely be useful, but not yet, I think.
Draw a fourth Quorum card.
BSG
Card sent. President Zarek has spent the last hour haranguing the Quorum for "phenomenal cosmic power". Sadly, he forgot to rub their bellies for luck. Chief's crisis is:
Thirty Three
Cylon Attack
Most of this is pretty straightforward, but the raider does get one shot at the RSV:
Die roll: 5. RSV damaged!
We shall pause here for the pilots to pass or play on EM interrupts. This roll could also be made to fail with a Calculations. Anyone who has a Calcs, either post or send me COs.
BSG
Pass, I'm saving my EM for a more critical hit.
