Oh, I was figuring from his wording Zarek had the legendary Iron Will of the formerly imprisoned.

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

Ah yes, I figured he had that too. He's very resourceful.

I don't have Jury-rigged. All the places I said I could do that were ones where the Pass effect was no effect. Hence, avoiding fail effect=pass effect.

(And isn't Jury-rigged Blue?)

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir

Sounds like we are iffy on de-brigging me via skill check. I can only do one card, and the one I can do is only a little.

I'm leaning towards XO to Chief, since he's in Pegasus CIC. That gives the possibility of damaging that basestar. And he has the chance of doing it TWICE, which could thus wipe it off the table. If folks have Strategic Planning, that would cement the choice.

Thoughts? Advice?

Look at that, I could help with an SP.

Blow that shit up, Chief!

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

BSG

Feel free to send me COs for interrupts for any actions Anders or an XO'd player might get up to.

Rock on! I play Green-1 XO, and I tap the Chief to go to town!

(and hey, look, no crisis card this round)

Don't forget to bold your orders. (I can work this one out, but still.)

Chief, you've received an XO. You may either move and take an action, or not move and take two actions, When you're ready, please post your orders. (If anyone wants to play an SP on Pegasus CIC rolls, send me COs.)

First action: fire on the basestar with the CIC. Pew pew pew.

Seems like the CIC should make a bigger noise, doesn't it?
