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

BSG

That's it for interrupts. There is an At Any Cost on this check, so Treachery counts positive, and the check is Reckless. Destiny plays two cards. Helo is first to play. Everyone else can send me COs if they wish.

Ok, that's 1 card from Helo, and 0 cards from Apollo. I have some COs: Chief Tyrol plays 0 cards, Anders plays 1 card. Gaeta is up next.

I'm back home, and back in the driver's seat. Wallybee scoffed when I said we should get a racecar bed! Who's laughing now? (Her parents, mostly. Ah well, Ryan seems to like it.)

I have COs from Zarek, which means we have a result! First, however, now I'm back and can check my records more carefully, I must report that Gaeta played only 1 card. The play:

Destiny: 2 cards
Helo: 1 card
Apollo: 0 cards
Chief: 0 cards
Anders: 1 card
Gaeta: 1 card
Zarek: 1 card

The cards:

Preventative Policy 4
Executive Order 2
Executive Order 2
Declare Emergency 5
Special Destiny 2
Launch Scout 1

Thanks to the AAC-3 interrupt, the SD-2 counts positive instead of negative. You therefore reach:

Tally: 15 - 1 = 14. Pass!

No Treachery gets added to Destiny. On the other hand, since you were so good as to make this check Reckless, the SD-2 means that Treachery gets added to everyone's hand. You each get 1 Treachery card, going out now (starting with Helo).

That concludes Zarek's turn. Helo, I'm sending you your cards and a treasure map with sign saying "HERE THERE BE BATTLESTARS". That's right folks, the Admiral got tired of phoning it in and decided to ge where the action is. Helo starts on the Hangar Deck. When you're ready, please post your move and action.

Administrative note: this skill check reduced the Destiny deck to 6 cards. I have replenished it; Destiny now contains 18 cards.
