You like ships. You don't seem to be looking at the destinations. What you care about is the ships, and mine's the nicest.

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

As a note, I'm going to be at Comic-Con, so I won't be checking in as often for the next five or six days, but I will definitely keep up with my MAGICAL SMARTPHONE. I'll be waiting in line a lot, after all.

I've put in COs. I vote to TANK WITH TREACHERY.

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

BSG

My COs are going in. Treacherous Tank

BSG

I agree with the plan for a Treachery Tank

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

BSG

the GM would laugh bitterly for us.

I would quite possibly be laughing, though 'bitterly' counds like a stretch. Anyway, current state of the check: everyone has passed on interrupts, and three players have voted for a Tank with Treachery. Which is fine for setting strategy, but from my perspective it means I still need everyone's play. Check begins!

Destiny: 2 cards
Chief:
Anders: COs received
Gaeta:
Zarek:
Helo: COs received
Apollo: COs received

The Chief is up.

Is it possible we have three cylons?

Chief already discarded his Treachery to get to Colonial One.

BSG

I now have everyone's orders:

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

Cards played:

Investigative Committee 4
Broadcast Location 1
Broadcast Location 1
By Your Command 1
God's Plan 2
Special Destiny 2

Tally: 4 - 7 = -3. Fail! Morale falls by 1. Look at that, a full set of Reckless Treachery. Shame the check wasn't Reckless. It all goes to waste.

That concludes Apollo's turn. The Chief's cards are going out. Chief, when you're ready, please post your move and action.
