I could squeeze you until you popped like warm champagne, and you'd beg me to hurt you just a little bit more.

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

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

BSG

If only there were some way to assign a mission specialist and xo someone in the same turn.

It can easily be done! Just not on Zarek's turn. Ah well.

"...and then Legolas and the Hulk destroy the entire Greek army." - Penny Arcade

BSG

It can be done on Zarek's turn too, assuming someone deals him the right cards(glares at billytea)

So I'm torn. On the one hand(literally), no one but me can play Quorum cards. On the other, XOing someone to take out the basestar would be good in multiple ways.

Helo, assuming we don't get a dire, get-out-now emergency, can I count on you to XO me next turn?

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

BSG

An XO to Anders would work. If Helo XOs you on his turn, would you be able to do more than Assign Mission Specialist? I know there's a destructive Quorum card but don't remember if you can destroy a basestar with it. Obvs you don't have it right now or you would offer it, but you might draw it.

"...and then Legolas and the Hulk destroy the entire Greek army." - Penny Arcade

BSG

Brutal Force only works on raiders or centurions, not basestars.

Depending on what I draw the first time, I can either play another Quorum card or scout a deck.

Yes! I can xo you on my turn.

BSG

Well, like the man says, might as well jump(not Jump, yet).

I will stay right here and play XO-1 on Gaeta.

Felix, I urge effective use of the make-things-go-boom button!

(Helo, I'm counting on you for next turn.)
