Tory starts the game in the Press Room
You editing bastard.
Fine. I play Mission Specialist on Helo, and draw two Green.
Guys! XOs will let me build up my hand! Which we DESPERATELY NEED right now!
Sometimes when I'm sitting in class... You know, I'm not thinking about class, 'cause that would never happen. I think about kissing you. And it's like everything stops. It's like, it's like freeze frame. Willow kissage.

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

Phew! That was eventful, wasn't it? I mean, it didn't look like it was an emergency at the start of Apollo's turn, but looking back, I think we can all agree that he knew better.
But how did Apollo know better? Seems someone's been telling him some:

Apollo, when you're ready, please post your choice.

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

Frak the skill check. I choose Option 2.

Well that's tricky. Given the way we've been hemorrhaging cards, I'd almost say pick 2 and save them for later.
Also, billytea, didn't Chief send me something?

A couple of other rules questions:
Well, at least we flushed out both Cylons. In this rule set, are there possibility of more? Or is two the maximum?
There's still a hard maximum of only two Cylons. At this point, everyone's loyalty is known.
We need to jump. Is it safe to say, ignore the damage to Pegasus? Having not played with it before, not sure it's ramifications. Loss only happens with excessive damage to G, right?
That is correct. You can lose Pegasus without losing the game.
Back to the (in)action, as Apollo eschews the skill check in favour of just making everyone feel sad. Morale falls to 5. Finally, the jump track advances by 1. That concludes Apollo's Very Eventful Turn. The Chief is up next, and he has opted to draw Treachery. Chief, when you're ready, please post your move and action.

I move to Caprica and play my Super Crisis Card.
Hostage situation, humans! I think, it's a bit cryptic, really.

Guys, Chief Tyrol just wants you all to know that, although you now find yourselves on opposing sides, he enjoyed the camaraderie you all shared on Galactica. In fact, he'd like to take a souvenir with him, if that's ok. The Chief's super crisis is:
Human Prisoner
Skill Check (18 GP)
Usual interrupts: IC, SR, Reckless. Everyone who's not a Cylon, please pass or play. You can also send me COs for the check itself. Anders plays first, the Chief last.

Cripes. Do have any way of passing this? I don't have much to play( Pass on Interrupts) but I can reduce it to 16GP.
