Administrative note: Anders' card draw exhausted the Tactics deck. I've reshuffled the discards.
BSG
Poseidon's middle fin, what a frakup. At least we passed.
billytea, Gaeta no longer can reroll JUMPS now that he's revealed, right?
Anders, if you don't get an XO, I recommend you
push the button.
We've got too many civvies in the air, if G-bot throws a Cylon Attack at us our population could sinkhole.
BSG
billytea, Gaeta no longer can reroll JUMPS now that he's revealed, right?
That is correct. Revealed Cylons lose all character abilities and weaknesses.
BSG
There was that SR - which incidentally was worth 2 points and made the difference between prisonertude and no prisonertude.
holy frak. Glad I did that! Wow. I thought for sure some toaster was gonna strip me of all my cards and take me hostage. This is destiny, humans! This was our Waterloo. Our Midway. Now, we just gotta make a pretty 2 distance jump.
I
MOVE
nowhere, staying put here in weapons, just in case.
My
ACTION
Is to play XO-2 on President Foster.
BSG
Holy crap, I'm glad I played my card. I forgot about Iron Will. Suck it, Cylons!
bsg
Don't get cocky, kid. We still got a ways to go.
BSG
I
Play Assign Chief of Staff on Anders, and Draw two Green.
Longshot, you are now required to wear a suit and tie under your jock-smock. You also have the power to make Yellow positive for a single crisis.
I then deliver a
Eulogy and draw two Purple.
We must remember Tom not only at the moment of his death, but as who he was throughout his life. Both as the terrorist who inflicted fear and the leader who strove to overcome it. Both as the rebel who struggled against us and the hero who fought for us. And if there is any lesson to be learned, I say it is this: Fear must be fought and overcome or it will destroy us more surely than any enemy we face.
BSG
Um. Ahhh. OK. Not good at this poli stuff. ::adjusts tie nervously:: Just don't make me do any press conferences. I suck at those. Unless I'm in a whirlpool talking about Pyramid. Then I'm not so bad. Not good, but not so bad.
