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

billytea, Gaeta no longer can reroll JUMPS now that he's revealed, right?

That is correct. Revealed Cylons lose all character abilities and weaknesses.

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.

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

Holy crap, I'm glad I played my card. I forgot about Iron Will. Suck it, Cylons!

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.

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.

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

BSG

Wow! What a ride. Glad I went all in. Glad we all did. I'm proud of my crew. Well except for that frakker who gave the execution order on Zarek. That guy's a jerk.

Wasn't that a lovely speech? Morale rises by 1 as the fleet remembers that the ex-President was a violent terrorist, but it's ok because he's dead. In fact, the Cylons were so moved, they wanted to get a better seat for it. Anders' crisis is:

Besieged
Cylon Attack

I'll get the full details out when I can, but first, there are 2 vipers going in Sector 6. Apollo, do you want to AVP one of them? If so, please post your choice of action. There are also 4 raiders going in Sector 6, who activate immediately (after Apollo's AVP). I'll ask the pilots to send me COs for playing EMs.

Frakking hell, we need to jump out of here ASAP!

I AVP a Viper in Sector 6 and use my CAG OPG to activate the motley crew of RSVs in Sector 6 to fire on the Raiders six times.

Take 'em out, nuggets! You all get one shot, and the two I like best get to go again.

BSG

FRAKKIT NOT NOW!

Apollo, if you manage to take out all the raiders in less than 6 shots, I recommend moving an RSV to Sector 1 to cover the civvies there.

(I really hope G-bot doesn't have Fleet Mobilization.....)

If I get an XO on my turn I'll have someone Push The Button; if not, Helo can do it on his and we'll get the reroll.
