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.
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.
BSG
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.
BSG
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.
BSG
I recommend moving an RSV to Sector 1 to cover the civvies there.
The Raiders are going to be spitting out of the basestar in Sector 5. I should move any free RSVs there to cut them off.
Oh, I think there are only three RSVs since I am piloting one. So everyone, shoot twice!
BSG
So glad I stayed in weapons.
With population the highest, I think we can afford an early jump.
BSG
I am just really afraid for whatever Gaeta has the possibility of doing to us.
BSG
I agree. First we need to survive this activation.
