I have everyone's play:
Destiny:
2 cards
Helo:
0 cards
Apollo:
0 cards
Chief:
0 cards
Anders:
1 card
Gaeta:
1 card
Tory:
5 cards
Cards played:
Consolidate Power 1
Consolidate Power 1
Consolidate Power 2
Iron Will 0
Declare Emergency 3
Declare Emergency 5
Launch Scout 1
Scientific Research 5
By Your Command 1
Tally: 13 - 6 = 7. Fail!
However, the Iron Will kicks in. As the total was within 4 points of the pass level, the fail effect does not take place. No effect!
Finally, the basestars both spit out some fresh raiders. That concludes Tory's turn. Helo's cards are going out. I have COs from Helo for his turn, coming up in a little while.
BSG
I'm
moving
to FTL to
jump
us the frak out of here.
Remind me again, what are the odds of losing pop without an SP?
BSG
75%. But you get a re-roll.
Also, I'm glad I took out all those Raiders before. If they had activated just now, that wouldn't have been fun.
BSG
75% chance without an SP, 50% chance with one.
BSG
I get a reroll!
edit: absolutely. Good job on those raiders.
BSG
You do!
With the reroll, the chances of Pop loss are 9/16 without an SP, 1/4 with one.
BSG
Ah, wait, Raiders didn't activate just now. They activated in an earlier Crisis, though, so it's still good.
Pass on interrupts.
BSG
Let's get the records up-to-date.

Administrative note: Helo's card draw exhausted the Piloting deck. I've reshuffled the discards.
BSG
Ah, wait, Raiders didn't activate just now. They activated in an earlier Crisis, though, so it's still good.
No, they activated on this crisis. Since there were no raiders on the board, each basestar launched 2 new raiders.
On to business. Helo has moved to FTL Control and hit the button. The die roll to avoid losing Population may be modified by an SP. Everyone, please pass or play.
BSG
Boy, we caught a break from Destiny there. And HAH, I knew G-bot had a high Blue.
