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

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.

Boy, we caught a break from Destiny there. And HAH, I knew G-bot had a high Blue.

Pass on Interrupts

I have passes from everyone. Hurried coordinates are passed out to the rest of the fleet:

Die roll: 2. Fail. I have COs from Helo to use his reroll:

Reroll: 5. Fail. Population falls by 3.

It's come at a cost, but the fleet has made the jump. Destinations are going out. As Helo is Mission Specialist, he may choose from three options. Helo, when you're ready, please post your choice.

but wait, I was going to use my SP on the second one.

edit: If I had known I could apply it to both I would have played it on the first roll.

edit to the edit: ugh you guys there are some inhospitable rocks on the long range scanners.

The fleet reaches 8 Distance. One more jump will win the game for the humans! But first, you have to navigate the perils of... nap-time? Helo's crisis is:

Sleep Deprivation
Admiral's Choice

Admiral Agathon, when you're ready, please post your choice.

After the last few turns, I think we ALL need a nap.

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

BSG

It's nice to get a jump icon! It looks like it's best to take a nap, Helo. One of us should be able to XO you out.
