guys, I don't feel so good.
I choose Option 1.
Illyria: We cling to what is gone. Is there anything in this life but grief? Wesley: There's love. There's hope...for some. There's hope that you'll find something worthy...that your life will lead you to some joy...that after everything...you can still be surprised. Illyria: Is that enough? Is that enough to live on?

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

You guys, I have a crazy idea. I mean, Chief has already played his SCC, so the only thing that could frak it up is a particularly bad Crisis (or a bad Crisis card on my turn), but I'm pretty sure this plan will work. Hell, Chief may even be forced to give us a jump icon.
What if on my turn I activate the Engine Room to make sure we get a jump icon, putting the jump track in blue, and then Anders just pulls the trigger on his turn and, uh, we win? We have the Population to spare.

If we were one icon away from blue, I'd say go for it. But we need two. And Any crisis the Chief gives us, the jump icon doesn't count.

We are one icon away from blue. We got a jump icon on Helo's Crisis.

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

With the Pegasus expansion, jump icons from crises drawn by Cylons do count. This is a change to the base game rules. (Cylon ship activation icons still don't have any effect.)

You're two icons away. You only just jumped, the icon on Sleep Deprivation is your first towards the next jump.

Hmm. I still think it's too big a risk. We're basically praying Chief pulls two Jump icon crises. If he doesn't, or if Apollo's crisis puts something in the air he can use with Cylon Fleet, we're heading into Gaeta's Super Crisis before we can jump to Kobol.
I say build up resources now and on Anders' turn so we can survive the Cylons and use the Engine Room next round.

Curses, who knew there was a 0 on the jump track?
I suppose I'll move to Research Lab and XO-2 Helo. Wake up, boy! Do something useful.

Helo, you have received an XO. You may either move and take an action, or not move and take two actions. When you're ready, please post your orders.
