BSG (Felix the Cat)
Yeah, it's early enough that the Cylon info doesn't necessarily tell us that much. It's either good news or bad news! But the way it shook down, it's probably not in between. Although it could be! That's the problem!
Okay, I
move to Command
preparatorily-like, and I have an XO. Who wants to offer me the best chance to save humanity? I would normally be interested in seeing what Ms. Presidente has to offer, but won't since she's directly after me. Who else? Admiral? More potshots at the basestar? I suppose Boomer should stay in place to defend the inevitable future attack. What about you, Ellen, feel like getting out of your bathrobe and slippers and leaving the Quarters?
BSG (Tigh Fight 'Er)
While I would love to get out of bed, I think taking more potshots at the basestar would be prudent in case we get attacked again. Then Boomer can do clean-up until we jump.
BSG (Tory! Tory! Tory!)
I agree with Mrs. Tigh. Did I just say that? Must check for oxygen leak in my quarters.
BSG (Okay, torytorytory made me guffaw, Gaeta the Gato)
Okeydoke. We will leave Ellen in the linens, and let all the work be done by her big strong mans. I
play XO-1 on the purportedly human Admiral.
Shoot 'em up, sir!
BSG (Bill me later)
Do I have to do everything around here? Isn't there an enlisted something or other to aim this thing and push the button?
Time to
FIRE on the Basestar.
BSG (Tory! Tory! Tory! was pretty great, Tigh agree)
Pass on interrupts. Oh, who am I kidding, I don't even draw the right colors for interrupts. Plus, I'm sleepy. Shoot well, dear.
BSG
I have all the passes.
Die roll: 6. Hit!
Damage:
Critical Hit!
The basestar is destroyed!
Admiral, you have one more action remaining on your XO. When you're ready, please post your orders.
BSG (Ellen)
Wow, nice job, Admiral! Er, guess maybe you can launch a Scout? Susan is ready to find us some jump prep. Or fire on a Raider, if nothing else. Or Boomer, just to keep her on her toes.
BSG (Bill "Destroyer of Basestars" Adama)
I will
FIRE on a raider.
BSG
Adama shoots!
Die roll = 4. Hit!
He scores!
Raider destroyed!
THE CROWD GOES WILD!!
Gaeta's crisis is:
Riots
Admiral's Choice
Admiral Adama, when you're ready, please post how you wish to direct your exuberant fans.
