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

BSG

If I could help a lot I'd say go for the skill check. If I had an SP I'd say go for the die roll. Ugh that fail effect sucks! Sorry I'm not more helpful with the suggestions.

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

Inspire me: 6 + 2 = 8. Pass!

Dammit! Overinspired!

Whew, useless Raider activation and jump prep!!

Except I'm not sure about the crisis. Does anyone have an SP? It's a pretty high check, and it may be worth taking a chance. I could help a lot on the check, though. How do others feel? Can we pass the check? I feel like we've been doing a lot of YGP checks lately.

No SP, sorry. If we go for the check, pass on interrupts.

I could play an IC but that means less yellow to contribute.

Oh, is that so?

I choose Option 1. Tory, please play your IC. I play last, and I can bat clean-up.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

BSG (Gaeta)

Okay, so I'm gonna go out on a limb and say bombs are bad, we don't like bombs. I play a CP2 and an LS1.

I'm also gonna be springing the bossman on my turn: I think I've got an aspirin or something around here somewhere, and he needs to get back to work. So if the Admiral would like to leave CO's, he can do so.

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

BSG

Whoa there, Felix. We need everyone to declare interrupts first.

...Ok, I have COs from everyone else. They all pass. Let's start.

Destiny: Launch Scout 2, Calculations 3
Gaeta: Consolidate Power 2, Launch Scout 1
Tory:
Adama:
Boomer:
Ellen:

Running tally: 5 - 3 = 2. Fail. Tory is up next. Everyone else can send me COs.

I'm confused. Isn't the check YGP? I think 5-3=2 (unfortunately)
