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.

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

BSG

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

either way I'll play

CP-1 StP-2 and IW-0

I will that nothing bad happens no matter what.

BSG

New tally is 8 - 3 = 5. Fail. Thanks to the Iron Will, you will achieve "no effect" if you reach 9 or more; if you reach 0 or less instead, you will lose 1 Morale.

Adama is up next.

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

BSG (Ellen)

Strong will, Tory! Now we only need to hit 9. If we hadn't opened up an investigation, we could have overplayed the shit out of this check.

Our wings are not tired

BSG

I play a DE3 and an LS1

Should I just save my cards? I mean, the worst that can happen is Ellen is a Cylon and we all find out in plenty of time to airlock her, right?

BSG (Ellen, a Handbasket)

Save your cards, Boom-Boom. Even if I were a Cylon, my card draw is positive for this check (besides Treachery), so I wouldn't be able to spike it enough.
