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

BSG

Absent an xo I would probably move to comms and hope to find that the imperiled ships are decoys.

Not an option, I'm afraid; Jammed Assault prevents Communications from being used until after your next jump.

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

BSG (T-t-t-Tory)

Scary, but I'm agreeing with Ellen again. Unless... I dunno do you want to move to Pegasus Main Batteries? The heavy raiders contain boarding parties, so we just have to worry about the raiders in Sector 2 right now, right? I could help with a stretegic plan.

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

BSG (Ellen)

Oh, Main Batteries is a decent idea to clear out that sector of Raiders, actually.

Our wings are not tired

BSG

Sorry for the delay. So yes, I do have an XO that I can use, and I'm thinking I should move to weapons control so that someone can give me an XO to take some shots at the base star.

Sounds wise.

I can XO Gaeta, it seems to be the wisest.

I XO-1 Gaeta.

Mr Gaeta has left COs for just such an eventuality:

Action 1: Activate Command, launch an RSV into Sector 5 and Sector 6
Action 2: Activate Command again; move RSV from Sector 5 to Sector 4, move RSV from Sector 6 to Sector 1

Unfortunately, he was too late to save the good ship Krispy Kreme; and SS Dunkin Donuts is under threat too! Adama's crisis is:

President Foster, when you're ready, please post your choice.

Well played, Mr. Gaeta! Coverage in all sectors! Hope Boomer is full of EMs.

Hey, Jump Prep! I say Option 2 is better. Food is our lowest resource.

Also, I would not be averse to jumping early this time, as we have a lot of civvies threatened. But we do get a free Scout from Boomer, so...actually, we're in a similar position. If she gets jump prep and then assures a jump prep for me, we can wait for the auto-jump; otherwise, I'd be tempted to pull the trigger if we're only risking 1 Pop. Especially if a Raider activation could destroy civvies, which it could unless Boomer does something majorly heroic. Actually, wait! Boomer! I KNOW YOU CAN DO SOMETHING GOOD. We will be safe on Boomer's turn. Get out there to Sector 1.

The sacrifices I make for my people. I choose Option 2 and discard CP-1, CP-1.
