BSG (Ellen)
Sheesh. Well, yeah, this is an emergency if I ever saw one. Good call.
I'm glad I saved it. I was considering declaring a really boring emergency earlier just to use it, but—ironically—it was Adama's turn, so I was afraid Boomer might reveal. Of course, I'm giving her a Cylon turn right now anyway, but this time it's worth it.
I'd say I should activate Command defensively at this point, and if the Admiral would like to XO me, then I could activate it offensively then.
Sounds like a plan.
BSG (Gaeta)
Ok, I
activate Command to launch an RSV into Sector 6, and move it to Sector 1.
Yeah, I agree that it's worth the risk of a revealed Boomer turn.
BSG
There are now two RSVs in Sector 1. Tory is next.
Edit: wait, I have COs from Tory to
Activate the President's Office.
Quorum card sent. Tory, when you're ready, please post whether you play one or draw another.
BSG
The way I see it, more cards are good. Ellen, I'm going to go ahead and
Assign Chief of Staff
to you. That lets me draw two politics and my ability lets me draw two more cards. I feel like we need some more purple so, two of those please, mr GM, sir.
BSG (Lady MacTigh)
It's about time someone gave me a position of power!
BSG
Cards sent. Ellen is now Chief of Staff. Adama is up next. When you're ready, please post your move or action.
BSG (Hey, that's me!)
I
activate command to attack the Raiders, one at a time until destroyed, with one of the RSVs in Sector 1, four times.
Go get 'em, kids!
BSG
That's an XO-2 Adama played, and Gaeta unleashes
firestorm!
Viper 1: 4. Hit!
Viper 2: 2. Miss.
Viper 3: 7. Hit!
Viper 4: 8. Hit!
One raider remains. For Boomer's action, she remains where she is and draws a second super crisis.
That concludes the State of Emergency. Let's see what Boomer left for you:
Thirty Three
1 Cylon Attack
Clearly, however, this can't be an emergency, as that's over. First, the sole remaining raider activates and returns fire:
Raider: 8. Viper destroyed!
No one plays an EM; the result stands.
That concludes Ellen's turn. Gaeta has opted to draw 1Y/1G. Mr Gaeta, when you're ready, please post your move and action.
