You know, I was going to draw red, but so many of them only apply to when 'you' are piloting a viper I wasn't sure what the chances of drawing something helpful would be.
Yeah, it's a gamble, but I figured that even if I didn't pull an EM, I'd have Red for a check.
BSG
Orders from Mr Gaeta:
choose the check. Tory plays an IC-3. Everyone else passes on interrupts.
Tory plays first into the check:
Destiny:
Guts and Initiative 1, Evasive Manoeuvre 1
Tory:
Adama:
Boomer:
Ellen:
Gaeta:
(COs received)
Running tally: 1 - 1 = 0. Fail.
BSG
Tally is now 7. Adama is next.
BSG
I have COs from Boomer. Current state of play:
Destiny:
Guts and Initiative 1, Evasive Manoeuvre 1
Tory:
Consolidate Power 2, Preventative Policy 5
Adama:
Critical Situation 3
Boomer:
0 cards
Ellen:
Gaeta:
(COs received)
Running tally: 11 - 1 = 10. Pass!
Ellen is next.
BSG
Mr Gaeta plays no cards either. The check passes; Morale increases by 1! I think it was the fireworks that really put it over the top, don't you? What do you mean, no one ordered any fireworks?
Someone
ordered the fireworks.
Basestar 1: 5. Hit!
Basestar 2: 8. Hit!
By CO, Gaeta assigns both hits to Pegasus.
Airlock and Pegasus CIC damaged. Gaeta lands in Sickbay.
That concludes Gaeta's turn. At turn end, Ellen has 11 cards and Gaeta has 12 cards, so they must both discard; I have COs:
Ellen:
Broadcast Location 1
Gaeta:
Trust Instincts 0, Establish Network 0
Tory's cards are going out. President Foster, when you're ready, please post your move and action.
