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

BSG (Gaeta)

Ugh, Scar. I guess I move to Command and activate it to move the RSV in Sector 5 to Sector 4, and the RSV in Sector 6 to Sector 1.

RSVs moved, but the people are not reassured. Gaeta's crisis is:

Admiral's Choice

Admiral Adama, when you're ready, please post your choice.

I choose OPTION 2.

Food and Morale drop by 1, the jump track advances, Scar twiddles his thumbs. (He has thumbs, ok? He demanded them so he could say "Who has two thumbs and viper kills in the double digits? THIS GUY!" Plus, it means he has double digits.)

That concludes Gaeta's turn. That was quick. Tory's cards are going out. President Foster, when you're ready, please post your move and action.

(PS: we're also awaiting a discard from Ellen, who is over her hand limit.)

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

BSG (Ellen)

I go back in time and discard CP-1.

Scar! At least it's only Scar. We should be able to avoid him until we jump. Maybe.

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

BSG (Tory! Tory! Tory!)

Hmm. Who to XO? Anybody with, say perhaps a scouting mission in mind? I figure my staying put is the best option, I can continue to receive XOs to work the quorum. I can also launch a scout myself but if I XO one of youse you get an extra action as well.

I'm open to other suggestions as well.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

BSG (Gaeta)

Well, I could scout. We are getting low on our raptors to risk, though. And I don't have anything particularly interesting to do with the second action. I could also move to Pegasus and repair CIC so that we'd have that back in our arsenal. But it would require a move, so we wouldn't get the benefit of the double action. And it wouldn't go directly after Scar, that would have to wait for another turn, and perhaps another raider activation would occur in the meanwhile.
