(PS: we're also awaiting a discard from Ellen, who is over her hand limit.)
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.
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.
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.
BSG
If it doesn't get us an extra turn I'm not sure it's worth using the XO. I'll stay put and
play CP-1
to
draw 2 Red.
BSG
Cards sent. Hey, does Tory actually know how to fly a viper? Maybe she needs some tutoring. Tory's crisis card is:
Mysterious Guide

As this is a current player's choice, Tory's weakness takes effect.
