I can help with this check, and I'd prefer to go for it since I'd have to discard down to 10 cards at the end of this round anyway, and if I'm counting correctly after than XO I still have 14 cards in my hand.
You are counting correctly. Or else I'm counting incorrectly too. It could go either way.
BSG
Yeah, let's go for it. I don't feel particularly suspicious of anyone at this point, but it would be nice to a) not lose morale and b) not introduce any more treachery than necessary into our hands. We've been pretty fortunate with card management this game, so I think it's worthwhile to try to avoid the card loss.
BSG
I choose
OPTION 1
let's go for the check!
BSG
Interrupts, people! IC, SR, Reckless. Everyone, please pass or play.
BSG
Pass! I can help a little. Adama, I figure you're going to want to help a lot to get rid of cards? No need to overplay.
BSG
That is correct. Help if you can but don't overplay.

I started playing Mass Effect 2 which I bought in like, March. Fun game, though sometimes it feels a little too much on rails.
Also, Shepard didn't appear to have taken any training courses on appropriate and inappropriate workplace interactions.

Everyone else passes on interrupts. Destiny repents of her episode of hostility towards the humans:
Destiny:
Iron Will 0, Launch Scout 2
Boomer:
Ellen:
(COs received)
Gaeta:

Tory:
Adama:
Running tally: 2 - 0 = 2. Fail.
Note: Destiny has contributed an Iron Will. If the check fails but is within 4 of the pass level, Iron Will negates the fail effect. It does not, however, grant the pass effect. (If the tally is 0 or less, the IW will cost the fleet 1 Morale.)
Boomer is up next.
BSG
Heh. And the fail effect is to lose morale, so if it's 0 or less we'd lose 2 morale?
