Heh. And the fail effect is to lose morale, so if it's 0 or less we'd lose 2 morale?

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

BSG

Yeah, but that's nigh impossible. The most Boomer can spike with is 6, so we should be safe unless we have a very angry and powerful Cylon among us.

Glad to see Destiny is back on our side, though!

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

That is correct. And then we'd brig the Admiral. It's win-win! For me, I mean. It's win-win for me.

Boomer buzzes the investigation with a fly-by, disrupting the proceedings. I have COs from Ellen and Gaeta, which brings us to:

Destiny: Iron Will 0, Launch Scout 2
Boomer: Run Interference 4
Ellen: Consolidate Power 1, Consolidate Power 1
Gaeta: Consolidate Power 2, Repair 1
Tory:
Adama:

Running tally: 7 - 4 = 3. Fail. Tory is up next.

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

Our wings are not tired

BSG

I play LS-1, LS-1, LS-1, CS-3.

That should push us over the limit.

Final tally is 14. The check passes! Admiral Adama, you may check a random loyalty card belonging to any other player. When you're ready, please post which player you would like to check.

I don't have strong suspicions on anyone really. Everyone has been playing cards into our checks, Ellen has had multiple chances to totally screw us with XOs to move ships around and she hasn't, so I'm not checking her card. It's between Tory and Gaeta, so I'll flip a coin and choose to check Gaeta's Loyalty Card.
