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

If we end up with someone in the medical center, we can just XO them out, like sickbay, is that right? Are there other potential New Caprica-y effects?

Aside from location, Sickbay and the Medical Centre are essentially the same, from a human player's perspective. (It differs in that a Cylon can wind up there too, if executed, but that's about it.) If a player winds up in the Medical Centre and is XO'd out before their turn, there is no further effect.

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

BSG (Tor Johnson)

Option 2 sounds OK. I am planning to xo Adama but it depends on my card draw.

note: I love having a soundtrack!

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

BSG (Gaeta the decider)

Okay, I choose Option 2, sending Ellen to the Med Center on the premise that her beau will sweep in and save her. I also choose to evacuate the ship to Sector 6.

Yeah, I need to be patched up after all this facepunching. Tires a girl out.

All is as Gaeta commands. Except possibly the advancing raiders. That concludes Gaeta's turn. Tory's cards are going out. Tory, when you're ready, please post your move and action.

fine. I'll do it myself.

I move to the Shipyard and prep a civilian ship for departure.

Tory prepares a ship. There's been a lot of preparing being done lately. Prepping ships, prepping civilians, preparing for a fight - ironic then that Tory's crisis leaves you totallly unprepared. It is:

Centurion Ambush
Skill Check (7 PR)

Possible interrupts: IC, SR, Reckless. Everyone, please pass or play. You can also send me COs for the check itself. Adama plays first, Tory last. (I've noticed the number of COs drop off lately, and would especially encourage those players playing early into the check to send them.)

Unfortunately my fellow committee members are off on a bender and I am unable to launch an investigation at this time.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

BSG (Gaeta)

Okay, I can reckless us up if we want. This is a low number check, but purple and red are not strong colors for what we draw, yes? So it might be a good time? And/or I could add blue into the mix if that would help?
