Lee "Apollo" Adama, for the capital crime of the look on your face when we do it being just
hilarious.
and anyway we have to test this Airlock on
someone,
right? - You have been sentenced to a Very Special Episode in Sweeps Week.
As the corpse of Apollo is fired at high velocity towards the basestar, his personal effects are revealed to contain the following:
Investigative Committee 3
Consolidate Power 1
Trust Instincts 0
Maximum Firepower 3
One "YOU ARE NOT A CYLON" loyalty card.
As that last piece of news spreads throughout the fleet, the people slowly realise that there are
not
many copies, and they will never get to execute Apollo ever again. How cheaply we value these pleasures before they're gone.
Morale falls by 1.
The military mind remains steadfastly forward-looking, however, and the position of CAG is filled by
Lieutenant Kara "Starbuck" Thrace.
Starbuck, please accept this welcoming gift of a new Loyalty card. Per the Exodus rules, I have shuffled an extra "YOU ARE NOT A CYLON" card into the deck before dealing.
Finally, two more raiders launch from the basestar, and the jump track advances. That concludes Apolbuck's turn. Cally's cards are going out. Cally, when you're ready, please post your move and action.

I love the smell of airlock in the morning.
BSG (Starbuck)
Well, hello, ladies! Give me just a moment to grieve the attractive yet conflicted Apollo...and we're good! I just feel so fresh and kinda...clean. So good to be with you! I shall chomp on cigars and outbullshit the bullshittiest of you and then unexpectedly grow my hair out at an alarming rate. Now! I jut my chin out with soldierly resolve, and look forward to exhibiting how much better a pilot I am than that guy. Three for four? Yeah, whatever.
BSG (Tory)
Aw, man, we lost an IC.
So an XO to our new Starbuck would be a decent idea. Stupid Raiders! Or start firing on the basestar.
I love the smell of airlock in the morning.
I like how we brought Apollo back to the ship just to execute him. You'd think he would have cottoned to my bad mood and made a break for it.
BSG (Helena)
I prefer to thing that I'd have installed remote eject systems into all the Pegasus Vipers so that I can just execute pilots with the press of a button from Command.
BSG (Callygator)
I would like to get Starbuck in the sky but first I
discard
Establish Network-0
to
move
to Pegasus CIC
so a future XO to me could destroy a basestar.
Then I
play
XO-1 on Starbuck.
May the gods be with us.
BSG (Starbuck)
Ha, yes, watch my badassery as I...okay, actually I can't do very much. My former self was just killed recently, you know. Which makes my former romantic entanglements sort of narratively masturbatory if you ask me which no one did, of course, because no one ever listens to me and I have to earn all my respect.
(Did the canonical Starbuck talk in runons this much? I don't think she did. I think I am totally making this characterization up.)
Anyway, I
hop in a viper, launch out into Sector 6 and move to Sector 1, and then I...
waggle my eyebrows kinda threateningly and then bop around the skies a bit despite a clear and present danger.
BSG (Tory Potter)
As President, I order you to shoot at something, Starbuck! Launching from Hangar Deck gives you one extra action, so you have one action remaining. ARE YOU A PILOT OR NOT?
BSG
Tory is correct, you do have one action remaining thanks to the XO. You may shoot at one of the raiders (or the basestar), or move another sector. Or you may pass. What would you like to do?
