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

BSG (Cally frakking ballistic)

yah I can't help at all. Vote to TANK.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

BSG (Dee Vious)

Nice one, sis.

I can't help, either.

Sure would be a shame if something happened to, say, the Airlock, wouldn't it?

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

BSG (What's the Tory, Evening Glory?)

Dee makes an excellent point. The Cylons can easily trigger the Consequence, so we might as well get something out of it. Treacherous TANK. Best of luck, Cally.

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

BSG

Everyone, remember to put in COs for your play into a Treacherous tank. (Due to Cally's weakness, she cannot play a single card.)

Cain passes on interrupts too, and since Treachery is in the wind, we'll be going through the check. Cally is up first.

Fire All Missiles: 22 PR

Destiny: 2 cards
Cally: (0 or 2+ cards)
Tory: (COs received)
Dee: (COs received)
Cain:
Starbuck: (COs received)

Starbuck finishes up with 1 card. Let's find out how it went down:

Trust Instincts 0
Broadcast Location 1
Broadcast Location 1
God's Plan 2

Tally: 0 - 4 = -4. Fail! However, the Trust Instincts kicks in. Why? Because, well, it wasn't enough to fail the check, and now Destiny wants to taunt you a little too. It adds:

Strategic Planning 3
Maximum Firepower 3

Tally: 6 - 4 = 2. Fail, positively!

With three cards in there that have a skill check effect, the consequence is well and truly triggered. I have COs from Starbuck to damage each ship once. That means a total of two civvies destroyed, 1 Galactica damage and 1 Pegasus damage. Let's count it up.

Civvie 1: 2 Population
Civvie 2: 1 Population, 1 Morale

Damage - Galactica: -1 Fuel
Damage - Pegasus: Airlock

Oh, man. That could hardly have gone worse for you. Mercifully, that concludes Starbuck's turn. Cally, you've just landed in Sickbay, which means you may draw only one card on your turn. Which colour would you like?

BSG (Tory Potter)

Well, looks like Destiny would have triggered the Consequence anyway, but...holy frak, that was not a nice Crisis. And, really, REALLY? Only ONE hit to Pegasus, and it was the Airlock??

Cally, get thee to the Armory. I suggest you draw Purple and hope for an SP. START SHOOTING.
