I did not send her Recon (oops). I'll send it now.
Meanwhile, let's see if Boomer's as good against raiders as she is against Centurions:
Attack 1: 8. Hit!
Attack 2: 1. Miss.
Attack 3: 8. Hit!
There's nothing left to shoot at (you can't shoot at the civvies, Boomer), but for anyone who's interetsed, the fourth roll was also an 8. That series of shots would've destroyed a basestar.
I've sent Boomer's Recon. Boomer, when you're ready, please post whether to put it on the top or the bottom of the deck, and your choice of a second action.
BSG (Boooomer)
I left that card on top and I am going to scout the Destination deck.
BSG
The scouting die roll may be modified by an SP. Everyone, please pass or play.
BSG
I have passes from the others. The die roll:
Die roll: 8. Again. Pass!
Destination is on its way.

Really, now? NOW WE'RE ROLLING ALL EIGHTS? WHERE WERE YOU DURING OUR BOARDING PARTY NIGHTMARE?

Really, now? NOW WE'RE ROLLING ALL EIGHTS? WHERE WERE YOU DURING OUR BOARDING PARTY NIGHTMARE?
Pfft. You got them all, didn't you? And it only took... 22 turns, your OPG, a Quorum card, eight actions and three SPs.
What are you complaining about?!
I think the real victim here is Sergei. He feels so lost now. Armand blames him for the mission failure, you know.
BSG (Boomer)
I will leave that destination on top, please.
BSG
And I thank you for that, because I'd already composed the draft email to the Admiral.
Wasn't that sad news about Sergei? His own followers certainly think so. A heated argument has broken out on twitter with Armand's followers, and it's spilled over into the real world! For her crisis, Roslin has chosen:
Riots
Admiral's Choice
Before Roslin played that PP, this was a no-brainer, and I could simply have made the call that the Admiral chooses to live. Now, here's a real choice there. Admiral Cain, when you're ready, please post your choice.
BSG (President Braaaaaains)
There is a real choice, but, Boomer, you're the one who has an idea of at least one Destination we have to choose from. I'm worried about being able to get to New Caprica on 2 Fuel. Fuel is hard to increase. Food and Morale are easier to increase. Fuel won't be an issue on New Caprica, I don't think, but we need Fuel to get there.
Any thoughts, Boomer? Both choices are bad, but even with my PP, losing Fuel isn't attractive.
