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

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

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.

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

I will leave that destination on top, please.

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.

If our next jump is to New Caprica, we can make it on 2 fuel... wait that's not right. Not sure how much I can reveal about the card I scouted but 2 fuel would not be enough.

BSG (Taura Foslin)
Actually, we can't take the Fuel hit. Because we have 3 Fuel. The best we can do right NOW is a Destination that only takes 2 Fuel. We can't use 3 Fuel, or else we lose.
It's possible we can only do this in two 1 Fuel jumps. I don't know if we can last another jump cycle. It'll be rough. Of course, if neither Destination takes less than 3 Fuel, than we lose.
So yeah. Option 1 is the only option.

To assist with planning, the destination deck contains a total of 34 cards. 11 of them are less than 2 distance (and all cost less than 2 Fuel). 11 destinations cost at least 2 Fuel, or cost Population as well. 12 destinations give at least 2 distance for less than 2 Fuel (and without reducing Population).

Food and Morale drop by 1. Next, the basestar takes a final shot:
Die roll: 2. Miss.
Finally, the jump track advances, and reaches autojump! Destinations have been sent to the Admiral. Admiral Cain, when you're ready, please post your choice.
