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

BSG (Boom Boomer)

I will move to the Occupation Authority

and

punch Fiddy not unlike this dude.

Pass on interrupts.

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 passes on interrupts.

Die roll: 7. Hit! Boomer's love affair with face-punching continues. And yet, the Centurions keep coming. Is this the right way to go about it? Boomer's crisis is:

Second Thoughts
Skill Check (9 YG)

Possible interrupts: IC, SR, Reckless. Everyone, please pass or play.

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

BSG (President Jailbird)

Pass on interrupts and OH MY GODS CAN WE GET ME OUT OF DETENTION ALREADY??

Probably not, but we can try.

BSG (Boomeriffic)

Ooh I really want to pass this but I don't draw those colors.

I have a couple ways to help but they are both reckless. Thoughts?

BSG (President Jailbird)

Do it! Most Reckless spikes involve Cylon ships and stuff, which won't do anything down here. The worst they can do is make us draw some Treachery.

Scientific Research would not go amiss. Starbuck just drew Blue.

Problem is, if Cain can't help a LOT, we'll actually need help from Destiny to overcome Starbuck and Dee. I've only got one card to play.

BSG (Boomer)

Well I think If I wiggle this bit over here I might be able to help you squeeze out between the bars, Prez.

I play Jury Rigged-1 to reduce the check by 4.

OH I LIKE THAT ONE A LOT. WELL DONE BOOMER.

If I get out, go ahead and move me back to OA.

Orders from Dee: she plays 1 card. Cain is up next.

BSG

Administrative note: Destiny's play into this check reduced it to 6 cards. I've refilled and reshuffled it.

I have orders for everyone.

Second Thoughts: 9 YG

Destiny: 2 cards
Roslin: 1 card
Dee: 1 card
Cain: 2 cards
Starbuck: 1 card
Boomer: 0 cards

Cards played:

Consolidate Power 2
Iron Will 0
Executive Order 2
Declare Emergency 4
Declare Emergency 5
By Your Command 1
By Your Command 1

Tally: 13 - 2 = 11. Pass! Roslin has been busted out of stir. Per CO, Boomer moves her to the Occupation Authority. However, that's not the end of it. THis check was Reckless, which means the By Your Commands take effect. No raiders or heavy raiders to activate; but we can activate Occupation Forces, no problem. This is a special occasion, getting an OF through a BYC, let's make it something classy. Sebastian appears at the OA. He doesn't stay there though, as the crisis card held both an OF activation and a jump icon. Sebastian heads to Breeders Canyon; the jump track moves one away from Galactica's return.

That almost concludes Boomer's turn. Two pieces of business remain. First, Boomer, you still have 12 cards in hand, and must discard two cards. When you're ready, please post your choice of discard. Second, your Recon is going out. When you're ready, please post whether to put it on the top or the bottom of the deck.

Moving on. President Roslin, when you're ready, please post your move and action.
