I can only help a tiny bit with that skill check. Maybe take the Morale hit if we don't want to risk it?
I'm not sure how old he is, but I heard him use the word 'newfangled' one time, so he's gotta be pretty far gone.

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

Good shootin', Admiral! But I can only help a little with the check, which seems to be a common sentiment. Not sure if we can pass it, although it would be great to. No jump prep yet!

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

I can help us to not fail if we go for the skill check. It sure would be nice if we could pass it. This would be a good time for Tigh (or someone) to say something like "I got this, we are totally passing this check".
Looks like I'll probably be in sick bay soon. I'd rather not be stuck there for too long, people with upcoming turns. In case you were wondering.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir

Given the number of cards we all have, I doubt any white knights swooping in. Given that, I can help a fair amount. I can also help those folks singing the blues to sing major chords (wink wink... Ya get what I'm saying).
That to say, I'd hate to take another hit to morale, let's go with option 1.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
BSG (Tigher than a kite)
I can help and it appears we want to go for it. I choose option 1 and 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.

Yes, and it's more than 11 YG, blue now counts positive. Let's pass this. It's the only way we get the precious jump icon.
11 YG-B!

I have COs from everyone else. The play:
Mysterious Guide:
11 YG
Destiny:
2 cards
Six:
1 card
Baltar:
2 cards
Dee:
1 card
Roslin:
1 card
Cally:
2 cards
Starbuck:
1 card
Tigh:
3 cards
And what were these cards?
Consolidate Power 1
Consolidate Power 2
Preventative Policy 3
Iron Will 0
Executive Order 1
Executive Order 1
Executive Order 2
Executive Order 2
Executive Order 2
At Any Cost 3
Declare Emergency 3
Scientific Research 4
Strategic Planning 5
Tally: 24 - 5 = 19. Pass! The jump track advances by 1.
Finally, the raiders activate. There's a juicy target right in front of them, and they open fire on Starbuck:
Raider 1: 8. Viper destroyed! No one plays an EM. The viper is lost. Fortunately, Starbuck managed to eject, and winds up in Sickbay. The second raider now sees its way clear to the civvies, and moves to Sector 2.
That concludes Tigh's turn. Six may draw either 1G/1B or 1G/1T. Six, what would you like to draw?
