Caprica Six is first to play. There is no IC on this check, so everyone, post the number of cards you play and email me the details.
BSG (Ladies man brainiac)
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!

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?

BSG (The Good Dr)
Wow, maybe my inspirational speech was a bit TOO inspiring. We kicked that cards ASS! Let's try and get IC's in the future. It really helps keep a lid on the over-shootin'. Granted, we are all at reduced cards with the start of the game and all. But something to think about.
All in all, a rather impressive way to start the game!
BSG (Tigh)
Can't help with the ICs as I don't draw yellow. But yes, I find them quite helpful.
I'm feeling pretty good about being on Team Human at the moment. I even think Six is on our side, seeing as both cards she held were positive for the check.
BSG (Handle With Kara)
Even Destiny wanted us to be closer to jumping, at least a a little. That's always nice.
Ah, time to kick back and relax in sickbay. What? No cigars? But Doc Cottle smokes like a chimney!
Ciggies are fine. Cigars will kill ya. Sheesh, I thought everyone knew that.
Cigars don't kill people, cylons kill people.
