Thrive to spite them

BSG Cally

So I gotta get out of this hanger when my turn comes around - any ideas where I would be useful?

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

BSG (Tigh)

Can you make it to Sector 4?

BSG (Starbuck)

Well, if we take damage between now and then, you're probably our best option for fixing it And, of course, if someone needs to be shot in the face, that's all you. Barring those eventualities, maybe Main Batteries would be a good place to hang out?

Although if things get quiet (which doesn't seem likely but it could happen) loading up on cards via the Research Lab or Press Room can be a good idea.

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

BSG

I now have everyone's orders.

Informing the Public: 7 YG

Destiny: 2 cards
Dee: 1 card
Roslin: 1 card
Cally: 0 cards
Starbuck: 0 cards
Tigh: 1 card
Six: 1 card
Baltar: 1 card

Let's see how you went.

Consolidate Power 2
Preventative Policy 4
Executive Order 2
Declare Emergency 3
Declare Emergency 4
Declare Emergency 5
Calculations 3

Tally: 20 - 3 = 17. Pass! Baltar may check the loyalty card of one other player, and has chosen to check Starbuck. (He requested that I post: "The logic being, she checked the Admiral. So we want to make sure she is telling the truth.") The card is being sent now.

Next, the raiders activate. One of them fires at the RSV in Sector 2:

Die roll: 6. Viper damaged! The raider's compatriot moves to join it.

Finally, the jump track advances. That concludes Baltar's turn. Dee's cards are going out now. Dee, when you're ready, please post your move and action.

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

BSG (Dee-fensive)

Sadly, Starbuck, human or not, I don't have the authority to order you out of Sickbay, but I do have a knack for Comms, so I will stay here and activate Comms.

Civvies A and B? Civvies A and B? This is Dee. You may have noticed we're under attack. Sort of. Yes, I care about Hotdog. Sort of. Anyway, what's your status? Raiders are closing in.

Ships' details sent. Dee, when you're ready, please post where you would like them to move.

BSG (Dee-fensive)

Hm, maybe I should sacrifice them to the Raiders so we don't have to deal with them on New Caprica. It won't be a huge loss. Oh, uh, sorry, is this still on? Uh, I wasn't talking about you, A and B. Just move to Sector 5 and pretend you didn't hear anything.

BSG

Was that an order? It was in Italics, that's kind of like Bold. If you're Gaeta.

Ok, ships have moved, and Dee has a chance to kick back and relax. By having someone beat the crap out of her. Dee's crisis is:

In The Ring
Skill Check (12 YGP)

Possible interrupts: IC, SR, Reckless. Everyone, please pass or play. You can also send me COs for the check itself. Roslin plays first, Dee last.

BSG (Starbuck the Totally Healthy Human)

Pass on interrupts. I can help a lot.

I'll only be able to help out in the future if someone gets me out of Sickbay. It's going to get awkward if you can't do it, Madame President.

Hey, Jump Icon and no Raiders Activation, nice.
