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

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

BSG

It's like that, is it? Or like this:

In the Ring: 12 YGP

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

Cards played:

Support the People 2
Major Victory 1
Declare Emergency 4
At Any Cost 5
Launch Scout 1
Launch Scout 2
Launch Scout 2
Strategic Planning 3
Critical Situation 5
By Your Command 1

Tally: 25 - 1 = 24. Pass! Morale increases by 1. Why? Well, Dee has been saved from a beating; however, that BYC in the check triggers the Consequence. Dee has opted to give Baltar a severe face-punching, and he lands in Sickbay to riotous applause.

The BYC was sufficient to trigger the Consequence, but the check was not Reckless, so it does not activate raiders. Instead, the jump track advances by 1 to finish Dee's turn. Roslin's cards are going out. President Roslin, when you're ready, please post your move and action.

OK, from a Cylon location, I can play into Skill Checks, but I can't use cards for their text. What about Interrupts?

'cause given the way we keep overshooting, if I can use ICs from here, it might be best for now if I stayed here, mined the Politics deck, and kept Scouting crises.

No, that too is using a card for its text. If you infiltrate the fleet, however, you count as human for most purposes, including being able to play cards for their effect.

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

BSG (Sick doc)

Wait? Why I am I here? I feel perfectly fine. Oh I can get meds? Oh. Well. I suppose that's OK.

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

BSG (Starbuck)

If Sickbay is getting short on beds I am absolutely ready to get out of here!

Nice shiner, Gaius.
