BSG (Tigh the friendly skies)
I'm thinking an XO to Cally or Starbuck would be awesome. We need to get some protection for those civvies. But if you don't draw an XO Dee can move the civvies on her turn. Perhaps repair a viper or launch a scouting mission?
BSG (Dee-fensive)
I vote Starbuck, as we want her in the sky by her turn anyway.
BSG (Good Doctor De-Damager)
Sorry on the XO, but I can patch that viper up.
MOVE:
Stay where I am at in the Hangar Bay
ACTION:
Play Blue 1 and fix a viper
Now will you guys stop breaking these things!! I gotta run a fleets worth of blood samples. Jeez la weez!
BSG
The viper is repaired. Unfortunately, the good doctor, having moved on from his viper fetish, appears to have become painfully entangled with one of the raptors instead. Baltar's crisis is:
Rescue Mission (A)
Admiral's Choice
Admiral Tigh, when you're ready, please post your choice.
BSG
I get the feeling I may be heading back to sick bay.
Folks, my first time with Pegasus here. I'm thinking it's best she take the hits, but wanted to make sure. Or Do we want to soften the blows and spread the damage around evenly? I seek advice.
BSG (Dee)
Pegasus
is there to be a shield. Also, no one's there, so no one's getting sent to Sickbay because of explosions.
BSG (Tigh)
I feel Baltar and Morale are more replaceable than Fuel and a Raptor. I'll pause to make sure noone disagrees with me strongly.
BSG (Tigh)
That's enough time for protests to have been lodged.
I choose
Option 1
at least we saved that raptor.
BSG
First things first, I neglected to mention that Baltar takes Purple for his Delusional Intuition.
Baltar's pleas that the raptor be sacrificed "to make it look like an accident" go unheeded. He bears the brunt of the extrication process. When news of how he landed in Sickbay spreads, Morale drops.
Next, the basestar activates, possibly outraged at the abuse of innocent machinery:
Die roll: 5. Hit!
Baltar has left COs for Pegasus to be damaged.
Pegasus CIC
is hit.
Finally, the jump track advances. That concludes Baltar's turn. Dee's cards are going out. Dee, when you're ready, please post your move and action.
