I sure do, but I'd like to get the Comms intel before leaving my post.
I think I like the nuke plan. Things are getting hairy out there.
True. I wouldn't want to use both of them, though. We should try to save at least one for the Final Battle. But that's fine since Tigh is in Weapons Control for a second action.
BSG
I XO-1 Tigh.
BSG (Tigh, Destroyer of Basestars)
I will not move and launch a Nuke into Sector 1.
BSG
I have COs from Starbuck to play a Strategic Planning 3.
Die roll: 6 + 2 = 8. Both basestars destroyed! Tigh has left COs: Play a Major Victory 2. I have COs from Dee to play a Strategic Planning 4.
Die roll: 2 + 2 = 4. Fail.
For Tigh's second action, he has left COs to play a Launch Scout 1. Everyone passes on SPs this time.
Die roll: 8. Pass!
The top card of the crisis deck is being sent. Admiral Tigh, when you're ready, please post whether to put it on the top or the bottom of the deck.
BSG (eagle-eye Tigh)
What do I have to do to cheer you people up?
bury that crisis, please
BSG (Dee-lighted)
Nice shooting, Tigh and Starbuck! You make a good team! Wait, this is completely non-canonical.
Boo, Major Victory fail.
Die roll: 8. Pass!
Does that mean we blow up the entire Crisis Deck?
BSG (Starbuck)
Well, MY morale is raised. Two basestars with one nuke! BAD ASS!
BSG
Boo, Major Victory fail.
Right? You blew up TWO BASESTARS. What does it take to impress this jaded MTV generation?
Does that mean we blow up the entire Crisis Deck?
Yes! All the soft and squishy crisis cards, anyway. Fortunately, the attack cards are made of sterner stuff, so that's all that's left in the deck now.
Meanwhile! Roslin is experiencing some Religious Visions. (We remembered this time!) President Roslin, when you're ready, please post your choice of crisis.
BSG
Roslin has chosen, and the Admiral is pissed. (Pissed off, to be clear.) He destroyed TWO BASESTARS, and no one cares! Obviously someone in the crew has been insufficiently enthusiastic in describing his basestar-busting prowess, and he's going to get to the bottom of it. Roslin's crisis card is:
Interrogation
Admiral's Choice
Admiral Tigh, when you're ready, please post your choice.
BSG (Dee-fective)
Geez, Sickbay's getting crowded. I would volunteer for the Loyalty check, but we still have civvies in danger and not a lot of protection. Sending Six to Sickbay would be fun. She doesn't draw that many cards anyway, AND we don't really need to worry about waiting for Tigh to XO her since she can't, like, Reveal. Although she could jump back to the Resurrection Ship and do some damage, if she were so inclined. Which I don't think she is.
Actually, Tigh might be the best choice. We don't need him in Weapons Control now, and Starbuck trusts him enough to XO him on her turn.
