You know, with the exception of one deadly and unpredictable midget, this girl is the smallest cargo I've ever had to transport. Yet by far the most troublesome. Does that seem right to you?

Our wings are not tired

I'll go along with a vote to TANK.

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

BSG

For the moment, I'll operate on the premise that we only need the human votes. The check is Tanked. Destiny reveals:

Executive Order 1
Sabotage 3

Tally: 1 - 3 = -2. Fail! Each player must now discard one random skill card. Discards are:

Starbuck: Scout for Fuel 6
Tigh: Declare Emergency 4
Six: Guts and Initiative 2
Baltar: Consolidate Power 1
Dee: Repair 2
Roslin: Iron Will 0
Cally: Repair 2

Next, the basestar launches a heavy raider, but no one cares because the FTL Drive is now ready to JUMP! Destinations are being sent to the Admiral. Admiral Tigh, when you're ready, please post your choice.

Administrative note: the last check reduced Destiny to 6 cards. I've replenished the deck and reshuffled it.

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

BSG (Tigh)

Hey look! People! We've found A Civilian Convoy.

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

BSG (Dee-spondent)

FRAK IT ALL WE REALLY NEED THAT FUEL CARD AND THE REPAIR CARDS.

But with a -2 Destiny, it would have been close. We might could have made it, I don't know. Actually, given the cards I see, I know we could have made it, at least close enough for Iron Will to save us. Frakkity frak. Thanks a lot, Destiny. You laugh in our faces.

We should have gone for it, but we had no way of knowing Destiny wasn't going to be too bad this time.

Oh, look, the Admiral decided to turn my sadness into Fuel, bringing me one step closer to KILLING MYSELF.

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

BSG (The sad Doctor)

Not sure which hurts more, the star card from Starbuck, or those lovely Repairs. Ouch. I was afraid of that (and said as much). Random is a bitch, and she bit our ankles hard this time. Hope the destination is a good one.

This Destination includes a choice - the Admiral may choose to lose 1 Morale to gain 1 Fuel. The Admiral has made that choice.

Meanwhile, Distance increases to 5, which means we have reached the Sleeper Phase! New loyalty cards have gone out. That concludes Six' turn. As Baltar starts his turn in Sickbay, he may draw just one card. He has opted for Blue. Card going out now.
