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

Six discards a Repair 1. Baltar's cards are going out. Dr Baltar, when you're ready, please post your move and action.

Administrative note: Baltar's draw exhausted the Politics deck. I've reshuffled the discards.

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

BSG (Newly Admiral Dee)

We have to last for two more jump icons. It will take two Raider activations for Raiders to even reach the civvies, so we have some breathing room. I would say we want to damage the basestar, not destroy it. Unfortunately, CIC has too high a chance of actually destroying it, so I was thinking Weapons Control.

Unless Starbuck has an FT/MF combo that would allow her to clear off some Raiders, I think she should stay where she is.

If we jump to New Caprica without releasing Tigh, does he start in Detention?

No, anyone in the Brig gets released and starts in Resistance HQ.

BSG (Dee)

Well, well, well! I kind of like that plan. Save us some cards. Assuming I can choose a Destination that gets us there.

Let the record show that Dee wants to keep the former Admiral locked up until the Cylons can break him out. And is quite possibly fitting Tigh for an iron mask.

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

BSG (Tigh)

Hey! uh... that seems sensible.

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

BSG (Good Doctor)

Um, I know that sounds good in theory, but Dee has been driving hard lately. I'm a bit paranoid our new Admiral is using Jedi mind tricks to convince us to do Cylon things. I therefore MOVE: none.

My first Action: Use my OPG ability to check our new admiral credentials.

My second action will wait until I see what cards she has.

(I mean, I know Tigh is a drunk, but to keep him in the Brig... When we need as many cards to pass checks... I dunno. Sounds toasterly)

You only have one action. I'll confirm that you want to spend it checking Dee before I send you her loyalties.

I thought if I don't move, I get two actions.
