Wow. Um, Wasn't expecting this. OK. Wow.
ladies & gentlemen of the fleet, we have a test here. Neither option is great. Given the last round, and losing on morale, I think we should be wary of tanking. But passing and brigging isn't exactly a great thing either.
That said, if we go for it, I can help a bit with the check.

The Gods of Kobol have sent me a vision. A clarifaction. If we pass, Kat isn't required to brig anyone. she MAY brig someone. So, let's go for this! Let's pass it!
BSG (Kat)
Yeah, there's no reason for me to brig anyone at this point, so let's save that Morale. I can help. Let's try not to overplay, though.

A reminder, per secrecy rules, players may state that they played a little or a lot (or high/low, or other binary descriptors); or if playing more than one card, "medium". Additional refinements are not permitted.
aw I didn't think about how sitting out this game means I won't get to follow along with the crisis cards.
:: tacklehugs Laga:: How goes the transcontinental trip?
We made it to Chicago! Now I'm sitting at the computer with a view of the GIANT screen where the boys are playing RDR. I thought something would be lost when the game got blown up so huge but it's actually way better. And the surround sound is so sweet, I'm noticing things I never have before, like you can hear the windmills creak.
sweet! did you take Route 66 all the way to Chi-Town?
Pretty much. I woke up (in the passenger seat) in New Mexico and we were in a very scary snow storm. D kept his cool and soon we were out of it and it was smooth sailing the whole rest of the way. We got to the crater too late but we were able to see the Leaning Tower and Cross of the West in Texas (woop de doo)
Now I'm finding out that Borderlands is possibly even more cool looking on the big screen than RDR.
