Good point.

I play LS-2, XO-2.

That should take care of it.

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

BSG

It should and it does. Tally: 12 - 0 = 12. Pass!

Now the raiders activate, for their last attempt to do some damage before the fleet slips away. Order doesn't matter.

In Sector 1, the SS Fninkle meets a fiery end. Its contents:

0 Population

In Sector 6, two raiders fire at two RSVs.

Raider 1: 5. Hit!
Raider 2: 1. Miss.

In Sector 4, Apollo heroically makes his stand against nine raiders.

Raider 1: 5. Hit!

The other raiders shuffle around a bit, but to no avail, as the fleet reaches autojump! You leave behind the entire Cylon fleet (every Cylon ship was on the board there), but to which destination? Choices are going out to the Admiral now. Admiral Adama, when you're ready, please post your choice.

Kat, we have apparently jumped right into one of your episodes, and you'll have to do without Starbuck's help.

We arrive at the Mining Asteroid.

The good news is, we have two more working Vipers. The bad news is, Scar just popped up on the DRADIS. Son, I think this is your cue.....

Details of the destination have been sent out. Apollo, this card places a viper in Sector 5 and Sector 6. Do you wish to use your ability to commandeer one of them and take an action?

Another consequence of this destination is that the crisis deck is reshuffled. This is now done.

Thrive to spite them

BSG (Apollo)

I'm going to commandeer a viper and use Full Throttle to move to Sector 2 and go after Scar.

Which viper would you like, the one from Sector 5 or from Sector 6?

Full Throttle allows Apollo to get off one shot at Scar. The roll may be modified by an SP. Everyone, please pass or play.

I Play SP-3 In hopes that our valiant hero, Apollo, can vanquish the evil Scar!!!

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

BSG (Kat)

So has there been a ruling that Scar can be destroyed on a modified roll? I think before billytea had said it must be a natural 7+.

Because if the stars are right, I might be able to Hotshot his ass.

So I played!
