And Kaylee, what the hell's goin' on in the engine room? Were there monkeys? Some terrifying space monkeys maybe got loose?

There's no way for you not to reach New Caprica on your next jump.

But if we only have 3 Fuel, it's possible for us to lose as soon as we get there.

Nevertheless, I recommend AGAINST the Morale loss. We know for certain it's going to take hits on New Caprica, and we need Population.

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

BSG (President)

You are confusing me. You are saying, "don't burn fuel, we will need it" and then "don't kill morale, either". Dude. It's one or the other. I'm going with the one with the least resources impacted. I go with Option 2.

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

BSG

If that's a firm decision, could you put it in bold? Ta ever so.

There it is, children, President Killjoy has cancelled CAG Christmas. Morale falls to 3.

We round out the turn with the raiders and jump track advancing. That concludes Apollo's turn. As Kat is on the Resurrection Ship, she draws only one card. She has chosen Piloting, and left COs. I'll post the turn summary first.

By CO, Kat has opted to stay on the Resurrection Ship and draw a super crisis card. That concludes Kat's turn. Adama's cards are going out. Admiral Adama, when you're ready, please post your move and action.

That's why I put AGAINST in caps. Never mind, we may yet be glad you did that.

So I will Play CS-4

For my first action I Fire on the Basestar, pass on interrupts.

For my second I LS-1 the Crisis deck, also pass on interrupts.

The basestar attack may be modified by an SP. Everyone, please pass or play. I'll also take COs for SPs on the scouting roll, and for Calcs on either roll.
