Well, we may not have parted on the best of terms. I realize certain words were exchanged. Also, certain... bullets. But that's air through the engine. It's past. We're business people.

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

BSG

A reminder to all players who are not Kat: send me COs for the skill card colour you will draw, in the event that the check passes.

I think it's OK to ask this:

Mr Gaeta, what's a good number to reach before you make your play?

I'm not entirely comfortable with the question. It's close to asking Gaeta what value he can put in, which of course he's not able to offer up. It would be ok to ask him if he can play high or low (Tory likewise).

Sorry, Dad was the lawyer, not me.

Anyway, Felix, just answer as best you can inside the rules.

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

BSG (President)

I can help a bit.

CO's sent, for pass, and fail, since there are choices either way.

I can only help a little with this check.

By CO, Tory plays a Preventative Policy-5, for a running tally of 9 and a partial pass. Gaeta is last to play.

I now have everyone's play:

Medical Breakthrough: 12 YGP

Destiny: 0 cards
Apollo: 0 cards
Kat: 0 cards
Adama: Executive Order 1, Declare Emergency 3
Tory: Preventative Policy 5
Gaeta: Executive Order 2, Repair 2

Tally: 13 - 0 = 13. Pass! The crew all draw one extra card, and everyone has opted for a different colour:

Adama: Purple
Tory: Yellow
Gaeta: Blue
Apollo: Red

Cards are going out now. Finally, the heavy raider advances to Sector 5. That concludes Gaeta's turn. Apollo has opted to draw 1Y/1G for his optional draw. Apollo, when you're ready, please post your move and action.

Sorry, one final piece of business: Gaeta now has 12 cards and must discard two. Mr Gaeta, when you're ready, please post your discards.
