Ooooh, my Adama-sense says we're going to regret this......
For my first action I launch a nuke into Sector 2 and play SP-3 on it.
For my second action I Launch a nuke into Sector 3 and play SP-3 on it.
So, as the big green guy says,
"FIRE EVERYTHING!!!"
BSG (Kat)
I thought the big green guy says, "SMASH EVERYTHING!!!"
Ooooh, my Adama-sense says we're going to regret this......
I hope so!
BSG
Bombs away!
Nuke 1 (Sector 2): 7 + 2 = 9. All ships destroyed!
Nuke 2 (Sector 3): 1 + 2 = 3. Basestar destroyed!
The skies just became a lot clearer, making room for Galactica to hurtle towards earth! (Well, New Caprica.) Apollo's crisis is:
Intra-Atmos Entry
Skill Check (15 GPRB)
Note: this check threatens Fuel. If the check fails, the humans lose! Possible interrupts: IC, Reckless. Everyone, please pass or play.
BSG (President)
That is a high number. At least it hits a lot of the colors. Sad to say, many of which, I have no cards in. I can help a little. We *NEED* to pass this!
Oh, eta, Great shooting!
BSG
That is a high number. At least it hits a lot of the colors.
True; however, note that this check has a partial pass too. As long as you reach 9, you avoid the Fuel loss.
Meanwhile, everyone passes on interrupts. The check begins:
Intra-Atmos Entry:
15 GPRB
Destiny:
2 cards
Kat:
(max 1 card)
Adama:
Tory:
(COs received)
Gaeta:
(max 1 card)
Apollo:
Kat plays first.
BSG
Administrative note: this check reduced Destiny to 6 cards. I've replenished and reshuffled it.
BSG (Kat)
I play 0 cards.
BSG
Intra-Atmos Entry:
15 GPRB
Destiny:
2 cards
Kat:
0 cards
Adama:
Tory:
(COs received)
Gaeta:
(COs received)
Apollo:
(COs received)
Adama is next.
BSG
Everyone's play is in:
Intra-Atmos Entry:
15 GPRB
Destiny:
2 cards
Kat:
0 cards
Adama:
2 cards
Tory:
2 cards
Gaeta:
0 cards
Apollo:
3 cards
Cards played:
Executive Order 2
Declare Emergency 3
Launch Scout 1
Protect the Fleet 0
Evasive Manoeuvre 1
Run Interference 4
Best of the Best 6
Consolidate Power 2
Support the People 2
Tally: 17 - 4 = 13. Partial Pass! At this level, the crisis has no effect, and the crew lives to see another day. However, the check is also within 2 points of a full pass, which means that a Declare Emergency may be used to reach a full pass. Would anyone like to play one?
BSG
No one plays a DE; the check remains at a partial pass for no effect.
There are a few more things to take care of in this turn. First, the PtF-0 in the check takes effect, as there were more than 3 points of Piloting strength. Apollo has ordered one of the RSVs from Sector 5 to Sector 6.
Next, now that Galactica has returned, the heavy raider activation has an effect. Galactica's boarding party (remember him) takes his first teetering steps.
Finally, the jump/evac icon takes effct, and the top prepped civvie launches into space! Apollo places said civvie in Sector 6.
That concludes Apollo's turn. Kat has opted to draw 1R/1T. Cards being sent.
