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

At least the basestar only has a fifty-fifty chance of hitting.

Actually, it hits on a 4 or more. Such as:

Basestar: 2. Miss. Oh well. We have three raiders as well, with a viper to practise on. Let's see if they do any better.

Raider 1: 1. Miss.
Raider 2: 3. Miss.
Raider 3: 2. Miss!

Humans catch a break! That just feels wrong somehow. I blame it on the Coriolis effect.

That concludes Ellen's turn. Cally's cards are going out. Cally, when you're ready, please post your move and action.

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

BSG (Boomer)

Ha ha, awesome! Suck it, Cylons! Can't hit anything, boo-yah.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

BSG (Anders)

Whew.

I'm for destroying as many ships as we can before we jump.

BSG (Boomer)

I can go after those Raiders. I don't know whether the Heavy Raider or the Basestar should be our second priority. If the Heavy Raiders are going to follow us, we really have to take them out, but they're going to be hard to kill without SPs.

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

Am I allowed to be peanut gallery? Because hearing Boomer say

Ha ha, awesome! Suck it, Cylons! Can't hit anything, boo-yah.
Is ripe for ridicule.

Thrive to spite them

BSG (Cally)

I could move to Weapons Control or Command or I guess comms and move the civvies. Which would be more useful right now?

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

BSG (Ellen)

If you're going to activate it right away, I think Command. If you're going to XO someone or something, Weapons Control.

BSG (Anders)

I suppose if one of those civvies is a decoy it might be useful to move it into harm's way.

Thrive to spite them

BSG (Cally)

I'm going to hope I help and move to Command and launch a viper into Sector 5.
