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

BSG (Anders)

I think we can do it. I Choose Option 1 and pass on interrupts.

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

BSG

I have interrupt COs. Ellen plays an Investigative Committee 4. Boomer plays a Guts and Initiative 2.

Destiny will not play into this check (unless someone plays a Trust Instincts), and all cards will be played face up. The check begins. I have several COs:

Reunite the Fleet: 10 YG

Destiny: 2 cards
Ellen: Consolidate Power 1, Preventative Policy 4
Cally: 0 cards
Gaeta: (max 3 cards)
Boomer: (COs received)
Six: (COs received)
Anders: (COs received)

Tally: 5 - 0 = 5. Fail. Gaeta is up next.

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

BSG (Boomer)

I play 0 cards.

I reeeeally hope Six has a 2 and not a 1, or this will be very bad.

It's nice to have hopes. The final play is:

Reunite the Fleet: 10 YG

Destiny: 2 cards
Ellen: Consolidate Power 1, Preventative Policy 4
Cally: 0 cards
Gaeta: Investigative Committee 3
Boomer: 0 cards
Six: Major Victory 1
Anders: Iron Will 0

Tally: 9 - 0 = 9. Fail! However, the tally is within 4 of the pass level, which means Anders' Iron Will prevents the fail effect from taking place. No effect!

Next, the raiders in Sector 4 open fire:

Raider 1: 1. Miss.
Raider 2: 3. Miss.
Oh, right, these are the raiders from Sector 1. The journey hasn't improved their aim.

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

FRAKKING HELL. Thanks for the save, Anders, but FRAKKING HELL.

Ellen, I should be able to take out those Raiders with an XO.

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

BSG (Ellen)

Well, that could have been worse.

Cally, honey, we do not get enough girl time! I move to Command, adroitly give Cally a card, and draw 2Y. Continuing my general feeling of grrl power I XO-1 Boomer.

Boomer, you have received an XO. You may either move and take an action, or not move and take two actions. When you're ready, please post your orders.
