I can't help at all.

I just don't feel good about that skill check. 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

Food falls by 1; everyone (except Six) discards one card and draws 1 Treachery (including Six). Everyone, please post or send me your discards.

I have everyone's discards. Let's find out the cost of that cover-up:

Anders: Red Tape 0
Ellen: Broadcast Location 1
Cally: Scientific Research 3
Gaeta: Repair 2
Boomer: Protect the Fleet 0

Next, everyone draws one Treachery; cards are going out now.

Next is the raider activation. As there are no raiders or basestars on the main board, this activation places one raider randomly on the Cylon fleet board. It appears in... Sector 2. It also advances the pursuit track to the first step, which prompts the CAG to place one new civilian ship. Boomer places the SS Castrovalva in Sector 5.

Finally, the jump track advances, which brings us to the first jump! Destinations are going out to the Admiral. Admiral Gaeta, when you're ready, please post your choice.

People of the Fleet, we have arrived at the Lion's Head Nebula.

It was a heck of a jump, but we're starting with a jump on the Jump Track.

Excellent! The fleet jumps 3.4 Distance, at a cost of 4 Fuel! With the jump, all the vipers return to Galactica. As we are using the Cylon Fleet module, the civilian ships remain where they are, and any Cylon ships (a lone heavy raiders) are moved to the Cylon fleet board.

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

Oh maaaaan, what a jump! So this will be my last round as CAG, since I have the pokey to look forward to after our next jump, so let me throw out a game plan:

A) Repair those Mk VIIs ASAP. We want those in the sky instead.
B) Bring our civvies home.
-->i) Use Comms to get A and B to Sector 5.
-->ii) Hammer Command to launch a Viper into Sector 5 and escort a civvie off the board.
-->iii) I can also help with this process.
C) Profit.
