Criminy, that is a lot of civvies out there, and the Fleet is about to jump in, and we're stuck here for a while. We are frakking HOSED, you guys. I don't even know what to do, especially because we still have one more Cylon to suss out.
BSG (Tory)
Yeah, it's not looking too rosy. Anders could do some escorting, and anyone in Command could get more birds in the air - those seem like the best options for right now.
Maybe you're the cylon, Boomer! That'd be a lucky break.
BSG (Boomer)
Wouldn't it! But no such luck. I kind of thought it was Gaeta, but then he pulled that YANC shit, but...he could have turned metal after that. I don't even know about you and Anders. Either option is bad. All options are bad. President, Admiral, the other pilot? Man, this is not going to end well.
BSG (Six)
Shit's about to get serious, yeah.
I don't even. I have a couple of options, I could still keep repairing stuff. Or I could XO somebody, but not Anders because he follows me. XO is most effective when it's someone already in the location. So alternately, I could move, myself.
What do you humans suggest?
BSG (Tory)
Right. Well. I suppose Repairs are generally a good idea but don't seem urgent at the moment. CIC is not a bad place for you to be hanging out, since we have incoming basestars you'll be able to shoot at shortly.
Well, an XO to me would let me go fishing for useful quorum cards.
BSG(Admiral Ice Cream)
You could XO me to head to Main Batteries and fix them. Me over there would be good when all the Raiders show up.
BSG (6)
Okay, let's go with that. For my movement phase, I stay still and get Intimate (just go with it) with Tory, drawing one of her cards and allowing her to draw a Purple. And then for my action phase, I play XO1 on the Admiral.
BSG (President Now I Want Ice Cream)
I like that idea better than Six doing the same repair, have both of you ready to deploy as XOs become available.
Eta: Oooh. That was...interesting...
BSG
Admiral Gaeta, 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.
Eta: Oooh. That was...interesting...
That's what they all say.
