How do we feel about nuclear warfare?
Can't drink, smoke, diddle my willy. Doesn't leave much to do other than watch you blokes stumble around playing Agatha Christie.

Sounds like fun to me.
Eta: Strategic fun, that we could plan, even.

I accept this football in the name of the Gods, Madame Prez.
I will Move to Communications and launch a Nuke into Sector 1.

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

Tory plays an SP on the die roll.
5 2 = 7. Basestar and 3 2 raiders destroyed!
By CO, the Admiral celebrates by playing a Major Victory 1. Everyone passes on SPs.
Die roll: 3. Fail. That can't be right, did you not see the big kersplosion? The Admiral is large and in charge! Pretty soon a lot of people are getting very upset that a lot of people aren't happier about the boomshow. Gaeta's crisis card is:
Riots (A)
Admiral's Choice
There are two Riots in the crisis deck. This one has a jump icon and a basestar activation. Admiral Gaeta, when you're ready, please post your choice.

I choose Option 1. I guess people get fed but they're not happy about it?

I think that represents the military opting not to open fire on the citizenry. Rioters loot the food stores and the people lose faith in the leadership's ability to keep order. (In option 2, presumably, you take out the rabble rousers with Tylium bombs.)
Food and Morale fall by 1. The activation places a new basestar in... Sector 4. It also advances the pursuit track, which means the CAG must place a new civilian ship. Anders, when you're ready, please post your choice of sector.
Finally, the jump track advances. That concludes Gaeta's turn. Boomer's cards are going out. Boomer, when you're ready, please post your move and action.

All right, who can help me get out of here? Sadly, I can't do this on my own. If prospects look bright, I might be able to get more down on this turn than expected, but my sense is that I'm going to have to go all-in to have a shot at all.
