You two carried me through that war. Now I need you to carry me just a little bit further. If you can.

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

BSG (Tory)

Not gonna lie, it's a little painful to see that Scout for Fuel turn up like that. Destiny, you are a fickle mistress.

Eta: oh, hey, let's not lose a Fuel!

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

BSG

This one is Scouting for Water, not Scouting for Fuel.

Let's not waste our Fuel scouting for water, then.

Thrive to spite them

But someone played Scout for Fuel to get Boomer out of the Brig.

Yes, that's what I was talking about.

Oh, sorry! Yes, that got played. However: Scout for Fuel lets you risk a raptor to try to gain Fuel. If you don't have a raptor to risk (and you don't), then you can't try to gain Fuel. It hasn't been playable since your last jump.

Oh! Well, that does make me feel better.

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

BSG (Boomer)

Daaaamn, thanks, guys! It feels good to finally be out of there. Is anyone in Command? Because I can Repair Vipers while I'm on the Hangar Deck, and launching a bunch into Sector 5 would be a great defense.

Let's not waste our Fuel scouting for water, then.

We're going to die some other way before we die of Food, and I'm not going to give Cally and Anders the chance to win the game by spiking that check. I choose Option 2.

Food falls to 3. Next, the raiders activate. Order doesn't matter this time around. The raider in Sector 4 destroys civvie B, which contained: 0 Population. Decoy! Other raiders move around a bit. Finally, the raider in Sector 6 fires on Anders!

Die roll: 2. Miss.

With the jump track advance, Boomer's turn ends. Six has opted to draw 2G/1B for her card draw. Caprica Six, when you're ready, please post your ove and action.
