BSG (Cally)
Escorting the civvies would actually be a very bad idea. With no civvies in the air, all those Raiders will start firing on
Galactica.
We need to clear the Cylons out. I'm ready to fire again.
BSG (Dee)
Crap in a bucket. I'd love to XO someone, but the gods are not with me. Well. My options are:
- Move and fire on the Cylons
- stay put, and activate Comms, see what's on the ships, but leave them put
- Scout decks (which I'd rather not do, unless someone can modify the roll)
Part of me wants to stay put, so I can activate comms twice on an XO if/when more ships pop up. Part of me wants to go Duck Hunting!
BSG (Cally)
It is good to have you in Comms, but Main Batteries would also be a good option, for sure. Too many ducks in the sky! Yet, Comms is where you belong. It is where you are most powerful. Hm. If one of the ships is a decoy, you could begin offering it as a sacrifice. If you push a civvie to Sector 5, that will cause the 5 Raiders to move to Sector 6 instead of Sector 2, where that Viper can try to hold them off. Right now they're just going to follow the 3 Raiders toward Sector 4.
BSG (Dee)
Ah, decoy. Interesting. Hadn't thought of that. And yes, Comms is what I am best at.
MOVE:
none.
ACTION:
activate Communications. Show me the Manifests, please.
BSG (dee)
And not to point the obvious, but, we need to keep an eye on that Heavy. Is it sector 5 that they start boarding? So two more heavy activations?
BSG (Cally)
No, one more. They can board in Sector 6.
BSG (DeeFense)
OK, I have the manifests for those civilian ships. We will
NOT MOVE THEM
at this time.
Apollo & RSV, keep tight to those civilian ships. Defend!!
BSG
The ships stay where they are. Nothing changes. Sounds like time for a similarly bland crisis. Dee's crisis card is:
Food Shortage
President's Choice
President Baltar, when you're ready, please post your choice.
BSG (Dee)
OK, this might be bland but, this early. Eep. Cards are a bit of a premium here, but 1/4 of the food gone? Yikes. I vote for option 2. My card choices CO have been sent.
