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

BSG (Cally)

Yes, we would lose Morale. If he is human, he can still choose a character that would allow him to keep the Presidency...although he could come back as a Cylon.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir

BSG (Dee)

It's a tough choice. I'm leaning towards option 2, with a 1 and 1 damage. But, not strong enough to say "Adama I think you should do option 2"

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

BSG (Adama)

he could come back as a Cylon.

yes, there's that too. or we could lose the game if Galactica is detroyed.

Thrive to spite them

BSG

Okay I'm confused about the damage issue. There's no current damage to Galatica right now so will 1 or 2 hits really put us that close to deconstruction? I thought there had to be 6 damaged areas.

Can Pegasus really take only 2 damage before being destroyed?

If Pegasus take 2 more hits, then 1 more hit will destroy it. Galactica will take 6 hits, yes, but imagine if Comms or Weapons Control (or even Armory) gets hit.

BSG (Adama bit confused)

Oh hey that's good news. I was thinking 3 hits would destroy either ship.

I choose Option 2

Well, that's if Baltar picks that. He could also split the damage if he wants.

Either way, it's unlikely he'd pick Galactica for both hits, so brace yourself, Dee!

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

BSG

If Pegasus take 2 more hits, then 1 more hit will destroy it. Galactica will take 6 hits, yes, but imagine if Comms or Weapons Control (or even Armory) gets hit.

Communications cannot be damaged, but the other two are fair game. The Admiral decrees: Baltar lives! (Let's see if he returns the favour whent Assassination Plot comes up.) Baltar has left COs to damage each ship once. The damage is:

Airlock
Command - Adama to Sickbay!

Next we have the basestar activation. As all basestars are already on the CFB, we cannot place a new one; instead the basestar in Sector 1 jumps in! Then the pursuit track advances to the end, and the rest of the Cylons jump in anyway. Game on!

Finally, the jump track advances. That concludes Baltar's turn. Cally's cards are going out. Cally, when you're ready, please post your move and action.
