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

BSG

Population falls by 1. As an encore, the basestars fire:

Basestar 1: 7. Hit!
Basestar 2: 7. Hit!

Cally has left COs to hit each ship once. Damaged:

Main Batteries - Dee to Sickbay!
FTL Control

One more hit will destroy Pegasus, and send Cally to Sickbay, no doubt in a thrilling action sequence where she leaps THROUGH SPACE towards Galactica and is propelled into the Airlock by the force of Pegasus exploding behind her. (Why yes, I have been watching Farscape! Thanks for noticing!)

That concludes Cally's turn. Leoben has opted to draw 1 Yellow and 1 Treachery. Cards are going out now.

BSG

For his movement phase, Leoben Glimpses the Face of God. The top two cards of the Destiny deck have been sent out. Leoben, when you're ready, let me know which two cards you return to Destiny, then post your action.

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

BSG (Cally)

Ergh. Apollo or Adama, please XO me to repair CIC! I'm hanging by a thread up here!

BSG (Leoben)

There are so many options, but those basestars had such a good time firing on Galactica, I think I have to unleash them again. I activate basestars.

Fire on Pegasus first, my friends, let's get rid of that superfluous ship.

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

BSG (Deejected)

Um, I'll need an XO before my turn, so I can draw full compliment of cards. Sad to say, at this point, I can't repair anything. I suppose I could go to Research try and draw a repair card. But then I wouldn't be able to actually do anything. Ugg! I feel useless!!

Frak! Can we die before sleeper stage? That would suck.

The basestars, they fire again!

Basestar 1: 5. Hit!
Basestar 2: 6. Hit!

Oof, those basestars are running hot, and Cally is running to Sickbay. Pegasus is destroyed! The second hit strikes Galactica; Armoury damaged!

That concludes Leoben's turn. Apollo has opted to draw 2 Yellow for his variable draw. Apollo, when you're ready, please post your move and action.

Ha! Good job, basestars! Magnus, old boy, your day will come.

BSG (Dee)

Holy Frak! Bust out the stems, we have a LOT of work to do people! Let's get the ideas flowing, and work as a team. We need to come up with a plan, and hit it!

I do not know what is on those civvies, but right now, we are a couple basestar activations away from space dust. We need to repair Big G, we need to kill off the intruders, and we need to knock out those basestars. Unless those civvies have fuel, I think they are low priority right now.

Please, debate me, tell me I'm wrong. But let's come up with a plan! We are getting PUMMELED out there! I'm up for a frakkin' Purple Heart! And we are dangerously close to dying before sleeper phase!
