Evasive Manoeuvre 1
Red Tape 0
Best of the Best 6
Human Weakness 3
The RT-0 discards all cards of value 5 or higher; which gets rid of the At Any Cost 5, Critical Situation 5 and the Best of the Best 6. That leaves us:
Tally: 15 - 3 = 12. Pass! Magnus Greel is destroyed!
Adama's turn ends with the raiders advancing. Dee starts her turn in Sickbay, so she can only draw one card. She has chosen to draw Blue. Dee, when you're ready, please post your move and action.

Oof, that was close!! Whew.
Dee, if you can repair Command, that would be grand. Or maybe do something about those civvies. Without a pilot, we're in bad shape protecting them. But we NEED Command without a pilot. Also those MKVIIs.
BSG (Adama)
I agree with repairing command. Then an XO to me could get a basestar nuked and some protection for those civvies. After that I'm thinking you might want to shoot me in the face.
BSG (dee)
Frak. Well, I only got one card, and I was hoping for a repair. Alas, no such luck.
MOVE:
to Research Lab.
ACTION:
activate Research lab and draw a BLUE card.
Hopefully this is a repair card so I can be XO'd. Alas, that's about all I can do at the moment with two sucky cards.
in Drawsomething news. I just had, what could have been, the worst drawing. I should have snapped a picture. My grad school aquaitence drew two squarish objects within eachother, and wrote in those sqaures:
p
help

All in black. Nothing else. Turns out the answer was... wait for it... Phelps. :: boogles mind :: Not even olympic rings or anything. Just... spell out the answer. And here I thought I cheat when I put "Meow" next to my poor attempt at a cat. Ah well. Cest la vie.
what a cheating cheater who cheats

Dee heads to the Research Lab, to research stuff. Stuff like, why do things on this ship keep going boom? Dee's crisis card is:
Terrorist Investigations
Skill Check (12 YG)
Possible interrupts: IC, SR, Reckless. Everyone, please pass or play.
After that I'm thinking you might want to shoot me in the face.
Wow. The Battlestar gets a few holes in it and the Admiral gets suicidal.
(All jokes aside, I can't believe how brutal this game has been so far.)
BSG (Cally)
I can't help with this check, and I think we should only go for the partial pass because it would be really, really bad if my Loyalty card gets checked.
