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

BSG

Baltar plays an IC-3 as an interrupt. I have some COs:

Destiny: 2 cards
Cally: Consolidate Power 2, Calculations 5
Leoben: 0 cards
Apollo: Run Interference 5
Adama: 0 cards
Dee:

Running tally: 7 - 5 = 2. Fail. Dee is up next.

I have everyone's play. Let's add Destiny too:

Medical Breakthrough: 12(6) YGB

Destiny: Consolidate Power 1, Sabotage 3
Cally: Consolidate Power 2, Calculations 5
Leoben: 0 cards
Apollo: Run Interference 5
Adama: 0 cards
Dee: Establish Network 0, Repair 1
Baltar: Scientific Research 3

Tally: 21 - 8 = 13. Pass! All the humans may draw one skill card. They have chosen:

Baltar: Green
Cally: Purple
Adama: Green
Dee: Blue

Cards are going out now. Finally, the heavy raiders activate again, closing in on Galactica's launch tubes. That concludes Baltar's turn. Cally's cards are going out. Cally, when you're ready, please post your move and action.

Administrative note: Adama's Medical Breakthrough card draw exhausted the Leadership deck. I've reshuffled the discards.

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

BSG (Cally)

I remain where I am and ready to shoot and XO-1 Adama. Admiral, I recommend a nuclear strike on those basestars. We have two Cylon turns in a row, and basestar activations could easily kill us.

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

BSG (adama)

I thank you Cally. I don't move and Launch a nuke towards sector 1.

pass on interrupts

And I play SP-4 to make sure that thing explodes mightily.

Let's hope we can disable weapons on them both, at least. Only way we're sure to survive until your turn.

Ahh good point, Disabled weapons on both is better than one completely destroyed, eh?

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

BSG (deeLighted!)

Hot damn that was a squeaker!

Now let's hope those Nukes knock out launch abilities!!!

We can do this Humans! We can win!! We are going to cripple those big mofo's, we are going to repair ourselves, we will jump outta here, and we will be stronger than ever! I can feel it in my pretty little eyes, all the way down to my TOES!
