Well, we may not have parted on the best of terms. I realize certain words were exchanged. Also, certain... bullets. But that's air through the engine. It's past. We're business people.

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

Partial pass isn't too awful. We do have a big population at this point.

Partial pass is no longer an option. The JR-1 lowers the pass level to 7, below the partial pass level. The check is now a straight-up pass or fail check. And everyone else passes on interrupts, so it begins!

The Olympic Carrier: 11(8) 7 YGR

Destiny: 2 cards
Apollo: 0 cards
Adama:
Dee: (COs received)
Baltar: (COs received)
Cally: (COs received)
Leoben:

Adama is up next.

I now have everyone's play:

Destiny: Consolidate Power 2, Broadcast Location 1
Apollo: 0 cards
Adama: 0 cards
Dee: 0 cards
Baltar: Preventative Policy 4
Cally: 0 cards
Leoben: Consolidate Power 1, Executive Order 1

Tally: 8 - 1 = 7. Pass! No effect. Well, almost no effect - since the check was Reckless, the BL-1 from Destiny takes effect, and places a basestar in Sector 1 and a civvie in Sector 4.

Finally, the heavy raider and the jump track both advance. That concludes Leoben's turn. Apollo starts on the Resurrection Ship and draws one card only. He has opted to draw Treachery. I have COs for his turn, but with the addition of the basestar on the main board, I'm going to confirm matters before enacting them.

Orders from Apollo:

Move to the Cylon Fleet and activate basestars. It fires!

Die roll: 7. Hit! Let's see what the damage is: Weapons Control! Baltar and Cally to Sickbay. Once again, Galactica teeters on the brink of... TOTAL DESTRUCTION!

That concludes Apollo's turn. Adama's cards are going out. Admiral Adama, when you're ready, please post your move and action.

Cally you got some repair cards, right? (do secrecy rules allow her to answer?)

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

BSG (Dee)

I know it prob won't happen, since I play after you, but an XO to me can be useful

Thrive to spite them

BSG (Baltar)

I think we can say that we can repair if XO'd in this type of discussion. And I would be helpful in that regard as well.

Secrecy rules do allow Cally (or anyone else) to state whether or not they could repair on an XO.
