Thrive to spite them

Because I wasn't paying attention to the part where I could draw a purple or red card. I was thinking I could only pick from my normal cards.

As to why I picked Green - I don't know really I just randomly decided between yellow and green. I didn't pick Blue because it looked like I was headed to sickbay and I didn't want to get a repair card someone else could use.

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.

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

Running tally is 6 + Destiny. Baltar is last to play.

Baltar plays 0 cards since he was dumb and messed up the Delusional Intention draw earlier.

Here's the full play:

Centurion Assault: 9 PR

Destiny: Executive Order 2, Evasive Manoeuvre 2
Cally: 0 cards
Leoben: 0 cards
Apollo: 0 cards
Adama: Launch Scout 1, Guts and Initiative 2
Dee: Strategic Planning 3
Baltar: 0 cards

Tally: 8 - 2 = 6. Fail. It's just outside of Declare Emergency range, so the result stands. One raptor is destroyed, and Baltar does to Sickbay.

Finally, the Cylon activation places another basestar on the CFB and advances the pursuit track. However, both basestars are already on the CFB; so instead, the basestar in Sector 1 jumps back onto the main board.

That concludes Baltar's turn. Cally starts her turn in Sickbay, so may only draw one card. She has opted to draw Green. Cally, when you're ready, please post your move and action.
