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

BSG (Cally)

Huh? Why would you give up the title? I just meant to use the bonus Viper activation. I mean, I'm happy to take it if you think that's strategically better, but I don't think it helps us right now. Right now we need more Vipers in the air.

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

BSG (Adama)

My understanding is that I can only take a bonus action without giving up the title if I'm piloting a viper and somehow I rose to the rank of Admiral without ever learning how to fly a viper.

Aaaah, so that's the catch. Got it. Maybe we can, like, toss the title back and forth?

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

BSG (dee)

Let's get a ruling from BT before we go tossing the title around. It could eat up valuable actions or something.

Okay, I looked at the card, and the bonus action stuff only works when you're piloting a Viper, so a non-pilot CAG is kind of lame. A non-pilot CAG can, however, activate 1 unmanned Viper in time of crisis from ANYWHERE at the expense of the title.

Adama, you've done all you can do, no worries. Good job.

BSG (still CagAdmiral Adama)

OK I'll end my turn there and save passing the CAG for when we desperately need to move a viper.

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

BSG

Cally is correct about the CAG title. No bonus actions if you're not in a viper.

Adama has rescued two civvies. Is the President at all jealous? Would he like to get his rescue on too? Adama's crisis card is:

Rescue Caprica Survivors
President's Choice

President Baltar, when you're ready, please post your choice.

I would be hesitant to do anything that takes fuel that doesn't give distance. As much as I hate to say it, I'd say option 2 is the better option.

Thrive to spite them

BSG (Baltar)

Morale is higher so I'll go with Option 2

BSG

President Baltar observes the high Morale in the fleet and thinks to himself, "Well, I'll fix that." Morale drops by 1 as the Caprica survivors are left to fend for themselves.

Finally, the raiders and jump track advance. That concludes Adama's turn. Dee's cards are going out. Dee, when you're ready, please post your move and action.
