BSG
Before you jump anywhere, I have COs from Apollo: he takes advantage of Adama's Treachery discard to
play a Sabotage-3.
Galactica takes damage! I'm afraid we'll have to wait a while before we find out what gets hit. Dee, hold off on posting your orders until we know what's still up and running.
BSG (Leoben)
Wow, this has been very exciting!
BSG (Cally)
You know, one of these days there'll be a TI that actually makes a positive contribution to a skill check.
Oof. Well, at least it didn't fail us. And we cleared two of the three Treachery cards now (and both 3-value, damn).
Executive Order 2, Executive Order 2, Major Victory 2, At Any Cost 5, Declare Emergency 5, Launch Scout 1, Launch Scout 1, Launch Scout 1, Launch Scout 2
Damn, boy, if I'd know you were going to pass the check all on your own, I would have held back a little.
The reserve Cylon fleet jumps in!
DAMMIT.
I have COs from Adama to use his OPG.
Ahahahaha brilliant.
now let's jump the frak out of here
Yes, let's!! Leoben, you actually helped us on that check; can you XO Dee??
he takes advantage of Adama's Treachery discard to play a Sabotage-3. Galactica takes damage!
LORDS OF KOBOL.
Wow, this has been very exciting!
Seriously!
BSG (Adama)
I'm on the edge of my stylish Cagmident throne.
BSG (Leoben)
Yes, let's!! Leoben, you actually helped us on that check; can you XO Dee??
Sure! First I'd have to infiltrate, and acquire an XO to play (I don't draw green) and have it be my turn, but given all that, why not?
BSG (Cally)
I don't even know whose turn is next. Oh man, Dee! Oh God, please don't damage FTL Control.
I'm afraid we'll have to wait a while before we find out what gets hit.
Wait, he doesn't get to choose, right?
BSG
Wait, he doesn't get to choose, right?
No, it's random. And we randomly draw...
Lose 1 Food.
Food is now at 3.
That
concludes Adama's turn. Dee, when you're ready, please post your move and action.
BSG
While I think of it too, I believe I forgot to mention: I've changed the way in which I report the boarding parties. Previously I would count up from the Start position to 4, the End position; but last game there seemed to be some confusion as to how far they were from completing their mission. I now report any boarding parties in terms of how far they have left to go.
