I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

BSG (Apollo)

Mm, that would be bad. OK, then, Option 1 with an IC-3

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

BSG

That leaves only Reckless interrupts, for which I have passes from all players. The check begins!

The Passage: 14 PRB

Destiny: 2 cards
Cally: 0 cards
Roslin:
Adama:
Chief:
Apollo:

Roslin is up. Due to Apollo's IC, all cards (except Destiny) will be played into the check face-up.

That brings you up to 16. Will it be enough? The full play:

The Passage: 14 PRB

Destiny: Consolidate Power 1, Major Victory 1
Cally: 0 cards
Roslin: 0 cards
Adama: Launch Scout 2, Critical Situation 3
Chief: Scientific Research 3
Apollo: Launch Scout 1, Protect the Fleet 0, Evasive Manoeuvre 2, Maximum Firepower 5

Tally: 16 - 2 = 14. Pass! Apollo has found the passage; jump prep advances by 1. In addition, the PtF-0 takes effect, as there is more than 3 points' worth of Piloting in this check. Apollo gets one RSV activation, which he uses to launch a Mk II into Sector 5.

Finally, the raiders advance, and the jump track advances a second time. That concludes Apollo's turn. Cally's cards are going out. Cally, when you're ready, please post your move and action.

BSG (Chief)

Niiiiiiiiiiiice, by the skin of our teeth! Good job, Apollo, and nice try, Destiny.

he uses to launch a Mk II into Sector 5.

Why not an MKVII? I worked so hard to fix them up!
