The jump track falls back 1 space as Baltar demands more time to get rid of the lingering asparagus taste from his "I Can't Believe It's Not Oinking!" product.
Finally, the raiders get their marching orders. Captain Lee Adama, you have company! That concludes Roslin's turn. Adama's cards are going out. Admiral Adama, when you're ready, please post your move and action.

BSG (Apollo)
Madame Once and Now Again President, I gotta say, using your religious "gifts" to get us a crisis with a check you can't help with, a Raider activation, and no Jump icon = a wee bit suspicious. Care to comment?
BSG (Chief)
Not moments after yanking the Presidency back by the skin of her teeth, no less. Hm.
BSG (Cally)
Do secrecy rules prevent her from telling us what was on the other card?
BSG
Do secrecy rules prevent her from telling us what was on the other card?
Absolutely yes. Whenever a player gets to see a card that the other players don't (including scouting missions, rejected destinations, loyalty checks), they may not give
any
details about that card, beyond saying whether it was good or bad (or, for loyalty, whether it was a Cylon card or a human card).
BSG (Adama)
So I'm going to trust my son and hope he's not a toaster!
I play
XO-1
to Apollo.
Now go take out those raiders!
So say we all.
BSG (Apollo)
Thanks, Dad, I'll try not to let you down! For my first action I will
escort Civvie A home,
then
CAG the RSV sharing my sector to escort Civvie B home
and then
fire on the raiders.
BSG (Roslin)
Care to comment?
Insofar as I can say, it really wasn't a matter of colors I could help with, just that the other card was worse. I am finding the two color draw, plus my weakness, pretty seriously limiting.
Out of character, I do have to say that there's been a lot of "Seriously, that's my choice?" email going on behind the scenes.
Anyway, go Apollo!
