Spike: We got a history, him and me. Fred: What? Spike: It was a long time ago. He was a young Watcher, fresh out of the academy when we crossed paths. It was a, what-you-call battle of wills and blood was spilled. Vendettas were sworn. It was a whole-- Fred: My God you're so full of crap. Spike: Yeah. Okay.

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

BSG (Cally)

How do we feel about the skill check? I could finesse it a bit but not help much with contributing cards. Could anyone help with the die roll?

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

BSG (Roslin)

I can't help either way; I'm down to one card.

Thrive to spite them

BSG (Adama)

I can't help with the die roll but I can with the skill check.

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

BSG (Apollo)

I could help a little with the skill check, not with the die roll.

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

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

BSG (Chief)

Administrative note: Destiny's play into the check reduced the destiny deck to 6 cards. I've replenished and reshuffled it.

The complete table:

Bomb Threat: 13 YGP(B)

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

Cards played:

Consolidate Power 1
Consolidate Power 2
Preventative Policy 3
Executive Order 1
Declare Emergency 5
Launch Scout 1
Launch Scout 1
Repair 1
Repair 1
Repair 2

Tally: 18 - 0 = 18. Pass!

The bomb has been found and neutralised.

Next, the raiders activate. Order turns out to be irrelevant. Let's start with Sector 4, where a lone raider fires at Apollo:

Die roll: 7. Hit! But Apollo plays an Evasive Manoeuvre 1.

Die roll: 2 - 2 = 0. Miss.

He's failed, but now he has backup as the raider from S3 joins him. Finally, one raider in Sector 1 destroys civilian ship C, and his fellows move to Sector 2. Civvie C contained 1 Population.

Finally, the jump track advances. That concludes Cally's turn. Roslin's cards are going out. Ms Roslin, when you're ready, please post your move and action.
