"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

BSG (Roslin)

No interrupts.

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

BSG

I'm at a seminar all day, so can't post the usual bits and pieces. However, everyone passes on interrupts. Plays to date:

Destiny: 2 cards

Cally: 0 cards

Roslin: 2 cards

Adama: 2 cards

Apollo is last to play.

Let's lay it all out:

Reunite the Fleet: 10 YG

Destiny: 2 cards
Cally: 0 cards
Roslin: 2 cards
Adama: 2 cards
Chief: 1 card
Apollo: 2 cards

Cards played:

Investigative Committee 3
Iron Will 0
Declare Emergency 3
By Your Command 1
Broadcast Location 1
Broadcast Location 1
God's Plan 2
Sabotage 3
Scientific Research 4

Tally: 14 - 4 = 10. Pass! The fleet is reunited, via an underhanded program of subterfuge and deceit. Population increases by 1!

However, the Cylons are quick to take advantage of human perfidy. Both the By Your Command and the Broadcast Location(s) take effect; as current player, Apollo decides the order. He has opted to resolve Broadcast Location first. A basestar appears in Galactica's path; a new civilian ship pops into its wake.

By Your Command is next, activating raiders and heavy raiders. With none on the board, two new raiders and a heavy raider launch from the basestar.

Finally, the crisis card's raider activation moves the two raiders to Sector 2. That concludes Apollo's turn. Cally's cards are going out. Cally, when you're ready, please post your move and action.

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

BSG (Cally)

I will not move and Attack Sector 2 with Main Batteries

Die roll: 5. Two raiders destroyed! Look at that, we have exactly two raiders. They go boom!

Time to celebrate with another refreshing beverage. Will the CAG allow you to raid his personal stash? Cally's crisis card is:

Water Shortage (B)
President's Choice

CAGsident Apollo, when you're ready, please post your choice.

Ouch that's a painful discard but food is getting pretty low. I think maybe we better lose the cards.

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

BSG (Chief)

Who needs cards anyway?

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

I would like to note that omnis correctly picked Chief Tyrol as a toaster in backchannel way back in turn 2.2.
Now, if only I could get the spidey-senses so accurate when I'm actually PLAYING.
