And now my boy's in love. All hearts and flowers. But, doesn't it freak you out that she used to change your diapers? I mean, when you think about it, the first woman you boned is the closest thing you've ever had to a mother. Doing your mom and trying to kill your dad. Hm. There should be a play.

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

Everyone passes on interrupts.

Die roll: 6. Pursuit track advances!

That concludes Chiefbot's turn. Apollo has opted to draw 2 Green for his variable draw. Apollo, when you're ready, please post your move and action.

Well, my fellow Galacticans, what should we be trying to accomplish?

Thrive to spite them

BSG (Adama)

How close are we to having a boarding party? That can be a fast way to end the game.

And how far away are we from Sleeper phase?

There's a heavy raider in Sector 6. It will board on the next heavy raider activation. (About 20% of crisis cards have one. There are another two on the CFB, also in Sector 6. They will jump in if/when the pursuit track reaches the end, and will be able to board on a heavy raider activation thereafter.

And how far away are we from Sleeper phase?

You reach Sleeper Phase at Distance 4, which you will reach either on your next jump (if it's 2 distance or more) or the jump after that (if it's only 1 distance).

You want to bring out some more vipers, Dad? Maybe take a shot at that Heavy?

Once the Cylons jump in, I've got some offensive juice to hit them with, just y'all know.

I just wanted to assure you all that the phrase "offensive juice" will be sure to get a mention the next time you turn up a Water Shortage.

That's a relief. I'd hate for such an evocative phrase to go to waste.

BSG (Adama)

(which I typed Admama several times before getting it right)

Yeah, son I think getting more ships in space (birds in the air, what is the BSG phrasing) and going after the heavy is a good idea.
