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

BSG

Roslin's turn will move quickly. I have COs from her:

Move: None (well, duh)
Action: Discard Red Tape 0 and Support the People 1 to activate the Brig.

It's a 7 YP check. Any interrupts? Why, yes. Yes there are. Roslin plays Political Prowess 6. The check passes automatically! Roslin is free, and moves to Communications.

Now that she's out of stir, she gets crisis cards again; which is to say, she gets her visions again. Religious Visions are going out. Ms Roslin, when you're ready, please post your choice.

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

BSG (Chief)

Aw, man, that's CHEATING.

But at least Cally got hurt. This is what you get for waving that gun around all the time; it makes you an easy target.

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

Roslin has made her choice, and she has some concerns to raise with the Admiral. Apparently she has it on good authority that there's just been a jailbreak on Galactica. Some prisoner, not important who it was, was able to pull some political strings and just walk straight out scot free! Isn't that worrying? Maybe you should have someone look into things. Roslin's crisis card is:

Appoint Head of Security
Admiral's Choice

Admiral Adama, when you're ready, please post your choice.

Thrive to spite them

BSG (Adama)

Option 1

BSG

Adama chooses option 1. The Mk II in Sector 6 returns to Galactica; Adama discards Executive Order 1 and Trust Instincts 0. Punishing!

On a more exciting note, both basestars launch three new raiders. That concludes Roslin's turn. Adama's cards are going out. Admiral Adama, when you're ready, please post your move and action.

BSG (Adama)

So which is the biggest threat right now, Basestars or Raiders.

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

BSG (Apollo)

Typical machine response: true yet unhelpful and ominous.

They are both pretty nasty right now, but Basestars can make more Raiders, so I'm gonna say Basestars.
