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

Administrative note: Chief's draw exhausted the Piloting deck. I've reshuffled the discards.

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

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

18 shots and only 2 hits? Damn. The Gods must be smiling on the Humans. Y'all dodged a bullet there... or rather 16 of them.

Wow, that was really scary!

That's pretty much the expected number of hits. They only hit on an 8, so on average, they'll hit 18/8 = 2.25 times.

Too bad team Cylon can't play an interrupt to lower the dice roll needed for a hit.

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

BSG (Chief)

Mwahahahaha. While it would have been nice to send Roslin to Sickbay, at least you can't jump away early. I hope Raiders activate on Apollo's turn!

Communications can't be damaged. Roslin's safe, as long as Galactica isn't destroyed.

Oh! Boo-urns. Then Command is what I totally wanted to get damaged while Apollo is in the Brig anyway.
