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

BSG (Gaeta)

Well, I suppose I will move to Weapons Control, buy Hot Dog a drink, and fire on the basestar in Sector 3.

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

BSG

Hot Dog is happy to have a drink, but as this is not your Movement Phase (not being your turn), he remains unencountered for the moment.

The attack on the basestar may be modified by an SP. Everyone, please pass or play. You can also send me COs for Calcs.

Ooh! An interesting loophole.

Pass on interrupts.

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

BSG (Helo)

Interesting indeed.

Pass on interrupts.

Note that this means that it's possible to use a location without encountering an NPC therein. This can come in handy in situations where you're particularly concerned about an NPC's negative outcome. (For instance, some of them can send you to Sickbay or the Brig, in which case you wouldn't get to activate the location after all.)

I have orders; Starbuck plays a Strategic Planning 5. Gaeta fires!

Die roll: 8 + 2 = 10. Hit! And you do... Structural Damage. All attacks at this basestar are now at +2 to hit.

That's all well and good, but of course humans are very susceptible to peer pressure. If all the cool Cylons are doing it, perhaps you should set about damaging Galactica. Chief's crisis card is:

Hangar Accident
Skill Check (10 PRB)

Possible interrupts: IC, Reckless. Everyone, please pass or play.
