So, bt, If I Repair something on my turn, I get a bonus action, I can use to XO someone else?

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

That is correct.

Thrive to spite them

So I was at Goodwill and bought some games today. Risk, Parcheesi and then I found a 1976 All New Third Edition The Price is Right! It was only $1! And there are pieces not even punched out so I assume most of it is there.

I doubt I'll ever play it but it's cool to look at.

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

Oh I LOVE Parcheesi! Seems there are different rules than I remember when I played as a kid... assuming I was playing the proper rules and not house-kid rules.

Thrive to spite them

I do too! I used to play with my Grandma all the time. I haven't played it in years and have wanted once since I got into board games.

OK, here we go:

I Discard BL-1 to Move to Main Batteries, then I Play R-1 to repair it and finally, inspired by my own repairfulness, I Play XO-2 on Felix.

Gaeta, you have received an XO. You may either move and take an action, or not move and take two actions. When you're ready, please post your orders.

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

I discard SD-2 to move to Pegasus CIC and play Scout for Fuel-6.

Now we have some action! There is a die roll to raise Fuel. It may be modified by an SP. Everyone, please pass or play.

Everyone passes on interrupts.

Die roll: 7. Pass! The mission is a success; Fuel increases by 1.

You'd think everyone would be happy with that, but nooo, the Admiral wants to know why, as long as you're looking for some Fuel, the raptor couldn't have swung by Caprica and picked him up. He didn't appreciate the Chief's explanation that "raptors don't work that way". You stand accused, Chief! The Chief's crisis card is:

A Verdict of Guilty
Admiral's Choice

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