Thrive to spite them

(BSG) Cally

I move to Weapons Control and use Repair 2.

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

BSG

Weapons Control is back online. Now Cally is out of the Brig, she gets a crisis! Cally's crisis card is:

The Passage
Current Player's Choice

Cally, when you're ready, please post your choice.

Thrive to spite them

BSG (Cally)

We've been squeaking by with the checks so I'm going to pick Option 2 and hope for the best.

Cally has chosen the die roll, and plays a Strategic Planning 3.

Die roll: 8 + 2 = 10. Pass! Cally remains out of Sickbay.

Finally, the jump track advances. That concludes Cally's turn. And look who just turned up on the Hangar Deck! It's the Admiral! Helo's cards are going out. Admiral Agathon, 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

BSG (President)

Not a bad choice, considering most of our card draws are outside the colors of that skill check. Look at all those cards we saved. Good job, Cally! And look, we are in the blue again, so even if we get toast in the air, we can jump early. We humans may win this yet!


Laga - Mar 10, 2013 12:24:53 pm PDT #19245 of 26134
You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

BSG (Helo)

Well I think I'll stay here in case we do need another pilot in the air. Meanwhile, what have you all been doing while I was away? The state of this place! We need some repairs. I play XO-1 on Chief.

BSG(Chief Fixed)

Hmmm. The only thing to repair over here is the Armory, which isn't critical yet. I'll leave that to Cally, I think.

So I will discard CP-2 to move to Pegasus - Main Batteries and R-1 to get them firing again.

You're all running out of things to repair. Let's see if we can't change that. Helo's crisis card is:

Training Snafu
Skill Check (8 GR)

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

BSG(Chief-templative)

Do we want to tank this check? It seems like that'll be cheaper in terms of cards spent.....
