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

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.

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

A TANK has been suggested. You may vote on this during the Interrupts phase (just post whether or not you want to tank the check). If everyone votes to tank, I will simply reveal Destiny and resolve the check.

Yeah, we may regret this when we get attacked and run out of Vipers, but we can Repair the damage with two cards as opposed to all the cards we'd use to pass the check. I'd rather save those cards for something more dire.

TANK.

I hope this means a tank appears on Galactica.

Maybe it'll be Tank.

ETA or maybe the guy from DNAgents!

Or the guy from The Matrix!

Or maybe it will cause everyone onboard to dance to the theme from Cowboy Bebop!

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

BSG (President)

OK. This looks to be more of a Military decision. But as President, I just want to understand. We want to damage almost 1/3 of our Viper reserves to save a few cards. Given the notion, that Chief can do it in 2 cards. Well. I'd say a) Given that Chief is no longer on Galactica, he'd have to burn one to go and repair the vipers. So that's 3 cards. And b) what if Chief gets sent to sickbay in the mean time? You never know when those pesky Cylons are going to drop in, and fire on us.

I hear what you are saying. But. I disagree. But being a Politician, and not a Military person, I will defer to the Admiral's wishes. But let it be known, I have grave reservations. I hope I'm wrong on this one. But purposfully damaging 1/3 of our Viper fleet. Seems dangerous.
