Right, there comes a point where you have to either move on, or just buy yourself a Klingon costume and go with it.

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

Yeah sorry. Had to work.

BSG President

I don't have any quorum cards that will fire up the engines. And the gods didn't bless me with a repair card. I could lay hands on the engines. May lay some of my "advisors" in the engine room. But I doubt that will get them to work.

...Are you hitting the chamalla, Prez? All we're asking is for you to activate the Engine Room with 2 of your million cards.

Wha? Ohhh. It's the airlock that's busted. See, I was distracted. You have no idea how hard it is to satisfy all these followers.

Sure, I can make 2 of my cards = a jump icon. Seems pretty simple.

Anyone play Alien Frontiers? A buddy got me hooked. Kickstarter thing to make the board game. Another kickstarter to make the iPad app. It's pretty cool game. Def worth the $5 for iPad. Not so sure it's worth $150 to import the board version.

Okay! I will Discard HW-3 to Move to the Airlock where I will Play R-1 to repair it, and for my bonus action I Play XO-1 on El Prez Al Dente.

Al dente? AL DENTE?!?!? I'll have you know, this noodle is far from limp! You can ask any of my administrative assistants!

MOVE: Engine room

ACTION: Activate the room to turn the next crisis card into a jump icon card. To activate the room, I DISCARD Yellow 0 and Blue 0 cards.

Let's get the party started! In the immortal words of Kris Kros, JUMP JUMP!

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

BSG

Unpossible! Can the fleet jump before it's ready? Surely there will be a mass outbreak of the vapours. You should do something about that. Chief's crisis card is:

Medical Breakthrough
Skill Check (12 YGB)

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

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

pass on interrupts. I can help a little.

Hey, good thing you worked that Engine Room, Prez! Time to blow this ice popsicle stand.
