More cards are always good, I think.

Also, I play SR-3

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

Everyone else passes on interrupts. At present, the only player who benefits from the StP is Chief, who may draw two cards. Chief, which colour(s) would you like to draw?

Tally: 19 - 2 = 17. Pass! The crisis has no effect. Well, almost. Cally's Quick Fix removes one of the BL-1s, which raises the tally to 18. Alas, she can't remove both of them, and the check is Reckless. A basestar appears in Sector 1, and a civilian ship in Sector 4. Game on!

That means we can actually do something with the Cylon activation. A heavy raider launches from the basestar. Finally, the jump track advances. That concludes Cally's turn. Helo's cards are going out. Helo, when you're ready, please post your move and action.
