That did not go well.

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

BSG (Gaeta)

Yeah, I think you once said, "That could have gone better." That's how I feel right now. I was positive we had this in the bag given that every color but one was positive.

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

See, I was worried about that, and that's why I made one more color positive. Yikes. That was horrible! It was only 2 cards that really hurt us. Red Tape card did double damage. 2 cards could be Destiny rearing it's ugly head. But wow! That really hurts.

I'm trying to come up with something productive here folks, while working a long day. Welcome to ideas.

Red Tape card did double damage.

It's kind of funny because it actually protected us too, but it hurt more than it helped, sadly.

At least we jump soon? So the By Your Command effect might not end up being a big issue. I hope.

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

BSG (Helo)

With an xo I could potentially command these RSVs to take out a few raiders.

Oh, good call. I need to get out of Sickbay eventually, but the Raiders are a more pressing concern.

Sadly, I did not get an XO card.

Want I want to do, is get more Quorum cards, because these really suck.But I have too many tokens, and Colonial One is Occupied.

I wish CIC was in operation, that would be sweet.

I'm a little worried about that Heavy. I'm afraid of Pegasus hurting others with main batteries.

So, I will discard Consolidate Power -2, and MOVE: to Galactica, Weapons Control.

ACTION: Fire on the Heavy Raider in Sector 6
