The Admiral responds to the riot by killing it with fire. Fuel and Population fall by 1!
Next, the basestars fire:
Basestar 1: 5. Hit!
Basestar 2: 3. Miss.
(Anyone want to play a Calcs and make it a hit? Don't be shy)
There's one hit. Cally, as current player, you choose where to allocate it: Galactica or Pegasus? If you choose Pegasus, it will be destroyed.
BSG (Gaeta)
Man, what is with these almost-hits. Go big or go home, basestars.
Buh-bye, Pegasus!
BSG (Helo)
you know, metalman may have a point. Chances are good with this jump we will enter the endgame. Do we need Pegasus for that?
BSG(Chiefed Up)
Do we need another battlestar for the MASSIVE CYLON ASSAULT? Let me think.....
It's a crapshoot taking damage on Galactica, but is it better than losing our other ship completely?
BSG (President)
I would hate to see her go. To have the fleet cut in half would surely have a mental effect on us humans, and give a rallying cry to the Cylons. Keeping her, limping along, could be a drain on resources. If you want to keep her, then XO me, and I will help her along. I don't want to save the beast, just to see her done in the next crisis card.
BSG (President)
Let us all bow our heads in a moment of silence. There were a lot of brave souls on that ship. They may be lost, but they are not forgotten.
BSG
Pegasus has been destroyed! Galactica continues alone. 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.

Did we come to a decision about jumping early? I feel we're in a really bad spot here. Any other bright ideas?
