BSG (Grumpy Cottle)
OK, then. Well, I guess it's nice that I was right to trust my instincts even if it didn't do any good.
Well, I don't feel like Research is going to help us much at the moment. And I don't draw Green, so no XO this turn. Hm.
I think this would probably be a good opportunity to try out my Ability, but I should probably get myself somewhere more useful first. Where do we want me, Weapons Control? Command? Somewhere? None of these allies seem like they'd do us a lot of good right now whatever their disposition.
BSG (Roslin)
Hey, your instincts were spot-on! That's good to know for the future. Trust Cottle's instincts.
I suppose our main problem right now is the basestar.
BSG (Hoshi)
So CIC would be good. On the other hand, I'd be happy to launch a nuke on my turn.
BSG (Cottle)
A nuke seems like overkill at this point, but who knows what my crisis might bring?
I'm going to think a few more hours, feel free to discuss where I should go and what I should do meanwhile.
BSG (Roslin)
We could probably get by just shooting at the thing.
BSG (Hoshi)
Last game I didn't get to nuke anything. And hey! I might hit Starbuck. Wait, that came out wrong.
BSG (Starbuck)
Too soon for a nuke, and not enough in the sector.
I would suggest looking at the civvies to see if they need saving, and move under the protection of a RSV.
Or move to CIC and shoot at the basestar.
BSG (Never play poker with a man named Doc)
OK, I will
discard LS-1
to
move to Pegasus CIC
and
use my Ability to Treat Hoshi
from an entirely different ship, because I am just that good a doctor, dammit!
2G please.
BSG
Ok, at this point I'm afraid wee need to pause for a bit. I left the files at home today, thanks to a somewhat chaotic morning. Doc Cottle, I imagine you'll want to see your draw before you decide what to send Hoshi, but you may if you wish send me COs for your action (which can conditional on your Green draw).
For that matter, you can also send me at least partial COs for cards to send to Hoshi if you so desire.
