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

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I have no idea where I picked it up.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
I think Cool Beans is a pretty widespread north american expression. For sure it was in use in Chicagoland in the 80's.

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

I have the files again. Cottle has given Hoshi the Treatment. Cottle draws 2 Green cards and has passed two cards to Hoshi.
Hey, remember how I compared this game's first turn to game 11 (I think it was), where Apollo got executed on the very first turn and came back as a Cylon Starbuck? Those were good times. In completely unrelated news, Cottle's crisis card is:
Defending a Prisoner
Skill Check (11 YG)
Possible interrupts: IC, SR, Reckless. Everyone, please pass or play.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
BSG (Roslin)
We always said smoking'll kill you, Cottle. Looks like we're in good shape to pass this one, though, since you drew some Green. I can help too.

Pass on interrupts
I'm grateful for help from all of you! This turn, everybody lives! I hope.
Anyway, yeah, I can help. An SR would let me help more, if there's one lurking out there.

Everyone passes on interrupts. I have a number of COs too:
Defending a Prisoner:
11 YG
Destiny:
2 cards
Hoshi:
2 cards
Starbuck:
1 card

That's everyone now:
Defending a Prisoner:
11 YG
Destiny:
2 cards
Hoshi:
2 cards
Starbuck:
1 card
Roslin:
1 card
Cottle:
2 cards
Cards played:
Consolidate Power 1
Consolidate Power 2
Consolidate Power 2
Iron Will 0
Executive Order 2
At Any Cost 3
Full Throttle 1
Repair 2
Tally: 10 - 3 = 7. Fail! However, the end result is exactly 4 points short of the pass level. The Iron Will kicks in - no effect! Cottle lives!
So does the heavy raider, which now activates and moves to Sector 6. The jump track also advances. That concludes Cottle's turn. Hoshi's cards are going out. Admiral Hoshi, when you're ready, please post your move and action.
