BSG (Starbuck)
Not skin of the teeth. I'd like to think, we were highly effecient with our limited resources.
Hey, don't worry about it. Nest full of vampires, you come get me, okay. Box full of puppies, that's more of a judgement call.

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

So I could xo the Doc to fire on the basestar. Or would it be better if I move to command and activate Vipers twice?

activate Vipers twice
Four activations! Right?
Don't forget Weapons Control, you could do some good there, too.
I like all these options, frankly. Whatever sounds fun to you, Hoshi.

I think the basestar is our biggest concern, and with an xo you can fire on it twice (please don't be a cylon).
I don't move and play XO-2 on Doc Cottle.
This means I will encounter Dee. How are you doing, today, Dee?

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

Well, that would be kind of amusing since we just saved him. (But don't be.)

I can easily oblige y'all in not being a Cylon. No one is more human than me.
So now we find out what kind of mood Dee is in? Interesting. Clinically, you know.

I can zoom after that heavy. Doc shooting at the big mama would be best.

Side note for my BSG players (current round and lurkers who play) who play on their ipad. Not sure why I didn't think of this before. I am typically on my iPad. So I made a keyboard shortcut for the b BSG ( Starbuck). Now I type .,m and it pops up"b BSG (Starbuck)".

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

That's a good question there, Dee. What's on your playlist at the moment, Beach Boys, or Blue Oyster Cult?
Dee is Antagonistic.
Dee is quite the nihilist, and has been regaling Hoshi ever since the game started with the many similarites between the emptiness of space and the condition of the human soul. At the end of it, she wanders off and Hoshi draws two trauma. Normally, these are sent to the player on the quiet. There is however one exception, when the trauma draw gets shared with the crew. Alas, this is just such an occasion.
Hoshi draws a Disaster trauma; the Admiral is executed! He reveals his loyalty card:
YOU ARE NOT A CYLON – PERSONAL GOAL (DEVASTATION)
So Hoshi was human, if of somewhat dubious stability. Morale falls by 1. Hoshi discards all his cards and his trauma. The trauma remains unseen; the cards were:
Executive Order 2
Executive Order 2
Guts and Initiative 1
Launch Scout 1
Strategic Planning 4
Repair 1
Scientific Research 5
That concludes Hoshi's turn, and indeed life. Lagawill need a replacement character. We will reasign the Admiralty after you choose, so if you pick a military leader, Apollo or (in an ironic twist) Dee, you will retain the Admiralty. You will also draw three new trauma, after which you may place a token on the new NPC. And that would be (unless you choose him as your replacement) one Brendan "Hot Dog" Costanza, who appears in Weapons Control. Laga, when you're ready, please post your choice.
