Damn it! You know what? I'm sick of this crap. I'm sick of being the guy who eats insects and gets the funny syphilis. As of this moment, it's over. I'm finished being everybody's butt monkey!

Yipee! Ride em Cowgirl! I got my trigger finger all warmed up. Now let's DANCE!

My viper changes direction by doing that cool flippy trick that is so easy in space, and I head back towards the basestar!

Look out boys, here I come!

MOVE: Fly me to Sector 1!

ACTION: Fire on Raider #1

Since I started in space, do I get the second action? Or is that only on my turn? I think that ability only counts on my turn. But does "space" count as a location? Did I truly "move" in BSG paradigm? If you buy into that arguement, then my second action would be fire on the other raider. If not, I will happily wait until my turn, or, another XO.

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

Or is that only on my turn?

Yep.

I must follow the Colonial Constitution or whatever we call our law things!

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

Correct, it only applies on your own turn. And no, movement between space sectors is still movement. You still get one shot:

Fire 1 and only: 2. Miss.

It's only what they expected, Starbuck, you need to be more devious! Perhaps you should:

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

BSG (Doc)

WTF, Starbuck? I thought you were an ace Cylon fighter!

Whatever, this would be an excellent skill check to pass. Do we have the skills to pay the bills, as probably no one on Galactica would say? I could do my bit, our Admiral is still grieving for Hoshi, so he's no help. President, Starbuck, can we put down Jean-Ralphio?

Aim for his financial statements, he's definitely weak there.

What the hell? Is my trigger finger busted or something? Too much ale? I demand a recount! Or a new die. Or something.

Hey, I think we should go for this check. I can help out some.

I will just assume Laura can help since she didn't discard all her cards on her turn.

Option 1

And IC-3 while I'm at it.

I can help! Let's send Jean-Ralphio back to Entertainment 720 where he belongs.

Running tally: 9 + Destiny. Cottle is last to play.
