I kinda want to see the Centurion leaping into her viper, though. Is that wrong?
If that's wrong, then wrongness has lost all meaning.
We have two people who can't help, and two votes to TANK. If the Admiral votes to TANK as well then we'll go straight to resolving it.

Whoa Starbuck! look out behind, er, above you!
TANK
BSG
The check, she is tanked. Destiny reveals:
Executive Order 1
Calculations 3
Tally: 0 - 4 = -4. Yeah, you weren't getting any favours from that direction. Starbuck lands in Sickbay. One raptor is destroyed, presumably because that's what the Centurion used to beat her.
Nature abhors a vacuum, so I figure that its stance when watching Battlestar Galactica is more or less summed up by Munch's The Scream. It may also explain why the basestar reacts to Starbuck's disappearance by launching three more raiders. That concludes Starbuck's turn. Roslin's cards are going out. President Roslin, when you're ready, please post your move and action.

All right, I've got an unbelievably shitty hand, but I'll make the best of it: let's drop this PP-3 and protect Food on this frakking turn and then discard CP-1 and StP-2 to activate the President's Office and get some Resources up.
BSG (Roslin)
Friends! Capricans! Spacemen! Lend me your earpieces! The ship is under attack, you're all hungry, the Admiral was recently executed, and our only pilot is recovering from grave injuries sustained in battle.
But, you know, it gets better and stuff.
How's that for an Inspirational Speech ?
BSG
Roslin has played an Inspirational Speech. The die roll to raise Morale may be modified by an SP. Everyone, please pass or play.

I have passes from everyone.
Die roll: 2. Fail. Not very inspiring after all. Maybe next time you should try turning the mic on.
Time for Roslin's Visions, and we sorted those out while waiting for the die roll. Roslin's crisis card has no trouble finding the mic; it is:
Threat of Super Nova
Skill Check (10 GRB)
Possible interrupts: IC, Reckless. Everyone, please pass or play.
