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

BSG (Starbuck)

Hmm. OK. I guess. Although, I'd feel a LOT better if Doc wasn't trying to be Starbuck (post 20117).

Food would be best! An army marches on it's stomach, or something like that.

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

BSG (Adama)

Looking at our NPCs it seems that Kendra might be able to help us with our food situation. I know it didn't go so well last time but I feel it's worth the risk.

I Discard an XO-1 to move to Main Batteries where I will encounter Kendra.

Then I will play XO-1 on Roslin.

I can do that all in one turn, right?

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

BSG (Roslin)

Oh, lords of Kobol, I just remembered that I have to discard 2 cards to activate PO, and I've only got 2 cards, and I want to save them for checks if possible. So I will work the Quorum, but it's going to be less efficient.

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

BSG (Doc)

I don't know what you are talking about, Starbuck.

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

BSG

Adama meets up with Kendra Shaw. Are the civilian ships safe? Her trauma token is:

Disaster

Fortunately for Adama, this is Kendra's trauma token, not his. Much in all as it would be hilarious to lose a second Admiral in this fashion. Anyway, Cain's famed Razor is a hot mess, and won't be doing anything of anything. What we need is an NPC with some emotional stability, no laundry list of issues. In unrelated news, Kendra's replacement is:

Louanne "Kat" Katrainne

Admiral Adama, when you're ready, please let me know what mood she's in.

Roslin has received an XO. For her hirst action, she has activated her title to draw a Quorum card. The card is being sent. President Roslin, when you're ready, please post your second action.

BSG

For her second action, Roslin is playing another Inspirational Speech. The die roll may be modified by an SP. everyone, please pass or play.

BSG

Starbuck plays a Strategic Planning 3. From her hospital bed she contributes her own gift of oratory ("FRAAAAAAK YOOOOOUUUUUU").

Die roll: 7 + 2 = 9. Pass! Morale increases by 1. Though Starbuck's approach to demanding the fleet's attention might be deemed a touch excessive. Starbuck's crisis card is:

Bomb Threat
Current Player's Choice

Admiral Adama, when you're ready, please post your choice.

Not my crisis card, or I'd be out of sickbay.

Not your crisis card, but it wouldn't have got you out of Sickbay.
