aw hell. Mommy & Daddy are fighting.

Personally, I wouldn't move out of sector 6
vs
Which is why I think Boomer should move into sector 1

But if I move into sector 1, that would be my final action, and then the raiders would stay there with 3 vs 1 + basestar. Strategically speaking, would it make sense to HOLD in sector 6, let CAG go from sector 5 to 4 to defend the civvies, let the Raiders move to sector 2. Then on my next turn, I can lead the RedShirtViper (RSV) into sector 1 to shoot the heck out of the basestar?

(again, still new to this, so, not entirely sure. Sorry for taking so much time on the first turn)

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

still new to this

Oh me too. Were it not for Random's hint I would have no frakkin clue what to do during a cylon attack.

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

You're Gaius Baltar. What's wrong with the time-honoured practice of shrieking like a little girl and rushing to your quarters for a fresh pair of pants?

I feel like we are waiting on me, and I'm waiting on clarification of advice from conflicting parties. I'm going with CAG on this one, and holding in Sector 6. I'm not leaving my wingman, even if it is a RSV. I learned something from Maverick!

Game Master, read me my fates. What do the gods say is my crisis.

Keep Tabs on Visitor
Current player chooses

Boomer, what is your choice?

Hey, a huge part of this game is managing conflicting advice from the rest of the folks. I mean ,in the show Adama had Saul to advise him.

I'm going with the Skill Check.

Skill Check it is! This one is a 12 YGP.

Before playing into the check, I need decisions on interrupts from everyone, per the email I sent out. Twelve hours to send them in (emailed to me or posted here). You can send me conditional orders for your cards for the Skill Check at the same time if you want.

After interrupts are in, the order in which cards will be played into the check is as follows:

Destiny Deck
Adama
Roslin
Baltar
Apollo
Boomer

Adama puts one card in.

Just for morale, really, because I doubt we'll pass it and even if we fail the check we might not lose population.

Contrary to what you all may think, Gaius Baltar can help. A little.
