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

BSG

Well, that's one way to make it back to Galactica without burning a card. Not saying it's the BEST way. But. eh.

True! This way, you can burn four cards!

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

BSG (Roslin)

Hey, Adama already has a lot of cards anyway! He would have had to discard a few of them.

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

BSG (Doc)

Hm, I may be able to do something about that.

But first - is CIC still the best place for me? I mean, basestar to shoot at, so probably, but I could move now so if I'd be extra useful somewhere else, lemme know.

So there are certainly a lot of cylons who need shooting. And Bill languishing in Sickbay. Is there other stuff that needs doing?

CIC is more powerful than Weapons Control, although we do risk hurting civvies. Right now we have one person on each ship and one in the sky, and I think that's a pretty good distribution. With only four people, this is probably a good way to distribute ourselves, especially to avoid dropping cards hopping back and forth.

Yeah, I think for my Move I will play a PP-5 to protect Food and for my Action I will play a State of Emergency for awesome fun times for everyone.

BSG (The Cottle)

The first SoE action is mine, yes?

If that is true I will fire on the basestar and reinforce my aim with this SP-3 because holding onto cards is for suckers and shooting basestars rocks.

And if that is not true I will wait quietly for other people to do some stuff.

Awesome fun times for all! Dr Feelgood has happy pills for everyone. The PP-5 negates the Food loss from the SoE. Everyone may either move or take an action. Adama, Starbuck and Roslin, you can all send me COs for your orders if you wish. Doc Cottle, you're up first.

Edit: like that!

Cottle activates Pegsus CIC, with added SP-3:

Die roll: 3 + 2 = 5. Hit! (Without the SP, we'd be damaging Pegasus instead.) Let's see what you got:

Structural Damage! All further attacks on the basestar are at +2 to hit.

Adama is up next.

Whoa, clever move, Cottle!

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

BSG (Starbuck)

Wow, doc sure had some nice cards there! Way to go.
