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

Cottle has ineed sent COs, which state that he discards a Consolidate Power 1 to move to the President's Office and then activates it. First card sent. Pradmiral Cottle, you may now either draw another Quorum card, or play one from your hand. When you're ready, please post your orders.

Presidential Pardon for Starbuck. Please report to the white courtesy phone in the hangar Deck, Kara, and try to stay out of trouble.

An XO to me soon would be pretty sweet, y'all. Just sayin'.

If we can get through my crisis, of course.

Starbuck again walks free! That Cottle's a handy sort of chap, isn't he? Let's see how he is with IT. Cottle's crisis card is:

Network Computers
Current Player's Choice

Preadmiral Cottle, when you're ready, please post your choice.

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

BSG (Roslon)

Booooooooo, way to ruin all my fun, humans. Can't even let Starbuck rot for an entire turn?? Geez, just trying to give you guys a break here.

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

BSG (Cally)

I could help with the skill check. Option two wouldn't be a total disaster but if we can pass the skill check that would be great.

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

BSG (Starbuck)

Thanks for the pardon. Hope that works for the rest of the game. I'm immune from persecution!!! Wheee. What? It doesn't work that way. Oh well.mat least I'm free now.

I would love to pass option 1. Keep in mind, I was stripped of all my cards.

I don't know, I'm not seeing the big advantage in advancing the jump track right now.

Well, if we could dig for more fuel, that would help. And the skies are empty right now, so, we are relatively safe, at the moment.

Yeah, "relatively safe" says we don't need to rush to run away, to me. Hang out and maybe scout Destinations, try to build Morale, blah blah blah. If we do decrease Jump Prep, will we still be able to jump? That's something to consider.

If we fail the check we get a boarding party. I'm more against boarding parties than I am for increasing the jump track right now, I think.

This crisis card has a jump icon in addition to the crisis. If you choose option 2, the jump track will fall by 1 and then rise by 1, for a net movement of nil. It will remain at 4 (Blue).
