Yes I can help a lot. Can anyone play an IC so that I can help avoid a spike?

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

BSG (Adm. Louis Hoshi)

Sorry, no IC here. But I agree, one would be helpful.

I have COs in, and my choice right now is just waiting to see if someone can play an IC on the check, as long as that can happen then I'm going to go with OPTION 1. I can help a lot on this check.

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

BSG (Apollo)

Hey, look at that, I've got an IC-4.

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

BSG

Ok, the order of things has been a little mixed up, but: with the news that there is an IC out there, Cottle chooses Option 1. Apollo plays an IC-4; Cottle adds in an SR-4. Blue is now positive for this check. For that reason, I'm going to ignore COs I'd already received, as this may change people's play. Everyone else passes on interrupts.

Earth in Ruins: 9 YGP(B)

Destiny: 2 cards
Leoben:
Baltar:
Hoshi:
Apollo:
Helo:
Cottle: (COs received)

Leoben starts the check.

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

BSG (Leoben)

Well, I was saving these parts for an upgrade, but if it'll make people happy(or less unhappy, at least)....

I play Raptor Specialist - 4.

Hoshi plays an XO-1, and Apollo plays 0 cards. Running tally: 5 + Destiny. Helo is next.

Let's add in Cottle and Destiny:

Earth in Ruins: 9 YGP(B)

Destiny: Executive Order 1, A Better Machine 3
Leoben: 0 cards
Baltar: Raptor Specialist 4
Hoshi: Executive Order 1
Apollo: 0 cards
Helo: Declare Emergency 5
Cottle: Calculations 4

Tally: 15 - 3 = 12. Pass! But don't worry, we have some lovely parting gifts for you. First, you lose 1 Morale, even with a pass. Next, A Better Machine 3 takes effect. Two more Treachery cards get shuffled into the destiny deck.

Finally, the jump track advances. Don't say I never do anything for you. That almost concludes Cottle's turn. One last order of business: Cottle still has 11 cards in hand and must discard 1. Doc Cottle, when you're ready, please post your choice of discard.

Meanwhile, Leoben has opted to draw 2Y/1B. Leoben, when you're ready, please post your move and action.
