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

Thank you Boomer, that leaves only Admiral Adama for both interrupts and COs for the check itself.

move out and draw fire

BSG

Looks like Baltar's delusional intuition was on line already, in terms of moving the civilian fleet just ahead of a raider move.

I don't interrupt, and have sent conditional orders for card play. I will say that since all the checks seem to be hitting green, I can only contribute a little.

Galactica, Apollo. Moving to Sector 4.

Boomer, Apollo. Engage that damn basestar! (play Green 1 executive order on Boomer)

BSG

Boomer, you've received an executive order. Please post either:

1. A move and action, or
2: 2 actions.

Apollo has requested that you move to Sector 1 and attack the basestar. You may do so, but you are not obliged to do so. If you do attack the basestar, you will damage it on a roll of 8 on the die. If you have a Maximum Firepower card, you may use it to attack the basestar.

Billytea, insent with what I think I can do. I'm at work, and can't see what my cards say, or what the manual says, so I'm working off of memory on a game I am super new on.


Laga - Jun 08, 2009 10:57:41 am PDT #2138 of 26133
You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

BSG

I don't mind if omnis waits until he gets home to decide what to do if it will minimize the likelihood of tactical errors.
