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

BSG

The XO allows you either Move + Action, or 2 Actions. You're doing move + action. The Maximum Firepower allows you to use your one action to attack 4 times.

PS: Do you intend to play an interrupt for any of your attacks?

Um, do I do the rolls, or do you BillyTea? I should be home in about an hour if I do the rolls. Or I can use the dice app on my iPhone if you want t /geek

I do the rolls. Which, having received interrupts, I will now do:

Attack 1: 1. Miss.
Attack 2: 6. Miss.
Attack 3: 5. Miss.
Attack 4: 2. Miss.

Let the record show that Boomer couldn't hit the side of a barn basestar.

Next up: crisis!

Gorrum it! Guess I'm not used to that red button. Raptors don't have them, y'know!

So... wait. You were just flying up to the basestar and making 'pew pew' noises while pointing at it? On the plus side, I think we know why it didn't bother shooting back.

Boomer to CAG Apollo. That's a tough one sir. But based on my observation here: omnis_audis " Gaming 1: You are likely to be eaten by a grue" Jun 8, 2009 8:47:51 am PDT failing might not be so bad. No clue what the -1 morale impact is like this early, as this is my first time playing and all.

As for the skill check. I'm afraid I am not able to help.

Wait? That's not how it works? FRAK! NOooo! Clearly I was doing SOMETHING! I did get a 5 & 6 in there. Those other two rolls might have been some 'pew pew' moments.

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