BSG (Helo)
I was told I could reveal this - I had totally other plans for my turn until Baltar came up with the Airlock and then I just went with it.
Oh my plan to force the humans to lose cards after I gave up some of mine to help them worked.
waves at Hoshi. Glad I have the Cylon stamp of Approval.

One final piece of housekeeping: Helo discards his mutiny card too, of course. It was:
Feed the People
BSG
Ok, this really is the final piece of housekeeping. Helo passes his two remaining loyalty cards to another player. Since Cain has shown such an interest in them, she is the lucky recipient. Cards are going out now.
BSG (Doc)
Sorry for the delay, I teach on Tuesdays and I missed that it was my turn. I do not have an XO so I think the best I can do is a
TREATMENT on Cain. 2 Purple is the draw.
BSG
Cards sent. When you're ready, please let me know which cards to send to Cain.
BSG
Cain's cards have been sent. On to Cottle's crisis, which is:
Training Snafu
Skill Check (8 GR)
If this check fails, three vipers are damaged. There is currently only 1 undamaged viper. However, there are also 2 assault raptors. Per page 11 of the rules:
"Assault raptors are treated as vipers, not raptors, for all game effects. When a game effect instructs players to choose a viper to launch, damage, destroy, place, or activate, the player taking an action at that time may choose a viper or an assault raptor to use for that game effect. ...If a player must choose a viper to be damaged and he chooses an assault raptor, that assault raptor is destroyed."
This means that if the check fails, the last remaining viper will be damaged and both assault raptors will be destroyed. Possible interrupts: IC, SR, RO, ASC, Reckless. Everyone, please pass or play. You can also send me COs for the check itself. Leoben plays first, Cottle last.
BSG (Leoben)
edit: Oops was looking at the positive colors wrong. I can help with an interrupt if someone else has some blue to play. Otherwise I am helpless.
BSG (Cain)
I have some Blue to play but I would only be able to help a little, and it might be better to use the card as an action. If I'm the only person who would play Blue, it's probably not worth it. Baltar?
BSG(Doctor Grumpus)
Won't do me any good. Did I make a suggestion about that before Cottle decided who to treat?
