BSG (Toasty Hoshi)
Cain, when you're ready, please post your move and action.
Hmm. With all those birds in the air, will she blindly hit the FTL button? Take a gamble that the one and only destination card will drain all their fuel? How cool would that be? C'mon Cain. Blind jump! You know you want to.
BSG
Administrative note: Cain's card draw exhausted the Tactics deck. I've reshuffled the discards.
BSG(Doctor Fertility)
I am in position to be XO'd for a miracle! Or, y'know, you could throw another nuke or use CIC.....
BSG (Cain)
Well. That's not good for us.
We do need a miracle, but is it enough? I could nuke one basestar, but is it enough? I could shoot at one basestar, but is it enough? With no protection and no time to repair and launch everything, a miracle may be our only option unless we can clear the Raiders off the board somehow.
BSG (Toasty Hoshi)
unless we can clear the Raiders off the board somehow.
Blind jump would clear everything.
BSG (Leoben)
A blind jump might be humanity's only chance.
BSG (Cain)
I forgot that was an option, actually. I thought we had to be under 6 Distance.
A blind jump after a miracle could save us, but a blind jump now would kill us.
So my options now are miracle, blow up a basestar, or ask Cottle to clear more Raiders. We have a Cylon turn next, and Cottle likely can't XO, so let's strategize.
BSG(Doctor Planner)
If Cottle can't XO, you're our last shot at a miracle until Leoben's turn at the earliest.
