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

Administrative note: Cain's card draw exhausted the Tactics deck. I've reshuffled the discards.

I am in position to be XO'd for a miracle! Or, y'know, you could throw another nuke or use CIC.....

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

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.

Blind jump would clear everything.

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

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.

If Cottle can't XO, you're our last shot at a miracle until Leoben's turn at the earliest.

Our wings are not tired

I cannot XO.

Thrive to spite them

BSG (Helon)

You could go to the Research lab and draw some cards. Miracle might happen that way .

I will laugh SO hard when he fulfills his personal victory, and turns on y'all. It will be so entertaining. I can hear the cries of humans now, "but... but... he was our friend? how could he do this to us?!?"

I do hope for a nice Raider Activation. Maybe some basestars opening fire. Galacatica already has 2 damaged locations! A couple more pot shots, and down she goes. Too bad Scar isn't still with us. Golly, he was good.
