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

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

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

BSG

A couple more pot shots, and down she goes.

It'll take more than a couple. It takes six damaged locations to destroy Galactica. Accounting for Pegasus and the resource tokens, it could take up to ten more hits to destroy Galactica. Or, if the Cylons get lucky, only four.)

We're all out of marshmallows here. Only harshmellows until next jump cycle.

But if they jump, there won't be any toasters in the air. Since we can't have a campfire in space, we need toasters to warm up the marshmellows.

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

I XO-1 Baltar. Give us a miracle.

I pray for a non-catastrophic Crisis.

President Baltar, you have received an XO. You may either move and take an action, or not move and take two actions. When you're ready, please post your orders.

I think we are due for another Cylon Attack crisis card. We had barely any the first half of the game.

crosses fingers!

BSG(Doctor Mirabilis)

Oh, ye of little faith....

First I will send my assistants to steal Leoben's miracle token.

Then I perform the season's greatest dis-disappearing act and use my OPG to raise Population by 2!

(Exactly how my lovely assistants and I accomplish this, you may not want to think about.....)
