BSG (Zarek)
Crew loves itself some Yellow.
Watch the rush to throw down an IC on the next check.
Finally, the basestar launches three more raiders.
On on its way out, the last Raider bumps the wall and because of the Structural Damage, the basestar falls apart! Right?
BSG (Romo Arigato)

that is definitely what happened.

Silly Admiral. If there is one thing Tom Zarek has learned over his long career, if you want something to go boom, you have to do it yourself.
BSG (Athena)
I'm mulling over my possibilities, any suggestions?
BSG (Cally)
Make basestar go boom? XO me to move other RSV? XO Hot Dog? Shoot at Raiders?
BSG (Athena)
I'm going to kind of..compromise.
I'm going
move to Main Batteries
and then
play Raptor Specialist
to get us a new Assault Raptor.

Athena discards an All Hands on Deck 0
to reach Pegasus. The RS she plays is the
Raptor Specialist 3.
And now the fleet has an extra assault raptor!
Now, with everyone stocking up on Politics last turn, you'd think there was something going on. Maybe they all want to run for President. Athena's crisis card is:
Elections Loom
Skill Check (8 YG)
Ironic, really. Athena doesn't get to vote! Morale is at the starting value of 10. Possible interrupts: IC, SR, RO, ASC, Reckless. Everyone, please pass or play. You can also send me COs for the check itself. Zarek plays first, Athena last.
BSG (Zarek)
I can help—obviously most of us can—but I was hoping to use the card for its effect if possible. We overplayed the hell out of the last check; surely someone picked up an IC.
