Holy crap, Boomer hit something.
Given one of the possible outcomes of this Crisis card is "destroy a raptor and send the current player to Sickbay" I'm curious as to just how she did it too.
Wash: Mal, your dead army buddy's on the bridge! Zoe: He ain't dead. Wash: Oh.

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

I can help with a skill check a little.

OK, this is a 15!! Purple, Red, Blue. That seems like a LOT! There is a raider icon, and a jump icon. But with the basestar destroyed (thank you very much), no raiders can be activated, it's just the 3 in sector 4 with Apollo, right?
The card has an
OR
That says to the effect you loose 1 gas if you roll 5 or under
Seems to me we should do the or part, and roll for a loss of fuel. I think trying to get 15 points will be a bit much.
Procedure questions: So? If we do the OR thing, that's just fuel lost, and no sick bay/ destroyed raptor thing, right? And what is the significance of "Sickbay". The only thing I found in the book said:
Players may move out of “Sickbay” without difficulty, but not the “Brig.” They may only move out of the “Brig” bypassing the skill check listed on the location. The board just says I can only draw one card, instead of my normal 5, but is movement out as simple as my movement for the next roll is to go to ___ location?
Please advise. I look forward to hearing peoples thoughts on this.
eta to remove quote of card, as requested. Sorry about that.

O_A, could you take out the card text? It's copyrighted, and I understand the game's creator doesn't want it being posted publicly.

The significance of Sickbay is primarily that if you're still there at the start of your turn, you only get to draw 1 Skill Card. You may move to any other location (except the Brig) freely.

billytea, can we just do the OR? Or am I misunderstanding that?

You can indeed. Your choice is either the 15 PRB Skill Check, or the die roll. Rolling the die risks only fuel.

Cool. Just want to make sure I was understanding it right. So BSG gang? What do we think? Laga said she could help a little. I'm thinking 15 would be a bit much. I'm guessing folks are in bed, so I'll wait until the morning.
