BSG (Pres)
I do not move,
play XO-1 on Hot Dog, and then use my shazam powers to activate the Quorum.
BSG
Hot Dog has received an XO. I have COs from him:
Activate the Research Lab twice to draw 2 Purple.
Cards are going out now.
Apollo then uses his special ability to activate the Quorum Chamber. A Quorum card is going out. He may now draw another Quorum card, or play one from his hand. President Apollo, when you're ready, please post your orders.
BSG (Prez)
I think I'll go all presidential and
Assign Mission Specialist to Cally.
BSG
Apollo gets to draw 2 Yellow for that Quorum card play. Cally is now Mission Specialist! That's bound to cause friction with the higher-ups, letting a deck specialist play around with the navigation instruments. Apollo's crisis card is:
Labour Dispute
President's Choice
President Apollo, when you're ready, please post your choice.
BSG (Apollo)
Ick. Those are not great choices. Thus the crises, I suppose. What do you guys think?
BSG (Zarek)
Well, geez, both those options suck royally.
BSG (Cally)
It always seems we run so close to ruining out of gas. I'd be hesitant to drop a fuel. I do not envy your position, to make this choice. I think option 1 is the least bad.
BSG (Baltar)
Are we getting a Basestar, is that a thing that is happening?
I think Option 1 might be the lesser suckage.
BSG (Cally)
Forgot to say...
I think I'll go all presidential and Assign Mission Specialist to Cally.
Um. Wow. Really? Thank you Mr. President. As long as the Admiral understands, this is to help us pick from 3 options. I am not bucking for your job. I'm just a wrench jockey, fixing shit that's broken.
