I'd rather stay home and watch television. It's often funnier than killing stuff.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

BSG (Apollo)

I don't distrust the Admiral either, I just thought it would be a good opportunity to get an additional choice.

Too bad we hadn't picked up the extra fuel at the last stop or it would make this choice easier. As it is, I think I have to go with Option 1, much as that hurts.

BSG (Baltar)

Oh, yay for no effect! That may change my recommendation, but I see Apollo has bolded a choice, so, never mind, I'm sure we'll be fine, we can make more Morale if we have to.

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

Morale falls to 7. That concludes Apollo's turn. Athena has opted to draw 1 Green, 1 Red and 1 Blue for her draw. Athena, when you're ready, please post your move and action.

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

BSG (Zarek)

I don't distrust the Admiral either, I just thought it would be a good opportunity to get an additional choice.

Agreed.

Too bad we hadn't picked up the extra fuel at the last stop or it would make this choice easier.

Yeah, but then we'd be down a Viper. This damn game.

Orders from Athena: play an Executive Order 1 on Romo Lampkin. Romo, 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.

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

BSG (Romo Arigato)

I will discard FTH-0 to move back to Main Batteries

maybe I'll get to make with the pew pew pew this time. Unfortunately I have to pass on taking an action.

Alas, hands shall now go unforced. But since so many of the crew are currently sitting around and waiting for something to shoot at, I simply must oblige. Athena's crisis card is:

The Olympic Carrier
Skill Check (11 YGR)

What, you thought it'd be Cylon ships? This is more fun, in that will they/won't they kind of way. 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.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

BSG (Apollo)

I interrupt! This has all been very nice, failing checks and whatnot, but I'd rather, you know, pass them. So I play IC3 to keep our hypothetical Cylon honest and to keep us from overplaying or underplaying ourselves.
