omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir

My reasoning is that the SoE is giving me an action I otherwise would not have had; everything here is a bonus. If it were my actual turn, I would fire on the basestar.

The SoE is a crisis action, so we should get rid of the crisis. Unless you have some moral reasons for NOT shooting Cylons???

eta: The same could be said of an XO. Should you not go on the offensive with an XO? You position yourself in Weapons, so when you are tapped, you can fire. YOU HAVE BEEN TAPPED! Now open fire. Sir.

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

BSG

Some more orders:

Hot Dog moves to Sector 3.
Apollo plays a Launch Scout 2 on the crisis deck.
Everyone passes on interrupts.

Die roll: 5. Pass! Top card going out now.

Athena fires at the raider in Sector 5.

Die roll: 4. Hit!

Zarek is up next.

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

BSG (Zarek)

I fire on the basestar in Sector 2.

Pass on interrupts.

Everyone else passes too.

Die roll: 1. Miss. So sad. Cally is last.

I happily MOVE from sickbay to COMMAND , in hopes of an XO to boss around the RSV's.

And with that, the State of Emergency comes to a close. Apollo has buried the top crisis, so instead we have this:

Water Shortage
President's Choice

President Apollo, when you're ready, please post your choice.

At least we get a jump icon? I wish we'd been able to keep one of those basestars from firing. Strap in, folks.

Seeing as we just lost Food, the Food hit doesn't look great. But it's a renewable resource.

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

BSG (Romo)

I agree with option 1.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

BSG (Apollo)

I can handle the card loss. Baltar?

BSG (Cally)

I think option 2, especially since 50% of the folks impacted are saying go for it.
