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

BSG

Everyone else passes too.

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

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

BSG (Cally)

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.

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

BSG (Zarek)

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.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

BSG (Baltar)

Oh, sure, people who have no cards in danger are for the discards. Big surprise.

As it happens, I can bear the sacrifice, President Apollo. Save the twinkies/bottles of Pellegrino.

I have COs from Apollo: take the discard. Apollo discards:

Force Their Hand 0
Evasive Manoeuvre 1

Baltar discards:

Red Tape 0
Support the People 1
Iron Will 0

Next, the basestars activate again:

Basestar 1: 4. Hit!
Basestar 2: 1. Miss.

One hit at least. Baltar has opted to damage Pegasus. The basestar hits:

Pegasus CIC

That concludes Baltar's turn. Romo is up next, and as the basestars missed the Main Batteries, he gets his full complement of cards. Romo, when you're ready, please post your move and action.
