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

BSG (Romo)

Unfortunately I don't draw XOs. I could move to CIC and go fishing for repair cards but I wouldn't be able to play one until I received an XO.

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

BSG (Zarek)

Do you have 2 cards to burn in the Engine Room maybe?

yeah OK. Since I need to go to bed (I have to be at work at 4 frakking am tomorrow) I will take your suggestion and keep the game moving along.

I move to the Engine Room and Discard TI-0 and LS-2 to Activate the Engine Room.

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

Administrative note: Romo's card draw exhausted the Tactics deck. I've reshuffled the discards.

Romo activates the Engine Room! His crisis card is guaranteed to have a jump icon. As it happens, it was in an obliging mood anyway. I hope that doesn't mean you've overloaded the engine or something. Romo's crisis card is:

Sabotage Investigated
Skill Check (9 PB)

Possible interrupts: IC, RO, ASC, Reckless. Everyone, please pass or play. You can also send me COs for the check itself. Hot Dog plays first, Romo last.

I cannot help at all. I have nothing of those colors now.

CURSES.

Wow, this check is a jerk. I can help a little or a lot. I would like to save one of my cards, but we really need to pass this check!

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

BSG (Cally)

Thanks to my lovely weakness (yes, I'm really hating it), I can help a LOT, or none.

(this is why I was so hesitant to release cards, Zarek. Not that they are fab cards, but I can never play one, so card management with this many palyers is a chore).

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

BSG (Baltar)

I can help a little, btw.
