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

How are the odds for shooting heavies? Aren't they about to board? Can you get to those sectors? If they board, they don't go away with jump.

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

BSG (Zarek)

That is a good point, actually. An activation would put 2 Centurions on board. Hot Dog would have to do some fancy flying to get to Sector 5 or 6 and then unload on one of them. Better chance of hitting them too, since they die on a 7 or 8.

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

BSG (Romo)

Either way let's make some fireworks.

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

I have Hot Dog's orders:

Move: Play Full Throttle 2 to move to Sector 6 and fire at the heavy raider there. Everyone passes on interrupts.

Fire 1: 1. Miss.

Action: Play Maximum Firepower 4 for MORE SHOOTINGS.

Fire 2: 4. Miss.
Fire 3: 4. Miss.
Fire 4: 5. Miss.

For his last shot, Hot Dog plays a Strategic Planning 4.

Fire 5: 5 + 2 = 7. Hit! Well, obviously that's highly suspicious right there, blowing up a heavy raider without even checking what was on board. It could have been Sixes! We all like the Sixes, right? Hot Dog's crisis card is:

Cylon Accusation
Skill Check (10 YGP)

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

Nice shooting, Hot Dog!

I can help on this check. But if we fail, Romo can get Hot Dog out!

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

BSG (Baltar)

Ooh, that was exciting! Hooray, boarding party averted! For now.

I can help a little.

We can still get boarded from the one in Sector 5. Wish we'd gotten a frakking jump icon. With the Raiders advancing, we're likely to lose Civvie G in the next Crisis.

But we're not getting boarded right now, which is nice.

Nice shooting, Hot Dog. Let's keep you in the air, and out of the brig. I can help some with the check. Pass on interrupts. Hopefully, someone has an IC.

I do have an IC-3 which I will now play
