I want to torture you. I used to love it, and it's been a long time. I mean, the last time I tortured someone, they didn't even have chainsaws.

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.

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

BSG (Zarek)

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.

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

BSG (Cally)

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.

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

BSG (Romo)

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

We have one last interrupt: Athena plays a Restore Order 3. Skill check effects have no effect here. The check begins!

Edit: I want to check something with a couple of players before we start.
