Damn it! You know what? I'm sick of this crap. I'm sick of being the guy who eats insects and gets the funny syphilis. As of this moment, it's over. I'm finished being everybody's butt monkey!

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

BSG (Apollo)

Ok, so I can xo hot dog for more sky damage or zarek for increasing resources. What say you all?

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

BSG (Zarek)

I vote for me because I am me. Also because Population is our highest resource.

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

BSG (Baltar)

Phew. I don't know. How confident do we feel in Jumping with the next Crisis? I'm not too sanguine, but that's not based on anything. And how much do we care about Civvie G over there?

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Hmm, ok. In the interest of time (I'm on the road) I'm going to go shared and play my xo on zarek. I will then activate the office to draw 2y.

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

BSG

Admiral Zarek, you have received an XO. You may either move and take an action, or not move and take two actions. When you're ready, please post your orders.

BSG (Zarek)

Finally! I've been waiting so long to do this.

First, I play my Mutiny Card to raise Food. I place the Raiders in Sector 3. (Apollo, if we get a Raider activation and no jump icon, activate these Raiders first.)

Second, I play Scout for Fuel-6 and hope someone's got a better plan than blindly sending a raptor out into space.

Zarek has played the Scout for Fuel 6. The die roll may be modified by an SP. Everyone, please pass or play.

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

BSG (Romo)

BSG

Everyone passes on SPs.

Die roll: 7. Pass! Fuel increases to 7.

That finishes Zarek's XO. Apollo uses his special ability to activate the President's Office and draw 2 Yellow. Cards sent.

Now, it's just as well that Fuel was raised, as you may need it now. Apollo's crisis card is:

The Circle
President's Choice

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

BSG (Zarek)

Whew! Two resources raised with no consequences (bye, Civvie G, though).

As for the Crisis, er, can you handle the card loss or trust anyone to be President? We're about to hit Sleeper so who even knows.
