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.

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

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.

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.

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.

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

BSG (Baltar)

Dun dun DUN What will he choose?

I'll just throw this out there - running a cult, not altogether different from being President. Executive experience and all.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

BSG (Apollo)

Yeah, I am so not choosing to execute myself. I choose option 2 and discard CP1, CP2, TI0, MF3

Not so fast, Mr President sir. Athena steps in... For Love! She draws a Treachery card to allow you discard one card fewer. When you're ready, please post your choice of four discards (or which card you retrieve or however you want to play it).
