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

Things to Remember When Picking a Character, I guess.

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

It's one of the things I look at. Card draws. Especially if I am lower in the pecking order. Want to have a card draw that isn't the same as everyone above me. Nothing worse than nobody drawing blue.

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

It's been brought to my attention that I neglected to update Athena's location on her last turn, when she moved to the President's Office. That might make a difference, so before Athena goes ahead and acts on the XO, Dr Baltar, could you confirm whether you still wish to play an XO on Athena in her correct location?

Oh! That definitely makes a difference. I will try to think fast...

OK, I will still play the same XO-1 but in the general direction of Cally. Launch our remaining vipers, Cally! Attack!

Or, you know, whatever you want, I'm not the boss of you, but that seems like it would help us out.

BSG (Cally)

Um. What? Oh. Yes sir!

MOVE: none.

Which gives me Two actions!

ACTION #1: Galactica to RSV's in sector 5, please fly to sector 4 ASAP.

ACTION #2: Hey guys, while you are in sector 4, go ahead and open fire on Scar. Lets kill that MoFo! Shoot him in his toasty face, ya hear?

Everyone passes on interrupts:

Fire 1: 2. Miss.
Fire 2: 5. Miss.

Ah! How unfortunate. It feels like something was going wrong there. Baltar's crisis card is:

Weapon Malfunction
Skill Check (11 PRB)

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

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

Well, that's not what we need right now. I can help.

Do we want brown to count positive? Athena, that might help you play into the check. Don't recall anyone else having any brown cards.

That would be nice for me. Risky, though, right?
