I discard RT-0 to move to Main Batteries and fire on Sector 4.
Someone help me aim!!
Yeah, but you're an amateur fry cook and I come from a long line of fry cooks that don't live past 25.

Guess I missed a year or so, good to see you all still playing BSG. I'm currently halfway through watching through it for the first time so maybe after that I'll try joining in.
(I haven't even been supporting anyone in email! Terrible lurker. I was reminded of this place because I saw a post from Pete on reddit and my brain reconnected some cobwebby dots.)
... and so that this isn't entirely natter, any Binding of Isaac players here? Some gifs released from the new version look AMAZING, with homing finally affecting stuff like lasers and Brimstone.

Good to see you, Thomas! I haven't even heard of Binding of Isaac. Must go google.

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

Excellent! I shall keep you in mind.
Meanwhile, apologies for the delay. Our modem packed it in and I was stuck for internet connection yesterday. Everyone passes on SPs.
Die roll: 4. Two raiders destroyed!
At this point, a Calcs could be used to reduce the roll to a 3, which would mean instead that Hot Dog is shot down, leaving the four civvies alone with the raiders. There is perhaps the possibility that someone out there would prefer that result. I will pause to see if anyone wants to play one. Everyone, please pass or play.

The Binding of Isaac looks very interesting.

Apologies for the delay there. My fault. The result stands, two raiders destroyed (but not Scar). Apollo then uses his Forward Thinker ability to activate the Quorum Chamber. He draws one Quorum card and plays:
Unsavoury Connections
Apollo discards two cards randomly. They are:
All Hands on Deck 0
Evasive Manoeuvre 2
He then draws 2 Treachery and opts to raise Fuel by 1.
This turn has really dragged, which is mostly my fault. We need to pick up the pace. Which episode was best for unrelenting pace? The first one did pretty well, I think. Apollo's crisis card is:
Thirty Three
Cylon Attack
Raiders are about to activate, so pilots, get in your EM COs.

Right, prepare to feel the fury. Raiders activate! Apollo has opted to do Sector 4 first.
Scar 1: 4. Miss.
Scar 2: 8. Assault raptor destroyed!
But Apollo plays an
Evasive Manoeuvre 1.
Scar shoots again:
Scar 2a: 4 - 2 = 2. Miss.
Next we have the raiders in Sector 6, who fire at the two RSVs:
Raider 1: 4. Miss.
Raider 2: 7. Viper damaged!
Raider 3: 5. Viper damaged!
No more EMs are forthcoming. That leaves the last raider free to destroy the CSS Ehrmentraut! Its contents were:
2 Population
The Ehrmentraut is large; it contains multitudes.
Next, we add some more ships. No more raiders though (boo). That concludes Apollo's turn. Athena has opted to draw 1 Green, 1 Red and 1 Blue. Athena, when you're ready, please post your move and action.
