BSG (Athena)
I'm going to move to the Hanger Deck and into an assault raptor and launch Sector 6 and play Best of the Best.
Oh, no, oh, no! Spontaneous poetic exclamations. Lord, spare me college boys in love.

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

Athena discards an Exploit Weakness 5 to reach the Hangar Deck. The real tragedy in the destruction of the CSS Ehrmentraut is that there is no one out there to witness this display of awesomeness. I have standing COs on SPs, everyone passes:
Die roll: 6. All raiders destroyed! There you have it folks, the fleet's Best of the Best is a Cylon. Some people are having a hard time coming to terms with this. Athena's crisis card is:
Divisive Behaviour
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. Zarek plays first, Athena last.

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

I can help a lot on this check.

We have an interrupt! Athena plays Scientific Research 5. Blue is now positive for this check.
Once I've got everyone's interrupt plays, we'll go to the check. Meanwhile, I have some COs for play into the check itself. If Blue being positive changes your play, send me revised COs.

Tally: 29 - 3 = 26. Pass! So much pass. No effect! You didn't even trigger the Consequence, so no one goes to Sickbay.
Finally, the heavy raider and the jump track advance. That concludes Athena's turn. Zarek's cards are going out. Admiral Zarek, when you're ready, please post your move and action.

Oh, forgot to post these:
Administrative note: Athena's card draw exhausted the Engineering deck. I've reshuffled the discards.
Administrative note: Destiny's play into this skill check reduced it to six cards. I've replenished and reshufffled it.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir
BSG (Cally)
Wow. That's a huge overplay. I get that Romo only has 3 cards, and didn't want to spike this check... But what about the other person(s) that spiked the other check??
