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

Pegashield it is, and they hit the Airlock. Well, that's just blowing up the stable door after the horse has bolted. Finally, the jump track advances. That concludes Zarek's turn. Cally's cards are going out. Cally, when you're ready, please post your move and action.

Wait, stop the presses! Sorry, there are two more decisions for Hot Dog to make.

1. Who gets his other loyalty card?
2. Who will be the new mutineer?

Hot Dog, when you're ready, please post your choices.

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

BSG (Cally)

Dang it, with second Cylon revealed, I don't get to shoot anyone in the face.

The decision is made! Baltar gets Hot Dog's loyalty card. The new Mutineer is... Traitor in Chief, Tom Zarek! Zarek draws a new mutiny card. As the Mutineer, he can have two cards at a time, so no brigging just yet. However, you can't be plotting the overthrow of the old order when you are the old order, so he steps down as Admiral. The new Admiral is... Hmm, no military leaders left, no pilots either. We have a Cylon, a cult leader, a grease monkey and President Retiree. Let's check the succession list.

The fleet will now be led by... Admiral Grease Monkey! Congratulations, Cally. There are two nukes and they are all yours.

Huh? But? I'm just a ... Well, I suppose that's what happens when a grease monkey bosses around RSV's. So be it.

Does that conclude the previous turn? Is it my turn yet?

Too slow! Prepare for all Cally's plans to be revealed!

Move: FTL Control
Action: Activate FTL Control

1 Population is at risk! Cally plays a Strategic Planning 5 on the die roll.

Die roll: 7 + 2 = 9. Pass! The entire fleet makes it. We clear the board, except for Athena's assault raptor. She opts to stay in space.

We have one last thing to deal with, Thirty Three's Relentless Pursuit. No basestar or civvie has been destroyed since this rule came into effect. (In fact, one civvie was destroyed by the raider activation on Thirty Three, but the special rule only comes into effect after the new ships have been placed.) Thirty Three has been reshuffled into the crisis deck.

Destinations have been sent to Admiral Cally (get used to it). When you're ready, please post your choice.

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

Well done, Admiral (what) Cally! Now let's get to Kobol as quickly as we frakking can.
