Tally: 13 - 15 = -2. Fail!
Cally can use her Quick Fix ability to remove the Calcs-5, but that still only raises it to 3. The result stands. Morale falls by 1!
As if you didn't have enough problems, the Centurion gets its first marching orders. On the plus side, the jump track advances. That concludes Cally's turn. Baltar's cards are going out. Baltarnate, when you're ready, please post your move and action.

Just to let y'all know, I'll be trapped in a hallucination for most of the day.
BSG (R.O.M.O)
You should listen to everything the nice lady tells you.
BSG (Cally)
We should go after that stowaway before she kills us all.
So Morgan Webb is going to be joining the Penny Arcade guys for their live D&D session at Pax East. [link]

Okay! What do we need to do? Skies are clear, but we've got two cylon turns in a row, so, that'll be fun. No one is actually in the Armory at this point. Who's our President again, Apollo? Can you do anything about this centurion? Are those our only options for centurion control?
So, I could move to the Armory and take a shot. I could move to the Armory and have somebody else do something else. I could move somewhere else and have someone else do something else. Or I suppose I could stay where I am and have someone else do something else.
Bear in mind, it would probably be a good idea for me to start collecting miracle tokens whenever I can, so perhaps I could move to the Armory, Cally could join me and she can take a shot on the centurion? Or whoever, but she's the only one that wouldn't have to discard to get there, I think. And she probably doesn't need to be standing by in FTL.
Thoughts?
BSG (Apollo)
I don't think the Quorum can do much about our shiny visitor.
BSG (Cally)
Do we have a SP to help with the killing of the interloper?
BSG (Baltar)
Not so far as I know. And we haven't had one recently for anything else.
