I get confused. I remember everything. I remember too much, and... some of it's made up, and... some of it can't be quantified, and... there's secrets.

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

I have votes to TANK from Athena and Baltar as well. The check is tanked! Destiny reveals:

Evasive Manoeuvre 1
Evasive Manoeuvre 1

Tally = -2. Fail! We get two new tourists checking out Galactica's "military apocalypse chic". In addition, a battlestar gets damaged. Hot Dog has chosen Galactica; they hit Weapons Control. At least it wasn't the Armoury.

That concludes Hot Dog's turn. Apollo has opted to draw 2 Green for his variable draw. Apollo, when you're ready, please post your move and action.

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

BSG (Zarek)

Hey, Apollo, if you move to the Armoury and XO either Cally or Baltar, you can activate the Armoury afterward. That's three shots in one turn.

We could really use some Brutal Force right now. I wonder if there are Mutiny cards that could help. I could try my OPG. Athena, you can use your OPG to activate the Armoury from space.

We have 5 turns to annihilate these unwanted guests before the Cylons get to have fun again. Let's do this.

There is in fact one mutiny card, Send a Message, that allows a shot at a Centurion at +2 on the die roll.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

BSG (Apollo)

Alas, I did not draw an XO. I could still join the party in the Armoury and make an attempt myself.

I have a question in to the GM regarding a diplomatic option.

Okeydoke, Brutal Force it is!

I do not move and activate the Quorum Chamber to draw 1 card and then to play Authorisation of Brutal Force on hapless Harald there.

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

It's not like we can surrender this ship and move to Pegasus.
