Wash: Little River just gets more colorful by the moment. What'll she do next? Zoe: Either blow us all up or rub soup in our hair. It's a toss-up. Wash: I hope she does the soup thing. It's always a hoot, and we don't all die from it.

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

Anyone play the Game of Thrones board game?

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

This is the first I've heard of it.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I don't know anything about it. What's it like?

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

It's ranked 30th on boardgamegeek at the moment, which is very high: [link] (Battlestar Galactica ranks 24th. Speaking of which:)

BSG

I now have everyone's discards. They are:

Apollo: Restore Order 3, Install Upgrades 0
Athena: Protect the Fleet 0, Establish Network 0
Zarek: Support the People 1, Launch Scout 1
Cally: Red Tape 0, Launch Scout 1
Baltar: Consolidate Power 2

Next, everyone (including the Cylons) draws two Treachery cards, except Athena, who draws three. Cards are going out now.

After that, the jump track will advance the final step and the fleet will jump! Destinations will go out to Cally once the cards have been dealt. Admiral Cally, when you're ready, please post your choice.

Sorry, forgot that one thing: there is also a heavy raider activation, so William the Bastard gets his marching orders.

The decision is made! It is:

Asteroid Field
Distance 3

Welcome to the final jump cycle! But first, those asteroids are dangerous. One civvie's jump coordinates are already occupied! It contained:

0 Population

Decoy ship! Asteroids are so easily fooled.

That almost takes us to the end of Baltar's turn. There are two more orders from Athena. First, she opts to remain in space when the fleet jumps. She also finishes Baltar's turn with 12 cards and must discard two. She tosses:

Personal Vices 3
Violent Outbursts 4

That concludes Baltar's turn. We turn now to the Dark Side. Romo has opted to draw 1 Red and 1 Treachery. When you're ready, please post your move and action.
