Well, kiddoes, we are in a world of hurt. But we can't do much until we can repair some of our locations, particularly the Armoury. Who can do repairs right now? We also need to spring Zarek from the brig, which I could help with, and ideally we should get Cally out of sickbay for her full card draw.
I also have my original plan to carry out, which might be the best thing to do, but it's hard to focus on longer term goals when we are so royally, immediately, frakked.
I just want us to be as efficient as possible. Thoughts?

It was like a shiny metal Christmas! The only thing I really asked for was "33" and it's just what I got!

We do not need to spring me from the Brig. We need two more jump icons and an early jump. Which is a bit more difficult right now. Priority is to repair shit. Nuking the basestar would be good so we don't get more damage.
BSG (Apollo)
Ok. Cally, Baltar? Are you in a position to repair at the moment?
BSG (Zarek)
And, coincidentally, we need to get you out of Sickbay! Perfect!
The question is what you should repair. It's a toss-up between FTL Control and Armoury. Er, and CIC. And, um, Engine Room.
See, in the best case scenario, Apollo and Athena both get jump icons, and then we push the button and go. If neither of them do, however, we might have to wait through two more Cylon turns to get out of here.
We need to strategize. Does anyone have any helpful Mutiny cards? My OPG can try for a good one, but I'm not sure if it's a useful gambit.
It's also good to keep in mind that Athena's OPG allows her to activate an undamaged location. Which means that whatever Cally repairs, she can activate it from space without leaving civvies unprotected.
Getting me out of the Brig would mean I draw a Crisis, which has the possibility of getting us a jump icon, but also a Cylon activation. We can revisit that possibility when it gets to my turn, but right now we should focus on repairing the right things.
BSG (Apollo)
Ok, I will abandon my original plan, which I suspect I will regret later. But hey, I've been making bad choices all game, why stop now?
I
move to Communications
and
XO Cally.

I am, as I said way back when I moved here, exactly in a position to Repair and then shoot. But I guess it is too late to remind you.
My mutiny card is not helpful.

Cally hasn't put in any orders yet, so I'll allow it. Cally is currently in Sickbay, Baltar is situated in the Armoury and has indicated that he can Repair and fire at the Centurion. Apollo, which one do you want to XO?
BSG (Apollo)
Oops! Sorry, short memory.
Yeah, we'll go with that, Baltar. I
XO Baltar.
