Faith: A kid. Angel's got a kid. Wesley: Connor. Faith: A teenage kid born last year. Wesley: I told you, he grew up in a hell dimension. Faith: Right. And what, Cordelia spent her last summer as… Wesley: A divine being. Faith: Uh-huh. Can I just ask--What the hell are you people doing?

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

BSG (Zarek)

Nice shooting! I planned a little too hard, curses.

Making yourself Pradmiral already, petifogger?

For my second trick, I will fire at the basestar again!

Oh right I'm not Zarek anymore.

There must be some way out of here.

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

BSG (Kat)

Pass again.

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

BSG

Everyone passes on interrupts.

Die roll: 6. Hit! Let's see what damage you can do this time. Zarek gets... Critical Hit! The basestar is destroyed!

The Society for Prevention of Cruelty to Cylons is incensed, and are determined to bring suit. Not against Zarek, of course, not while he's commanding the big guns. But there's always the Chief, he issued the XO after all. Chief's crisis card is:

A Verdict of Guilty
Admiral's Choice

Admiral Zarek, when you're ready, please post your choice.

Well done!

kazow! that is an ugly crisis. I'd say we have to go for the Galactica damage but if Chief (our only repair-y crewmate) is a cylon we will be very sorry.

BSG(Tom, Your Admiral)

Ugh. The Admirable T is inclined to agree with his one remaining pilot, especially this early when cards are still low. Any naysayers to letting the battlestars take the hit?

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

Now that's what I would call an XO well used! Nice shooting boss. Especially with this crisis card!

As to that. I, personally, am no fan of option 1. I know, quite the shocker, right?

Mr. GM, is Demitrius not an option for absorbing damage?
