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

BSG (Kat)

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

BSG ("Chief" Galen Tyrol)

Zarek gets... Critical Hit! The basestar is destroyed!

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?

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

It is not.

BSG(The Tom-Tom Beat of Eternity)

Hearing no objections after 24 hours, I choose Option 2. Better a destroyed Hangar then a defenestrated Chief.

BSG

There shall be no damaged Hangar, as the undefenestrated Chief opts to damage Pegasus twice. The damage is:

Engine Room
Main Batteries

The basestar activation is not going to add to that total, as the basestar has been destroyed. But the jump track still advances. That concludes Chief's turn. Romo's cards are going out. President Romo, 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 (Romo)

I will move to the Quorum Chamber and activate the Quorum.

BSG

Quorum card sent. Romo now opts to play one of the cards. He plays:

Resources for Galactica

Bit of a misnomer, it should be resources for Pegasus. Main Batteries is now repaired! They worked day and night on that one. Romo's crisis card is:

Sleep Deprivation
Admiral's Choice

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