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

-1 Morale isn't too bad.

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

BSG (Romo)

Yeah, but I'm fine to go to Sickbay as long as someone can get me out.

I'd be hesitant to strip the skies of RSV's with raiders in the air.

True, though we're safe for at least two Raider activations, and we're almost in the blue jump-wise. It's more of a gamble than a simple Morale loss, but we may be able to handle it. Unless we get another attack. Which could always happen.

BSG(Admiral Tomcat)

On the principle that RSVs can be relaunched, but Morale loss is forever, I choose Option 1.

(and don't most attack cards include RSV launches?)

Raider activations comprise 50% of Cylon activations, I think. So, you know, let's hope for some jump icons to go along with them.

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

BSG

That is correct. 20% basestars, 20% heavy raiders, 10% launch raiders. (Give or take, with the expansions.)

All vipers return to Galactica for sleepytimes. Romo heads to Sickbay, and Kat (being far too buzzed to sleep) returns to the Hangar Deck.

Next: basestar activation! The debris floats around in a threatening fashion (I'm currently watching Gravity, and apparently debris can be pretty damn threatening). Finally, the jump track advances. That concludes Romo's turn. Zarek's cards are going out. Admiral Zarek, when you're ready, please post your move and action.

BSG(@zarekhimself)

Hmmm. On the one hand, we need to get Romo out of Sickbay quick. On the other, the Chief is in a position to get the RSVs back into the air. Thoughts on the best use of an XO?

BSG ("Chief" Galen Tyrol)

That's a tough one. We need the full card draw. Bud those civilians are sitting ducks. I won't know until my turn, if I can xo him. Kat only draws 1 green. Low chance she will draw an xo. I think, if you can, get him out of sickbay, and hope for the best with the crisis cards.
