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

BSG (Romo)

Soooooo that happened. Suddenly that StP doesn't seem worth it.

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

BSG (Kat)

ouch. Oh Hey! I'm the Admiral!

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

BSG

Zarek makes his choice, and then discards one of his two mutiny cards. He discards Clipped Wings.

Next, we actually have raiders to activate. There are no civvies to chase, so they just open fire on Galactica:

Raider 1: 2. Miss.
Raider 2: 8. Hit!
Raider 3: 8. Hit!
Raider 4: 1. Miss.

They are on fire! Current player assigns the hits to Pegasus and/or Galactica. Cellmate Zarek, when you're ready, please post your choice.

Finally, the jump track gets moving again. So that's something. I'll send cards out to Kat once we've managed the damage.

That StP was definitely not worth it.

We didn't even need chief's SR to pass. Well, he said he wanted stuff to repair....

One each on Pegasus and Galactica, plz.

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

BSG ("Chief" Galen Tyrol)

Well, he said he wanted stuff to repair.

Um. No. I said there was nothing to repair on my turn. That is decidedly different than *wanting* something to repair. I'd much prefer not needing to repair stuff. How many levels of command-z does this game allow?

Damage is split between the two ships. It is:

Lose 1 Food
Engine Room (again)

That could've been worse, at least. Finally, the jump track advances. That concludes Zarek's turn. Kat's cards are going out. Kat, when you're ready, please post your move and action.

BSG (that's Admiral Kat to you)

Hey what do you know, I received an XO. Anybody have any bright ideas?

I could get an RSV into Sector 1.

thoughts?
