Sorry, one more piece of business. Chief's weakness means that he's one card over his hand limit. Chief, when you're ready, please post your choice of discard.

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

BSG (Romo)

Hold up, I just realized I can use my OPG to get Zarek out of the brig. It's early yet, and we're under attack. Wonder if I should hop over to Pegasus and fire on the basestar or try the Quorum.

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

BSG (Kat)

Is it time for the nuclear option?

That does look like a tempting target in Sector 1. It might be good to try it before the Raiders move away from the basestar. Of course(he said with no ulterior motive) the more people we have available to man stations the better.

Ooh, that is true, although I can't nuke anything nor XO anyone to nuke anything.

BSG (Kat)

Maybe sprining Zarek is our best option. If could xo me I could use my OPG to destroy that Heavy. I land in sickbay but then I get out on my turn... without my card draw. OK maybe not.

"...and then Legolas and the Hulk destroy the entire Greek army." - Penny Arcade

BSG(Tom after Tom)

Well, there'll be no nuking this turn then. You could position yourself on Pegasus, then get me out so I can go somewhere useful. Then we can be XO'd as appropriate.

I am hesitant to break out the OPGs this early in the game, but it seems like a good time since we could use all hands on deck. Where do you want to go on Galactica, Zarek? I presume I can't move you to Pegasus.
