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

Is the Chief getting cocky again? I'll have to monitor the situation. Meanwhile, let's see how he does:

Fire 1: 2 + 2 = 4. Two raiders destroyed!
Fire 2: 4. Two more raiders destroyed!

Four raiders destroyed in total. Nope, definitely cocky. Fortunately, we can do something about that. Zarek's crisis card is:

Lockdown
Cylon Attack

Oh, sweet, I'm glad my SP came in handy!

Oh, sweet, only a couple Raiders left!

Oh. Frak.

Zarek short-changes Sector 1. That concludes Zarek's turn. Kat's cards are going out. Kat, when you're ready, please post your move and action.

I no longer have my miracle token. But we do need a miracle.

We definitely need to jump after one more jump icon.

Nuke something? Do something else, hope for a jump icon and, um, no Cylon activation that hurts us?

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

BSG ("Chief" Galen Tyrol)

Maybe move the civilian in sector 6 out of the way. Or attack those Raiders in sector 6. Those seem to be the largest threat. Other than basestars puking more crap at us.

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

BSG (Kat a lack)

I have to move but I could also XO Zarek to talk to the civvies. Do I want to go jeer at that basestar or back up the RSV in Sector 4?

or... that't a lot of hardware. Nuke Sector 1?

another option would be for me to call in the reserves. Well, two of them anyway.

BSG(Talky Tommy)

If Kat is going to XO me It's probably best she goes to Sector 4. That way I can move one civvie out of sector 6, and one into her sector.

BSG (Kat astrophe)

And if we don't get a jump icon on my crisis, an xo back to me can call out the nukes.

Anyone else have thoughts?

I do! If you think Kat might XO you, you can send me COs for your orders.
