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

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?

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

BSG

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

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

BSG ("Chief" Galen Tyrol)

I think shooting the bad guys in sector 6, or moving our folks out of sector 6.

I will move to Sector 4 and play xo-1 on Zarek

Mr Zarek, you have received an XO. You may either move and take an action, or not move and take two actions. When you're ready, please post your orders.

BSG(Even Talkier Tommy)

Well, this is simple. I will Activate Communications twice and move civilians B, C, and E into Sector 4. That means I get the manifests for all 3, right?

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

BSG (Romo)

Er, I would look at them before moving them. If there's a 0 Pop in there, you don't want to protect it.

All the civvies are now huddled protectively with Kat in Sector 4. Wait up a moment while I look up which attack card adds the most raiders in Sector 4. ...Huh. We have a few options there. But alas, this is not one of them. Kat's crisis card is:

Review Galactica's Log
Skill Check (14 YGP)

Possible interrupts: IC, SR, RO, ASC, Reckless. Everyone, please pass or play. You can also send me COs for the check itself. Chief plays first, Kat last.

BSG (Kat)

I can help a lot but wow Zarek's handwriting looks like hieroglyphics to me. Any chance we could get a committee in here to help me investigate? I'd rather risk the partial pass than throw away more cards than we have to.

I convene a committee for an open and transparent fleet. I play a IC-3!
