Gunn: The final score can't be rigged. I don't care how many players you grease, that last shot always comes up a question mark. But here's the thing. You never know when you're taking it. It could be when you're duking it out with the Legion of Doom, or just crossing the street deciding where to have brunch. So you just treat it like it was up to you—the world in balance—'cause you never know when it is.

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

BSG (Katadmiral)

Anyone else want to weigh in on this? I feel like it would be better to conserve fuel. (sorry about that, Chief)

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

BSG ("Chief" Galen Tyrol)

sorry about that, Chief

No hard feelings. The only reason I would disagree, is to get more RSV's fixed. But, completely understand.

It wouldn't be called a crisis card if they were easy decisions.

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

BSG (Romo)

I agree that Fuel is at a premium. I can raise Morale with some speeches anyway.

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

There will be no rescue. The Admiral authorises a severe beating for the treacherous Chief! Poor Chief, he has ouchies on his ouchies. He goes to Sickbay and Morale falls by 1.

Next, the raiders activate. Chief has decreed that Sector 6 shall activate first:

Raider 1: 3. Miss.
Raider 2: 1. Miss.
Raider 3: 6. Viper damaged!
Kat plays an Evasive Manoeuvre 2.
Raider 3a: 5. Viper damaged! No more EMs are forthcoming. However, that viper only hit by 1. If anyone has a Calcs they would like to play on that roll, the civvie and possibly the viper can be saved. Anyone who would like to play one, let me know.

Chief plays a Calculations 3. Raider 3 misses! One more:

Raider 4: 3. Miss.

On to Sector 3. Let's see if they have better luck.

Raider 1: 1. Miss.
Raider 2: 6. Viper damaged!
The last raider moves to Sector 4. Kat's there. Hi Kat!

Finally, the jump track advances. As it's the Mutineer's turn, Chief draws another mutiny card. He played one this turn, so he has room for one without being brigged. Choices are going out to Zarek. Citizen Zarek, when you're ready, let me know which one to give to Chief.

Last piece of business, Chief ends his turn five cards over the hand limit. He discards:

All Hands on Deck 0
Iron Will 0
All Hands on Deck 0
Executive Order 1
Restore Order 3

That concludes Chief's turn. Romo's cards are going out. Romo, when you're ready, please post your move and action.

BSG (Romo)

Can you resend the cards? I don't see them.

Mulling over what to do. I can get involved in the space battle, or I can raise a resource.
