I
activate Caprica
and oh no, you guys, I know you're trying to get to Earth and all but I'm getting a strong vision of the
Earth in Ruins.
Have fun with the check, Kat and Chief.
BSG
Good news! Romo activates Caprica, and he has a real estate deal for you! He's found a new planet for humanity. It's a bit of a fixer-upper, but has tremendous sentimental value. Romo's crisis card is:
Earth in Ruins
Current Player's Choice
Romo feels good about humanity's chances.
He chooses the skill check.
Possible interrupts: IC, SR, RO, ASC, Reckless. Everyone, please pass or play. You can also send me COs for the check itself. Zarek plays first, Romo last.
BSG (Katastrophe)
I can only help a little.
BSG
Everyone passes on interrupts. The check begins:
Earth in Ruins:
9 YGP
Destiny:
2 cards
Zarek:
0 cards
Kat:
Chief:
Romo:
(COs received)
Kat is next.
BSG (Kat)
Well, it's only a 9. Maybe Destiny will be kind. I play 2 cards.
BSG
I have everyone's play:
Earth in Ruins:
9 YGP
Destiny:
2 cards
Zarek:
0 cards
Kat:
2 cards
Chief:
3 cards
Romo:
1 card
Cards played:
Negotiation 5

A Better Machine 3
Tally: 11 - 3 = 8. Fail!
Everything was looking good in Romo's real estate deal, but then he revealed the mortgage would be through Bank of America! Alas, everyone passes on DEs. Morale falls by 2!
The jump track advances at least. That concludes Romo's subprime turn. Zarek's cards are going out. Pradmiral Zarek, when you're ready, please post your move and action.
BSG
Sorry, resolving the Treachery: there are now 2 raiders in Sector 1, 1 civvie in Sector 4 and 2 extra Treachery cards in Destiny.
