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

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.

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

BSG (Katastrophe)

I can only help a little.

Well, it's only a 9. Maybe Destiny will be kind. I play 2 cards.

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
Executive Order 1
Executive Order 2
Executive Order 2
Launch Scout 1
Bait 0
Dradis Contact 0
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.

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

BSG ("Chief" Galen Tyrol)

That sucked. Lost 2 morale AND a handful of cards. Well, now I know why I feel crummy.

We need to boost morale! Are we in the red yet on that dial?
