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

BSG (Kat)

I think Zarek might know what I have in mind. I vote to TANK

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

BSG

Kat agrees to cooperate in her own brigging! Chief and Zarek, do you vote yea or nay?

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

BSG (Romo)

I don't know what you all are planning but I don't like it.

That's a pity, because I'm finding it quite fascinating.

BSG(President Admiration)

Aha. I believe I do know what our pilot is up to. Chief, I advise you to follow my lead and TANK, then XO her on your turn.

Oh, something I'd neglected to mention: Zarek's card draw exhausted the Politics deck. I've reshuffled the discards.

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

Sorry for the delay. Crazy work time.

BSG ("Chief" Galen Tyrol)

Um, sure..??.. You want to go to the Brig? Okay. Tank it.

The check is tanked! Romo still plays 1 card, for the following cards:

Evasive Manoeuvre 1
Dradis Contact 0
Personal Vices 3

Tally: 0 - 4 = -4. Fail! Kat goes to the Brig!

...Where she was headed anyway, thanks to the Treachery in the check. We add 2 raiders to Sector 1; then the PV-3 sees each human player draw a Treachery card... and Kat also gets a second mutiny card! The Brig likes to cover all of its bases.

Treachery is going out now, as well as a mutiny card choice to Zarek. Pradmiral Zarek, when you're ready, please let me know which card to give to Kat.

Aw, man, this would have been way funnier if they had passed the check.

We add 2 raiders to Sector 1

And then a Raider activation, right?? Ooh yeah, good times.

Ah! I smell hope. Foolish Cylon. There is indeed a raider activation, which means that the raiders in Sector 1 take out the mighty SS Ankylosaurus! Its loss costs the fleet:

0 Population

So that happened. The other raider meanders off to Sector 6 in search of juicier prey. That almost concludes Kat's turn, except that she's exceeded the prisoner allowance, and must discard 1 skill card and 1 mutiny card. Zarek also has a discard to perform, and it is:

Personal Vices 3

Kat, when you're ready, please post your discards.

Meanwhile, Chief's cards are going out. Chief, when you're ready, please post your move and action.
