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

Sorry for the delay. Crazy work time.

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

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

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.

So Zarek calls himself the Hand of God and Romo's curse of choice is "Godsdammit". Did you guys switch teams while I wasn't looking?

Ooh, I just realized. Chief, you probably want to head to the Hangar Deck before you XO Kat. Our Reserves are empty and with Comms down, the RSVs are our only backup.

BSG

I have partial orders from the Chief:

Move to the Hangar Deck
Play Executive Order 2 on Kat

Still missing: the discard to move back to Galactica. Chief, when you're ready, pleasse post your discard.

Kat has received an XO, and has left partial COs:

Play mutiny card: Make a Deal

This allows her to free herself from the Brig! She joins Chief on the Hangar Deck. However, it comes at a cost, and the cost is that someone draws a new mutiny card. Kat chooses herself. Options are going out to Zarek. Pradmiral Zarek, when you're ready, let me know which card to give to Kat.

That takes care of Kat's first action. She has a second action left over. Kat, when you're ready, please post your orders.
