I would like to activate Raiders again.
If I put it in bold, it happens, right?

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

OK. Team Humans. We have a LOT on our plate. We need to get me out of the brig. Fix vipers. And blow up a lot of toasters!
Maybe it's time to use those nukes?

I'm not sure there's a better time possible. Get ready to duck, Kat!
I will Move to Weapons Control and Launch a Nuke into Sector 6 and just for funsies I Play SP-4.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
BSG
Funsies indeed!
Die roll: 2 + 2 = 4. Basestar destroyed! You know, I think an 8 would've been even more fun. But no, Zarek whiffs it. You had one job, Zarek! Destroy them all! The trust is gone, I'm sorry. Zarek's crisis card is:
Rebuild Trust
Skill Check (9 YG)
This one's a real game-changer. Possible interrupts: IC, SR, RO, ASC, Reckless. Everyone, please pass or play. You can also send me COs for the check itself. Kat plays first, Zarek last.

Shit just got real.
I'm almost as excited for the Raider activation as I am for the check to fail.

I know y'all are shocked to learn this, but I'd love to get out of the brig!

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
BSG (Kat)
Sorry Chief, I can't help at all.

Zarek is last to play.

Zarek declares that with great Pradmirality comes great responsibility. He plays 5 cards! Is it enough? Will the Chief be set free, or will the fleet's spirit be irrevocably broken? Cards played:
Consolidate Power 1
Consolidate Power 2
Negotiation 5
Iron Will 0
All Hands on Deck 0
Executive Order 1
Declare Emergency 3
A Second Chance 5
Dradis Contact 0
A Better Machine 3
Tally: 12 - 8. Fail! Oh, but wait, we have a couple of cards there that want right of reply. The ABM-3 adds (yet another) 2 Treachery cards to Destiny, that one's easy. (I have spent a ridiculous amount of time reshuffling Destiny this game.) The DC-0 adds two raiders to Sector 1, even easier. The AHoD adds 1 point for every 0-value card, of which there are three. Tally: 7. Still fail! But finally, we have the IW-0, which neutralises the fail outcome.
Tally: 15 - 8 = 7. Fail for no effect! I can't decide whether that was awesome or a copout. Must be Season 4. Maybe someone else agrees, as this check is now in range of a DE. Is there still one out there? (And if so, are they really that keen to see Chief Chipmunk once again roaming the halls?) Everyone, please pass or play.
