The Hell? How many Crises with no jump icons is that in a row?
I vote to TANK. Everybody brace yourselves.....

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

The Hell? How many Crises with no jump icons is that in a row?
This is now eight crises in a row with no jump icon. You've had a pretty nightmarish jump cycle so far.
That's a total tank. Romo still throws in one card, because he's a giver like that. Cards played:
Force Their Hand 0
Dradis Contact 0
Violent Outbursts 4
Tally: 0 - 4 = -4. Fail! Not a surprise, that's the point of a tank. But each card in this check tells a story, and that story ends with more ships and Chief mugged. The DC-0 adds two raiders to Sector 1. The VO-4 sends Chief to Sickbay. The FTH-0 forces Chief's hand. Chief, you may either play a card into the check face-up, or draw a mutiny card. If you choose the latter, you'll be off to the Brig again. When you're ready, please post your choice. If you choose to play a card, please also post your choice of card.

Chief plays Repair 1. He remains unbrigged!
Meanwhile, more ships arrive. The DC-0 added two raiders in Sector 1, and the Cylon activation launches three more raiders in Sector 3. That concludes Chief's turn. Romo has opted to draw 1 Blue and 1 Treachery. Romo, when you're ready, please post your move and action.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.
In other news: D&D 5th edition has arrived. The basic rules are being offered for free. [link]
Hah, I was just about to link that, BT. Supposedly they're going to update the free rules as the PHB and DMG are released later this year. (Which they pretty much have to do to remain competitive, since Pathfinder has had their complete rules, including all their hardcovers, online since the game's inception.)
I've only skimmed so far, and I think there's some interesting ideas in there. Not sure it's enough to lure me away from Pathfinder. It definitely seems like it might be less work on the DM's part, which could be a nice break from the supreme crunch and fiddliness in Pathfinder.
