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

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.

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.

Well, that doesn't sound too bad. 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.

Hey folks, FYI. The next few days I'm going to be a bit preoccupied with wedding stuff. My online time will be sporadic through Tuesday.

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

Frak I feel like we have to pass this but I can only help a little.
