Galactica Out.

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

BSG

The ships are tempted away from Sector 4 by the stereophonic sounds of Louis "The Voice of Caprica" Hoshi. Hoshi's special ability allows him to spend a skill card to activate Communications again. Admiral Hoshi, will you do so?

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

Admiral Hoshi, will you do so?

No thanks. I think we are good for now. Not enough cards just yet.

In that case, I can offer you instead this lovely crisis. Here, have a:

Prisoner Revolt
 Skill Check (11 YGP)

Possible interrupts: IC, SR, RO, ASC, Reckless. Everyone, please pass or play. You can also send me COs for the check itself. Helo plays first, Hoshi last.

BSG

I have everyone's play:

Prisoner Revolt: 11 (6) YGP

Destiny: 2 cards
Helo: 1 card
Apollo: 1 card
Baltar: 1 card
Hoshi: 2 cards

Will it be enough? Cards played:

Preventative Policy 3
Popular Influence 4
State of Emergency 6
Launch Scout 2
A Second Chance 5
Install Upgrades 0
Repair 1

Tally: 20 - 1 = 19. Pass! The game begins memorably with a big ol' no effect. But the Install Upgrades 0 allows Hoshi to draw two Blue cards, which are going out now.

The turn ends with the basestar launching a heavy raider for a bit of variety, and the jump track advancing. That concludes Hoshi's turn. Helo's cards are going out. Helo, when you're ready, please post your move and action.
