Our wings are not tired

BSG (Apollo)

I can help on this check.

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

BSG (Baltar)

Okay, sounds good enough, let's do this: Option 1.

Pass on interrupts.

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

sorry for the delay. Dealing with changing phone carriers and buying a new phone. Having a tech AAAAHHH day.

BSG (Hoshi)

I can do an interrupt that keeps destiny from playing. If I play that, then I can not help with the check. What does folks think?

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

BSG

I'm on the move right now, but: everyone passes on interrupts, Hoshi plays one card. Helo is next.

BSG

Everyone's play is in:

Network Computers: 11 YPB

Destiny: 2 cards
Hoshi: 1 card
Helo: 0 cards
Apollo: 3 cards
Baltar: 2 cards

Cards played:

Support the People 1
Consolidate Power 2
Guts and Initiative 1
Unorthodox Plan 3
Repair 1
Repair 2
Scientific Research 3
Executive Order 2

Tally: 13 - 2 = 11. Exact pass! The jump track advances by 1!

In other business, the raiders get a move on, and the Bistromatic is directly threatened. Finally, the jump track advances a second time. That concludes Baltar's turn. Hoshi's cards are going out. Admiral Hoshi, when you're ready, please post your move and action.

In other news, this afternoon I'm off for three nights at Phillip Island. I'm not sure about what my internet connectivity will be like, so the game may slow down over that period. (Though, being over Christmas, that may work out for some of you anyway.)
