Everyone passes on interrupts. Baltar takes aim, and today I have a guest die roller. Ryan shakes the die:
Die roll: 5. Hit!
My son: totally not a Cylon. And the damage is:
Structural Damage!
Any further attacks on the basestar are at +2 to hit. Speaking of which, Baltar has another action. Mr Nice Gaius, when you're ready, please post your orders.

Ryan's eating, so I'll do this roll:
Die roll: 3 + 2 = 5. Basestar destroyed!
Just as well it had structural damage.
Since I'm off shortly, here's a palate cleanser of a crisis card. It is:
Water Shortage (A)
President's Choice
President Apollo, when you're ready, please post your choice.
BSG (Helo)
Well done, Ryan.
Ouch another hit to food. Is it worth it to save five cards?
BSG (Hoshi)
This early in the game, cards are precious. Without them, we fail checks. I am partial to option 1. But not strongly. Both suck.
BSG (Helo)
Food is renewable but without Zarek on the crew it's not a certainty.
BSG (Apollo)
We
Lose the food.
I think that is option one. My flight is about to take off so I can't check.

Quick update, my internet connectivity is not so reliable here. I will update things when I get home tomorrow.
Holy crap does Dragon Age: Inquisition have a lot of content. Granted, there's a ton of glorified fetch quests, but I'm approaching hour 90 and still have 3 zones I've barely done anything in, one I've mostly finished off, and a bunch I've done about half the stuff in. And I still have at least one main quest to unlock and complete (Not sure how close to the end I am as I'm trying to avoid spoilers.) and two companion quests to do. I've also only taken down one of the ten (optional) dragons.
