Thanks, Kalshane. I'm on an XBox One though. I'm hopping there have been some patches since I last played that will take care of some of these issues.

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.

Okay. There was a patch a couple weeks ago, but I don't know how it worked out for the XBone side as I don't frequent those forums. I know on the PC-side it solved a lot of people's problems, but also caused problems for people who were working fine before.

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

I played DA:I for a few hours last night and had no issues whatsoever, so hopefully it's been resolved!

Good to hear, Rayne. Drives me nuts that Bioware is part of the EA behemoth now (not that their pre-EA games didn't have bugs, just didn't seem to be this bad. And Origin is a terrible service all around.)

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

Ok, sorry for the delay. I needed to check something with one of the players. Anyway, the fleet travels 2 Distance for 2 Fuel. That concludes Hoshi's turn. Helo's cards are going out. Helo, when you're ready, please post your move and action.

I have COs from Helo:

Launch into Sector 6 in an assault raptor
Play Launch Scout 1 on the crisis deck

Once again I have Ryan to roll the die for me. He gets:

Die roll: 8. Pass!

The top two cards of the crisis deck are going out. Helo, when you're ready, let me know how to distribute them.

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

BSG (Baltar)

Do the civvies stay in space when we jump? I thought that was only when we did the thing where we had to escort them back.

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

BSG (Admiral Hoshi)

Helo, didn't you fly an assualt raptor? Can't you stay in space with a jump? It saves a step when Cylons arrive.

Likewise, BT, we show 0 Assault Raptors, with Helo back, shouldn't that be 1?
