I'm not a gambling ma—oh, who am I kidding, of course I'm a gambling man.
I
play Preventative Policy-4
and hope that my Crisis involves
Morale
so we can tank it. (I would choose Food but we've had two Food Crises recently and Morale comes up more often.)
And then I
XO-1 Helo.
Get up, lazybones!
BSG (Helo)
so it's Baltar's turn, it's my turn in two turns and there's no metal in the sky. I'm going to gamble that we don't get an attack card and move to the
Research Lab
but for my action I will play
LS-1
to scout the crisis deck.
BSG (Baltar)
Oh, brilliant! Better chance of getting a Morale Crisis now.
BSG
Crises beckon, as a lonely pilot journeys beyond Galactica's protection. What does it discover?
Die roll: 8. Pass!
Two crisis cards are on their way to Helo. Helo, when you're ready, please let me know how to arrange them.
BSG (I don't know why you say goodbye when I say Helo)
tough decision made.
BSG
The even-handed Helo has buried one crises and kept the other. And look, you all get to see it! It is:
Keep Tabs on Visitor
Current Player's Choice
Baltar, when you're ready, please post your choice.
BSG (Helo)
I can help but to pass the check will probably take more than four cards from all of us. Baltar do you think you can take one for team human? Don't listen to the leggy blonde in the red dress. She isn't real.
BSG (Baltar)
Well I would then have no cards for the next three turns, so we may be at a disadvantage for those checks. I can help on the check too.
If someone has an SP, we could chance a tank maybe?
What does everyone else think?
BSG (Helo)
Yes an SP would be perfect right now. And when I say I can help, I mean I can help a little.
