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.

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

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

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?

Yes an SP would be perfect right now. And when I say I can help, I mean I can help a little.

I'm afraid I can not help with the planning thing. If we go the check route, I can help a little. If we can get an SP, I'd vote the tank route, but only if we have an SP.

All right then, I'll take the hit. Option 2.
Now pass those checks, folks.

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

One hit for Baltar, coming up. He discards four random cards. He holds... four cards. This is less random than I would like. No matter! The discards are:
Consolidate Power 2
Executive Order 2
At Any Cost 3
Repair 2
Finally, the jump track advances. 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 other news. We got Zombie Dice for Xmas. It's quite the ingenious little game. The way the dice are designed it is not as random as you might think. I would highly recommend it for anyone who's looking for a quick-playing pocket game.

Anyone have an SP? With the skies quiet, I could do something useful, but it requires a roll of the bone(s). I'd love to make it a sure thing.
