Let's put you out of your misery. So to speak. Apollo has decided...
Hoshi must die!
The Admiral is executed! He reveals his loyalty, which states:
YOU ARE NOT A CYLON
YOU ARE NOT A CYLON
One might conclude that he was human. Morale falls by 1! He discards his entire hand:
All Hands on Deck 0
Executive Order 1
Declare Emergency 3
At Any Cost 5
Quick Thinking 0
Establish Network 0
Scientific Research 4
He also loses his mutiny card, which was:
Armed Resistance
Now, omnis needs a replacement. He chooses:
Admiral Saul Tigh!
Tigh receives a new loyalty card, going out now.
There's no basestar left to activate, so finally, the jump track advances. That concludes Baltar's turn of death. New Admiral Tigh's new cards are going out. Admiral Tigh, when you're ready, please post your move and action.

BSG (Baltar)
Well, that Hoshi sure wasn't a Cylon. But...Tigh still might be? Is that right? It's a small possibility but a real one?
At least he didn't have the best hand ever, but ouch. Plus a Morale drop. At least I blew up the basestar???
BSG (Admiral Hoshi... er. Tigh)
Wait, you kill me, ding Morale, and then try and point the finger at me for beng a Cylon? No discussion of what would be best for team human. Just kill the admiral, then accuse the new Admiral?
Lucky for you, I'm not the suspicious type.
So. We are finally in the blue for the jump track. Should I push the button? Or command some RSV's to go after the raiders in sector 6?
BSG (Baltar)
Wait, you kill me, ding Morale, and then try and point the finger at me for beng a Cylon?
I didn't kill you! That was all President Apollo, my one-eyed friend.
So. We are finally in the blue for the jump track. Should I push the button?
I was certainly considering that option, although it's a risk without a plan, which no one had before. The skies aren't too bad now, without the basestar, so we could maybe tough it out.
BSG (Helo)
Maybe one of us could come up with a plan in a couple turns?
BSG
Orders from Tigh:
activate Command, fire at the raiders twice.
Well then.
Fire 1: 4. Hit!
Fire 2: 3. Hit!
Well, that was easy. Some good hits there. A little added boom. I wonder where he got it from? Meanwhile, Tigh's crisis card is:
Missing G4 Explosives
Skill Check (7 GP)
Feels almost refreshingly straightforward after some of the recent turns. Possible interrupts: IC, SR, RO, ASC, Reckless. Everyone, please pass or play. You can also send me COs for the check itself. Helo plays first, Tigh last.
BSG (Helo)
Pass
on interrupts. I can help a lot on the check.
BSG
Everyone passes on interrupts. The check begins:
Missing G4 Explosives:
7 GP
Destiny:
2 cards
Helo:
Apollo:
Baltar:
Tigh:
Everyone not called Helo, you can send me COs.
