Alrighty then. I move to Communications and launch our last remaining nuke at the basestar.
Dammit, I just bought it! It still has that new basestar smell! This is exactly what happened when I got that Daewoo back in '98.
Ok, the outcome of this attack is determined by a die roll, which means the possibility of Strategic Planning interrupts. I will need everyone (except Roslin, who's drawn no Purple cards) to post or email whether or not they wish to play one (as usual, we'll wait 12 hours). After that, we'll roll the die and see what happens. (1 in 8 chance, my basestar will survive. More than I can say for my Daewoo.)
BSG
I don't interrupt. Gods know it took me long enough to make up my mind in the first place.
BSG
I strongly encourage you to allow me to test Roslin. If I'm wrong I'll brig myself.
I will play no interrupts.
Aw, crap. The second Cylon just revealed in my online game. We've travelled 4 distance and have 3 Fuel left, both Cylons are free, one human is brigged, and the President-Admiral is a Cylon.
We are so royally screwed.
Welcome to the world of the 75% Chance of Cylon Victory.
BSG
No interrupts from me.
We've travelled 4 distance and have 3 Fuel left, both Cylons are free, one human is brigged, and the President-Admiral is a Cylon.

Yeah, that's like a Prince of Wales phone call with Camilla Parker-Bowles level of screwing, and no tiara (sparkly or otherwise) is going to make that palatable.
BSG
Boomer does *not* wish to interupt a big explosion. Burn that ubber toaster!!
BSG
Ok, no interrupts. Let's roll the die. (For those who are interested, it's yellow, orange speckles. Numbering in green.)
Result:
2. Damaged twice! Ok, now it's a 50/50 chance that one of them will be the double damage.
1st Damage:
Disabled Weapons.
2nd Damage:
Critical Hit. Total damage of 3, basestar destroyed. Bah.
Admiral Adama, your Crisis is
Cylon Virus
(Skill check 13 PB). We will pause for any IC interrupts. Blue is already positive, so there is no need for SR interrupts. A reminder: This is Admiral Adama's Crisis, so all cards with value 1 will count positive, regardless of colour.
