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

BSG (Admiral Tigh)

Pass on interrupts, I can help a lot on this check.
Um. Where was the help? For the toasters? I guess we know why he picked to Kill the old Admiral, and drop morale, earlier in the game.

Baltar you played two cards and yet I only see one positive card in the check.
Yes, Mr. President. That positive card was the one I played. I under played, since a deceiver said he could help a lot.

MOVE: Admiral's Quarters.

ACTION: Activate Admiral's Quarters on Baltar!

Oh, and I use my ability to reduce the difficulty of brigging this skin job.

I know we have a lot of flak in the air. We can't risk another spike in crisis checks. And with my turn, I can use my ability to reduce the difficulty in brigging him.

Oh. And. FRAK!

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

BSG

Briggity briggity. With Tigh's Cylon Hatred, this is a 4 GP check. 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.

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

BSG (Baltar)

I didn't pick that! That was Apollo!

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

BSG (Helo)

Yeah I don't feel the need to defend my choice.

I support the embriggening.

pass on interrupts.

I can help a lot.

Hmm. I suspect a Mutiny goal of low morale at the end of the game.

Mutiny cards don't give you goals. They give you mutiny.

BSG

Oh, wait, just before we get onto that, this check was Reckless. Time to check the Treachery deck! It has:

Bait 0

Recklessness is a go! Second card:

Bait 0

Well, that's all a bit useless. All the civvies are already on the board, so we can't add more. The humans get away with it after all!
