You know, it's funny. We went to war never looking to come back, but it's the real world I couldn't survive.

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

BSG (Admiral Tigh)

I'm afraid, I have no plans.

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

BSG (Helo)

I am planless as well. Not accusing anyone, just asking- is it possible we could have two cylons?

oops I just remembered I have two mutiny cards so I should probably play one or risk being brigged. That means no XO if I'm also going to get into the sky right now.

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

BSG

Orders from Helo:

No Move
Launch into Sector 5 in an assault raptor
Play mutiny card: The Strong Survive

The jump track demands sacrifice! It advances by 1, after Helo offfers a civvie to its gaping maw! Now that's leadership. Did he get the Morale ship? The destroyed civvie contained:

1 Population

That could've been worse. Population falls to 8! Hey, Tigh, are you sure you're still Admiral? Because Helo seems to be intent on ruling with an iron fist. His crisis card is:

Prison Labour
Skill Check (10 YGP)

Possible interrupts: IC, SR, RO, ASC, Reckless. Everyone, please pass or play. You can also send me COs for the check itself. Apollo plays first, Helo last.

BSG

That's everyone. Cards played:

Iron Will 0
Iron Will 0
Declare Emergency 4
Launch Scout 2
Scout for Fuel 6
Scientific Research 3
Dradis Contact 0
Dradis Contact 0

Tally: 12 - 3 = 9. Fail! However, the IW-0s mean that failing this check gives No Effect. Losses avoided!

The DC-0s also take effect, and we add two more raiders into Sector 1. Then, all the raiders activate, and move to Sector 2. That concludes Helo's turn. Apollo has opted to draw 2 Green for his variable draw. Apollo, when you're ready, please post your move and action.

Our wings are not tired

BSG (Apollo)

Sorry again everything. I'm teching far too many shows right now and have barely been finding time to sleep a few hours a night.

I work the quorum.
