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.

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.
BSG
Damn, I had a whole post and it got eaten. A lot happened, exciting turn. Brief summary:
Apollo played
Authorisation of Brutal Force
and destroyed three raiders. Everyone passed on interrupts. The die roll passed anyway.
His crisis card is
Boarding Parties.
Cylon attack! It tries to add a total of five heavy raiders; Apollo keeps one off the board from Sector 1.
At turn end, Apollo has 12 cards in hand and must discard two. President Apollo, when you're ready, please post your discards.
BSG
Apollo's discards are:
Red Tape 0

BSG (Baltron)
Welp, my family has arrived, and they're calling me home.
I
reveal as a Cylon.
I
discard RT-0, CP-2, IC-4, XO-1, DE-3, DE-4, and AAC-4.
Sayonara, suckers!
BSG
Baltar reveals! That's a shock. His loyalty card states:
YOU ARE A CYLON - CAN DECREASE THE JUMP PREP TRACK BY 2
Fortunately, he's in the Brig, so it has no effect. In fact, Baltarnate's weakness means that he can't reveal outside the Brig; a Cylon Baltarnate can never use his reveal power.
There's one last piece of business. Baltron, please advise which lucky crew member gets your other loyalty card.
BSG (Baltron)
I can't decide. It's a three-way
Tigh.
BSG (Helo)
Cylon Baltarnate can never use his reveal power? I mean, I'm glad but that seems broken.
