Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

Team Humans, thoughts?

  • Launch some RSV's to help protect those civilians?

  • Take some pot shots at one of the basestars?

  • XO Helo or Apollo?

I'm leaning towards shooting at Sector 2. Thoughts?

Take some pot? Oh wait, I think you mean something else.

The things we need to do are deal with the encroaching raiders, push the jump track, and raise morale.

If I'm XO'ed then I can pump the quorum and try to get something to help raise morale.

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

BSG

Card sent. Apollo may now either draw another Quorum card, or play one from his hand. Apollo, when you're ready, please post your orders.
