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

BSG

Helo is grounded, and Tigh heads to Sickbay. As if that weren't enough, the basestars open fire!

Basestar 1: 7. Hit!
Basestar 2: 4. Hit!

Tigh assigns one hit to Galactica, and the other to Pegasus. Pegasus is destroyed! Galactica is not, and suffers a broken Admiral's Quarters! Just as well Tigh moved, he might have wound up in... Um, Sickbay.

However! Buck up, little buckaroos, because it's not all bad news. The jump track advances, so that's nice. That concludes Tigh's turn. Helo's cards are going out. Helo, when you're ready, please post your move and action.

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

BSG (Helo)

You have to admit the gods had been pretty kind to us for the first half of the game.

I'm thinking I should launch myself and XO someone. Maybe get Tigh out of Sickbay?

Ideas?

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

BSG (Admiral Tigh)

Yes please!

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

BSG (Baltron)

Have you considered Research Lab?

Admiral Tigh, you have received an XO. You may move and take an action, or stay in Sickbay and take two actions. When you're ready, please post your move and action.

BSG (Admiral Tigh)

Awesome! I get to leave sickbay.

OK team human. If I move to weapons, I get one shot. Take a shot at a Raider? Pot shot at a basestar? Or move to Command and launch some RSV's to defend the Civvies?

I'm leaning towards pot shot at Basestar in sector 2.

Thoughts? Votes?

I think someone needs to kick Baltron, it seems to have developed a skip.
