Reavers ain't men. Or they forgot how to be. Now they're just nothing. They got out to the edge of the galaxy, to that place of nothing, and that's what they became.

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

ooph. ouch. What are we choosing between? We might die vs. morale goes down to 2? Morale goes down to 2 and then we have Baltron's turn.

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

There are what? 10 Galactic locations? One is already damaged. That leaves 7 more before we die.

There are six Galactica locations that can be damaged. There are two additional damage tokens, for Fuel and Food. It will therefore take between five and seven hits to destroy Galactica.

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

Don't damage Research Lab.

Research Lab cannot be damaged. Nor can Communications, or Sickbay or the Brig.

Helo escapes punishment by -- did you just open fire on Galactica?!? Well, that got their attention at least. Damage is:

Hangar Deck
1 Food

You might like to stay out there, Helo. You won't be able to launch again until the Hangar Deck is fixed.

The Cylons are greatly impressed by Helo's example and follow his lead. The basestars open fire! Once again, we have Ryan in the guest role as toaster roller.

Basestar 1: 7. Hit!
Basestar 2: 3. Miss.

My boy provides a little something for everyone, as the first basestar takes out:

1 Fuel

The Food and Fuel tokens are now removed from the game. Any future hits will do location damage.

Finally, the jump track advances. 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.
