There is one interrupt, Boomer's
Scientific Research.
Not sure what research she's been doing that helps out with prison labour, but she has wide interests. The skill check is now

Finally, the last skill check depleted the Destiny Deck; I've created a new one. This in turn depleted the Tactics (Purple) deck; I've reshuffled the discards.
BSG
Oooh, a shiny new hand! 2R, 1P, 1G, 1Y, please.
Edit: because I forgot to specify all 5s, please.
BSG
Tally = 15.
Pass: No effect.
YES! Finally pass one! (Hmmm, and Mdm President didn't play any? Coincidence?)
BSG
Any suggestions, gang? We have a host of problems, not the least of which is that I still believe we have two cylons loose on our ship. Baltar's refusal to use his cylon detection power has prolonged this internal conflict that is proving so divisive, and I continue to believe that Baltar and Roslin worked together to thwart the last attempt to put the Doctor in the brig.
We are up to our eyebrows in raiders, and nothing any viper pilot can do is going to change that -- we have to hope the cards break our way. But having an undamaged basestar sitting behind us is no good - it could launch more raiders, heavy raiders, or hit us with its main guns. If it does, and hits our armory, we are done for.
Any thoughts?
Transfer the presidency to someone else
brig Baltar
brig Roslin
attack the basestar
attack the boarding party
