I have a Pass from Staff Sgt Adama too. Let us see whom the die favours.
Die Roll:
5. Boomer is now the Admiral. Congratulations, Admiral Valerii (Admiral Boomer just sounds all kinds of wrong.)
Edit: with that, Roslin's turn concludes. Dr Baltar, I'm sending you your cards. When you're ready, please post your action.

Administrative note: sending Dr Baltar his cards exhausted the Leadership Deck. I've reshuffled the discards, of which there were only seven.
BSG
yay! I'm in no hurry to get out of the brig (and I doubt I could pass the check) so what are my other options? Admiral Valeri? Whatever I can do for you- I am at your service.
BSG
Congratulations, Admiral Valerii. The fate of the human fleet is in your hands.
Sorry, son. Since you were a captain before becoming Admiral, you are now PFC Apollo. Which is better than being KFC, I suppose.
You've also lost your chance to be Pradmiral Apollo, and PreFC just sounds lame.
BSG
Thanks, Dad.
Oh, look where I'm sitting. Adm. Toaster, you may need to go back in your box - so to speak.
BSG
I play an executive order, Admiral Valeri- go again.
BSG
All this time waiting, and suddenly the President wakes up to support...Adm. Toaster. Gotcha.
BSG
What do you want Boomer to do, Doctor? Wait, don't answer that.
OK - possible actions: Move last civvie ship. Go fight boarding party/virus. Brig PFC Apollo. Run for Pradmiral. Shoot raiders.
BSG
It's so hard for me to get my head around the game when I can't see the board. I am happy with the job Roslin is doing as President. Let me think here...
