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

BSG

we are one population from red. I want to protect those civvies. I want to move the RSV to sector 4.

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

BSG

Is that an order? Probably a good idea to put orders in bold to distinguish them from discussion. So if that's what you want to do, you'd post something like:

Move: to Command
Action: Order 2 RSVs from Sector 5 to Sector 4

Boomer has made her choice:

Skill check (11 YPB)

Plot twist! Boomer invokes her once-per-game ability, Mysterious Intuition. Skill check automatically passes. Jump prep advances by 1. Jump prep is now in the blue.

Cylon activation is next: Raiders. They open fire on the RSVs. Where's my die o' destruction?

Attack 1: 3. Miss.
Attack 2: 4. Miss. Bah, where did these things learn to fly, a skeet-shooting range?
Attack 3: 3. Miss. Bugger.

Jump Prep: Yes. It advances yet another space; you are now one jump icon away from auto-jumping. That concludes Boomer's turn. Staff Sgt Adama, I'm sending you your cards. When you're ready, please post your move and action.

Administrative note: Adama's card draw exhausted the Purple deck. I've reshuffled the discards.

Jump Track: 2 (Red)
um, what happened to:
Jump Prep: Yes. It advances yet another space; you are now one jump icon away from auto-jumping

I'd hate to waste my awesome "Mysterious Intuition" with an easy pass, just to leave jump track where it was.
