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

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

Quite right; I've fixed it up. You advanced the Jump Prep 2 spaces in your turn.

For those who keep track of these things, Boomer has exercised her Recon ability, and moved the next Crisis to the bottom of the deck.

I'm at work and can't see the board; do I understand correctly that we can jump without risking population loss?

Also,

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.

Boomer, I'm proud to call you Admiral.

I believe the jump space we're on is a risk of -1 population; only auto-jump is risk-free. However, I'm also at work, sans board, so I can't be *certain*.

We are currently at population -1 in the jump window. I buried a crisis card that went jump track backwards, so hopefully the next crisis card will move the jump token to auto-jump, and get us to Earth!

Boomer, I'm proud to call you Admiral.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
