You always think harder is better. Maybe next time I patrol, I should carry bricks and use a stake made out of butter.

Hello men & women of the fleet, this is Acting Admiral Valerii. In order to clear ourselves from a hostile area, we fired up the FTL, and got a jump a little sooner than we expected. We thought we got everyone. I'm sad to say, one of the FTL units did not work properly, and it looks like the Olympic Carrier did not make the jump. At this time, we do not know if it was a malfunction, or sabotage. At this time, we do not know the fate of the souls on board, but fear the worst. Memorial service will be held at 1800. At this time, we have traveled 2 light years. It did burn 2 fuels and we are orbiting a barren planet. The bad news is, there is nothing to harvest from the planet. The good news is, at this time, no toasters in sight. Hear me now. We are 2 steps closer to home. 2 steps closer to Earth. 2 steps closer to safety. We must stay together, not bicker amongst ourselves, and defend from any Cylons that come in range. May the gods watch out for us, and keep the area clear. That is all."

Administrative note: Roslin's card draw exhausted both the Yellow and the Green decks. I've reshuffled the discards. There were a total of 2 Green discards; the Green deck currently consists of exactly two cards.

If we should run out of Green cards, Cylons will no longer be able to apply for permanent residency anyone who is slated to draw Green will miss out, and the Destiny Deck will likewise be formed without Green cards if it needs replenishing.

move out and draw fire

Me too.

OK, 2...so we have to survive until we can jump one more time.

Actually, 2 more times - once to get to distance 8, then one more jump to win.

But yes - 2 more jumps, and it's Kobolpalooza.

If only crisis cards get us closer to jumping I think we need to get some more people out of jail. Unofrtunately I can only help a little with brig checks.

Two more times. You need to reach 8 distance and make one more jump to Kobol.
