Um, correction. bt reminded me which cards this check needs. I was thinking it was a spring from the brig check. Sorry about that. With that, I revise and say, I can't help on this check, which leads me to think the roll is the best option.
bt, Please go with
Option 2.
Roll the bone, sir. Here's hoping we are on the plus side of life!
BSG
Ok. We will pause to see if anyone wants to play a Strategic Planning. (I have COs from two players - Baltar passes, and Apollo 13 passes of course because he's a frakkin' toaster. Roslin also passes as she's never drawn any Purple cards.)
That leaves Boomer and Adama. Please post whether you play a Strategic Planning or pass.
BSG
Ok, I have all orders: no interrupts. The gods smiled on your destruction of the Little Centurion that Couldn't; let's see how they feel about your campaign of rumour and innuendo, otherwise known as a series of posters with Apollo's mugshots asking "Have You Seen This Man? ...Ugly, Isn't He?"
Die roll: 1.
You lose 1 Morale and 1 Population, as rioting spreads through the Fleet and new posters appear over the Apollo shots proclaiming "A Cylon Isn't Just For Christmas, It's For Life."
On the bright side, with no Cylon ships haranguing the fleet, the Cylon activation has no effect, and the Jump Prep track advances by 1. This concludes Boomer's turn (well, almost; there's some Recon to take care of); Staff Sgt Adama, I'm sending you your cards. When you're ready, please post your move and action.

Those posters please Us. We are for life - we're AL for life.
So are those others in the brig. And out of the brig.
All of us. Yay!
BSG
Anyone else thinking Apollo 13's brain injury left him with aphasia?
Anyway, Boomer has completed her Recon, and opted to leave the Crisis Card on top.
BSG
How far can we get on the fuel we have?
BSG
As long as you don't lose any fuel to other mishaps, you can reach Kobol with the Fuel you have left. You need to draw one more Destination card. There's only one card in the deck that costs 3 Fuel, and if it were one of the choices, the Admiral could simply choose the other one. (Assuming they're not a Cylon.) Every destination adds at least 1 distance, so that will get you to at least 8 distance. After you reach at least 8 distance, you have one more jump to make, but you don't need to draw a destination card for that (and therefore don't need to spend Fuel). The last jump is always to Kobol.
BSG
OK, well...while it's comfortable here in the brig, and a nice change from all the responsibility, and while I don't really expect the other cylon or the two humans he's swayed to help me out, I think I'm going to try to get out of here.
That way I can draw a crisis card, and hopefully we can get some jump icons and get to Kobol.
Action:
Initiate de-brigging of me.
BSG
Calling for interrupts. Everyone except Mr "We all have steel plates in our heads", please post whether or not you play an Investigative Committee or Scientific Research.
