You know, with the exception of one deadly and unpredictable midget, this girl is the smallest cargo I've ever had to transport. Yet by far the most troublesome. Does that seem right to you?

Boomer has discarded: R3, R4, B1.

Cylon activation: next up - when raiders attack! There are 4 of them in position to fire.

Roll 1: 5. Viper damaged. Boomer's COs: play R1 for evasive maneouvres.
Roll 1b: 1. Miss.
Roll 2: 8. Viper destroyed. Boomer's COs: play R1 for evasive maneouvres.
Roll 2b: 4. Miss.
Roll 3: 3. Miss.
Roll 4: 1. Miss.

Finally, raiders in Sector 1 move to Sector 6, and raiders in Sector 2 move to Sector 1.

Jump Prep: Yes. Advances to 3 (Blue).

That concludes Boomer's turn. Staff Sgt Adama, I'll send you your cards when I have a chance (I'm at uni at the moment). When you're ready, please post your action.

Lastly, Boomer has used her Recon ability, and moved the next Crisis Card to the bottom of the deck.

move out and draw fire

I need an XO card that says the person can do 3 things, not just 2. Did you deal me one of those?

We need to jump before civvies get hit or our FTL gets knocked out. But given our fuel situation, I don't really want Prad. Roslin to select our destination card.

What do you guys think? Have Boomer try to brig Roslin and hope that Baltar can XO Boomer to jump us next turn? Or go straight to jump and risk our population and fuel?

Reminder: if you brig Pradmiral Roslin, she will not draw a Crisis Card. That means no Cylon activation on her turn.

I think we should brig the Prad. Both for the crisis card AND destination card reasons. I can help a little in that endeavor. Unless your "I am magic, and all 1 card values count positive" even when you are not the Admiral, AND in the brig.

That magic works ALL THE TIME...except I think just for crisis card checks, not for brigging.
