Please please please have an XO so Boomer can jump us before Roslinbot unleashes havoc.

I reveal.
Eeew. Aren't there laws against that. Take it to Blacks Beach where they appreciate old decrepit things being flashed around.

Something tells me the "son" is going for sloppy seconds. Eeeew.

Can we afford the population hit? I guess there will be a population hit either way.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

BSG

Yes! I have an XO. Get us out of here, Admiral!

I'm at work and not staring at the board and such. Being a visual guy, it helps with decisions. I know we are in the middle of a FRAK load of flack. Can we afford the jump, population wise? How many did we loose the last time we jumped? Maybe I'm just feeling guilt from the loss of lives the last time I gave the order. Certainly we want to not let Toaster!Mom over there activate any other raiders or anything.

(yes, sometimes I hate being a Libra)

To heck with the namesless, faceless masses, get us out of here! oops, I mean:

I'm sorry Admiral, but Galactica has to come first. We knew when we started that we couldn't save everyone.

If we jump, there's a die roll that we lose population. If we stay, it's a card draw - each civvie ship is worth a certain amount.

While the odds of losing population on a jump are good, it's 100% we'll lose population if we stay.

Y'know I never expected to enjoy this game - and the dialogue - as much as I have.

I must pick up this game.

You know Pete, I am liking this game in much the same way I like the Serenity RPG - it's rather adroitly crafted to recreate the feel of the TV show in question.

Pete, I own a copy - if we can get 3 or 4 more people, and a couple of hours, I'll bring it over some Saturday and we can toaster-smash to our little hearts' content.

I bought my copy *solely* based on the amusement I found reading *this* session. And I love eeeeet.

ETA: That being said:

Jump! Jump! Jump!

or

Stay! Stay! Stay!

Either way: you die.
