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

Administrative note: Boomer's card draw has exhausted the Engineering deck. I've reshuffled the discards.

Dude! Holy Frak! I wasn't expecting that. Awesome!

MOVEMENT Stay in Weapons. ACTION Fire on that Crystal Meth MoFo in Sector 1 INTERRUPT I play my purple jobber that gives a boost to the die roll to hopefully blow that puppy out of our area.

One little escape from certain death and you'd think he's started mainlining the red cordial. (For those who are interested, that was a Purple jobber-4 that Boomer played.) Ok, Galactica fires on the basestar:

Roll: 6 + 2 = 8. Hit! Let's check out the damage:

Disabled Weapons. This basestar is no longer able to fire at Galactica. It can still launch raiders and heavy raiders.

I'm afraid if we fail we lost! I'm leaning towards a roll. Humans, what do you think?

BSG
