Reavers ain't men. Or they forgot how to be. Now they're just nothing. They got out to the edge of the galaxy, to that place of nothing, and that's what they became.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

Edit: Nevermind. I just double-checked. Nothing to see here. Move along. Move along.

Hmm, the die roll has a 50% of screwing us.

If you go with Option 1, I can help a little.

Pete, not with the SP card.

Okay, with the SP card it's 25%. I guess that's a pretty good trade rather than burning more skill cards.

I don't have an SP though. I got a lot less cards being the first person to play.

BTW, with the end of Starbuck's turn, the Jump track will be only one away from Auto-Jump!

As mentioned, I do! Whee! Only one player needs it. Actually, I think only one can play per check. Yes! Autojump good! No loss of civvies! I suppose in the future, if we need to quick jump, I might be the best to do that, with my dice re-roll ability and all. Hopefully we won't need to do that.

Sounds good. Hopefully Sean agrees and goes with the die roll. Still, that dice does tend to roll low, ask Apollo.

Which reminds me, he's going to get shot at again. Then it might be Starbuck's turn to be Toaster target practice.

She has some "Red Shirt Vipers", which get fired upon first. If anyone can, some orders to activate those RSV might be something to think about.

Since we have a SP available, and I can help with Apollo getting fired upon, I will go with the die roll.

Electromagnetic candy! - Stark

Remember that jumping the fleet removes all Cylon ships/basestars from the map. Just whisks them away - zip!

As the voice of reason, we have 4 cylons vs 4 vipers out there. Let's not jump early and risk population this early on.
