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.
Wesley: Feng Shui. Gunn: Right. What's that mean again? Wesley: That people will believe anything. Actually, in this place, Feng Shui will probably have enormous significance. I'll align my furniture the wrong way and suddenly catch fire or turn into a pudding.

Well, there's no chance of jumping early this turn anyway as someone has to be in the FTL Control Room.
Worst case scenario this turn is Raider 1 takes out Apollo letting Raiders 2 & 3 enter Sector 4. If that happens I hope to get an XO on Starbuck but I'm only getting one card on my draw due to being in Sickbay so it's going to be close.
If the Raiders get another activation, we stand a good chance of moving again on the Jump track.

Edit: oh, pshaw. I mis-read my own copy of the board.
Never mind. Ignore all my advice, that was offered OOCly anyway.

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

If it's not too late to consider other options, I can help a lot on the skill check.

In MyBrute news - there's a tendency to list the pets - dog, wolf, bear - as good, better, best. I actually think that given the right circumstances the wolf is far better than the bear. Check this out from today's matches - [link]

Laga, Sean said he's going with the die roll. Don't worry, plenty more skill checks to make before Kobol!

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

Die roll it is. Helo plays a Strategic Planning-3.
Die roll: 5 + 2 = 7. No effect.
Cylon Activation: raiders. They fire on Apollo.
Raider 1: 2. Miss.
Raider 2: 8. Viper destroyed! I have COs from Apollo: Play EM-1. The reroll is at -2.
Raider 2a: 5 - 2 = 3. Miss.
Raider 3: 3. Miss. Bah.
Jump Prep: Yes. You are now one icon away from auto-jumping.
That concludes Starbuck's turn. Pradmiral Tigh, you are starting your turn in Sickbay, which means you may draw only one skill card. Please advise whether you wish to draw Green or Purple; then, when you're ready, please post your move and action.

Okay, I took Green.
Move: I spend a Purple-2 to travel to Colonial One (Administration) where I will have a little talk with Mr. Zarek about maintaining a unified front as we continue our travels and escape the clutches of this Cylon attack.
Action: I spend a Green-1 to XO Apollo to frak those Raiders. Better safe than sorry.

BSG
Apollo, you have received an XO. You may either move and take an action, or not move and take two actions. (Firing at a raider constitutes one action.) When you're ready, please post your orders.
