Die roll: 8 + 2 = 10. The nuke destroys not only the basestar, but the three raiders accompanying it.
That is great news!!!! Great shooting sir!

Okay, there's no value in using the other nuke, that basestar will be destroyed if Galactica hits it one more time.

I'll play a P2 - Launch Scout. Hopefully I can ensure our next Crisis won't be more Cylons turning up.

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

BSG

whoo! (edit, whoo: destroying base star. I'm not whooing the scout until it comes back safely.)

What sort of world is it where I'm forced to commend the Pradmiral for both his wisdom in using the Bomb at this particular juncture, as well as sending out a scout?

Can I please be moved to Sickbay, since I'm obviously in need of medical care?

Obviously, you are a greater asset to the Colonies than the Pradmiral thought and restitution will be made when we don't have Cylons breathing down our necks.

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

BSG

Any interrupts on the Scout roll?

I play no interrupts. Mr. Zarek is napping after a busy day saving everyone's lives (by proxy).

I have passes from everyone now. Let's see how the Scouting mission goes.

Die roll: 6. Success!

Pradmiral, do you wish to scout the Crisis deck or the Destination deck?

Crisis deck. Plenty of time to check the destination deck.
