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

BSG

That's long enough for interrupts, everyone passes. Apollo fires at the basestar.

Die roll: 3. Miss. About time you guys missed something.

On to the Crisis Card, which is:

Bomb Threat
Current Player's Choice

Captain Apollo, when you're ready please post your choice.

Apollo fires at the basestar.

Psst, BT, you meant heavy raider.

Unless another Basestar just happens to have snuck in when no one was looking. I knew you were a Cylon.

The raiders get activation this turn. We are about to lose a lot of colonial ships.

Administrative note: the last skill check exhausted the Destiny Deck. I've created a new one.

It would explain why he missed, though.

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.

BSG

Let's go with the skill check.

Seriously? I think cards are pretty depleted and putting it to a die roll is better. YTMMV

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Apollo, I'll ask for you to confirm this by putting it in bold, just to make it clear this is a decision. (Meanwhile, I'll remind everyone that they can send me COs for interrupts and plays into the check.)

I have COs from Mr Zarek: Play an IC-4 interrupt. All cards in this check will be played open.

We will wait for all players with Blue cards to pass or play on a Scientific Research interrupt; then we will start the check with Chief Tyrol. Apollo will finish the check.
