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

I have the odd CO I can apply here. I'm going to call it: pass on interrupts. Let's see if Chief Tyrol is as good against a small target as he is against basestars:
Die roll: 3. It's a squeaker, but he just manages to knock out its propulsion. It's left spinning helplessly in space.
...Or is it? Chief Tyrol's Crisis Card is:
Crippled Raider

Chief, when you're ready please post your choice.

I don't think we can afford to lose any more population but if we fail the die roll that could be disastrous as well. I can help a lot with the skill check. Does anyone else have input?

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir

I think the skill check is the better option, although I have the wrong cards for this one, so will not be tossing in any.
Pradmiral, what are your thoughts?

The skill check would be best. I cannot help at all, however - technical matters are beyond my normal range of expertise.

Stunthusband, you could help with that Investigative Committee - 4 that was returned to you.
As for the choices, Option 1's success is great as it gets us out of here NOW, but it's fail is a very very bad risk.
The die roll on the other hand probably doesn't make a lot of difference. If it fails the only issue is one more civvie on the board but I still think we'll jump before they're endangered.
It's big gain/big loss on 1 or minimal change on 2.

I know what my cards do; that card doesn't help us pass the check, and that's what I meant by "help".

Fair enough. I consider making it hard for Cylons to screw the check very helpful, but I get what you mean.

OK, let's go for the skill check.

Skill check it is. I have COs from Mr Zarek: play an Investigative Committee-4. This is the only available interrupt, as Blue already counts positive; we can move straight into the check. Mr Zarek starts that, and I have more COs:
Destiny:
Y1, P2
Zarek:
no cards
Helo:
no cards
Starbuck:
Tigh:
Apollo:
Chief:
Current Tally: 2 - 1 = 1. Starbuck, you're up. You can post your choice of play directly in this thread, as all cards are played face up.
