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

I've sent Mr Zarek his new Tactics card. Time for his Crisis card. You knew it was coming.

Cylon Swarm
Cylon Attack

This concludes Zarek's turn. Helo, I'm sending your card draw. When you're ready, please post your action.

Helo, can you XO Starbuck? I know we want to get out but nuking the Basestar right now would be a really good idea.

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

I was thinking an XO. What do we think are our priorities? Fire weapons? Repair vipers?

NUKING THE BASESTAR!

What I do after you XO me is not up to you (though yes, discussion is good). We are going to beat this into you if it kills you.

JUST XO ME SO I CAN NUKE THE BASESTAR!

It's like I'm writing a love letter to Sean.

MOVE. Can't. Restrained. Action. Play my lowest valued XO card to Starbuck.

BSG

Omnis, you state the value of the card you're using to XO because it is played openly.

Sean, you do not have to move anywhere to use the nuke, though getting to the hanger bay as a second action might not be a bad idea OR as a second action, brigging Tyrol would be wise. Very wise, actually.

When you fire the nuke, I will play a P3 Strategic Planning to bump up the result by 2.

In which case, for my first action I will nuke the basestar. For my second action I will activate the Admiral's Quarters and attempt to brig the Chief.

I really can't help on the check to brig Tyrol. I don't know if anyone else can, but I don't have any helpful cards left. Let's hope this works.
