Since morale is so high, do we need to win this check?
Can you send Tigh to sick bay?
(not here. Working. well, now trying to sleep before another long day).

Hey gang. Today was long and brutal at work. Tomorrow, hopefully better. Oy this new venue is NOT ready yet.
That said, I sent BT co's for this card play based on my question in the previous post.
I also sent co's for my turn.

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

Can you send Tigh to sick bay?
You can. The latest FAQ, out after the release of Pegasus, changes this ruling, but I don't want to change the rules halfway through the game. A character currently in the Brig is a legitimate target for sending to Sickbay.
I have passes on all interrupts. Helo starts this check. His COs depend on the discussion he's opened here, so I'll let others respond first.

I usually err on the side of "save the stuff that can be saved" - in this case, Morale cannot be regained as easily as lost, while cards spent on the check are replaced every turn.
I'm not fixed on this course, though.

Yeah, the morale loss is inconsequential and wasting cards on the check seems foolish. The sickbay thing is more of a problem because it prevents a full card draw.
The only way it would be a good idea to send me to Sickbay is if either Helo or Starbuck can XO me so I can get out of there before my turn. We really don't want any of us missing our card draw.
Send me to sickbay.
Knowing my luck the destiny deck will score higher than 5.

ahhh stress. Wakes you up early too. Joy.

I was thinking of XO'ing Starbuck, as she is in weapons, two shots with my lovely ability to re roll one of them. Should I XO you instead? Or Starbuck, will you XO Tigh out of the brig?
Not sure when I can check the thread. BT, if gameplay needs to move on, go with what the HUMANS say.

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
I'm human. Honest.
ETA: And I'm feeling sort of under the weather. Cough. Cough-cough. Maybe it would be best if I was sent to sickbay.

just to be clear here, what are people proposing? Is the vote to attempt the check, or let it tank? (I normally don't ask, but I want to ensure I interpret Helo's COs properly.)
