I do not move.

Draw 1 Purple card.

Glare menacingly at the toasters safely behind bars.

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 Zarek his card. His crisis is:

Water Sabotaged

Mr Zarek, when you're ready please post your choice.

Oy. Such a choice. Human-type-people, do you think we could hit 13? I'm very tempted to suggest simply accepting the loss, and not risking DOUBLE the loss (and halving our food).

What say you good people?

Trying to blow 13 points worth of cards to miss -2 food when we can just accept -1? Not worth the cards.

Lose the one food. We want to save cards for when our lowest scores are targeted.

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

BSG

I agree. No point wasting a ton of cards to risk loosing 2 food. Take the -1 food hit and call it done.

That's a majority (2 of you and me), so:

BT - I take Option 2, the -1 Food loss.

The fleet loses 1 Food. We again ignore the Cylon activation, as there are no ships on the board. The jump prep track advances by 1.

This concludes Mr Zarek's turn. Helo, I'm sending your cards. When you're ready, please post your move and action.

Helo, if you don't have anything specific you need to accomplish, can you XO me?

Do we want me to scout destination? Or are we not close enough to jump that it would be worth while?
