Continuation of first action: I play Mission Specialist on Helo.

Congratulations, Helo, your long hours frakkin' a toaster in deep-space has given you a deep knowledge of scouting. Sure, I can believe that. Right.

I draw 2 Politics cards and Helo, the next time we jump you choose the destination. Better yet, you get 3 cards to choose from rather than 2.

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 President Tigh his two Politics cards (administrative note: Mr Zarek's card draw had exhausted the Politics deck. I've reshuffled the discards) and a new Quorum card. He may now either draw another Quorum card or play one.

That concludes Tigh's XO. Next we have Helo's crisis card:

Missing G4 Explosives
Skill Check 7 GP

We will pause for Investigative Committee and/or Scientific Research interrupts.

Well, I think it's worth trying to pass this one.

Damn no jump check again.

P.S. Y'know, Morale is comically high.

Electromagnetic candy! - Stark

I can help - quite a bit, actually - in this check.

(I believe it's safe to assume I have some past experience with explosive devices.)

I have passes on all interrupts, and a dodgy Internet connection. Destiny plays 2 cards. Starbuck, you're up first. Helo will finish the check. Reminder: you can send me COs before your turn. In addition, Starbuck, can you let me know what you would like for your card draw on your turn? Thanks.

Ah, the tradition of the Admiral on an all-day binge continues.

I play 2 cards.
