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.

Very cool.

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

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

Hey Team (assumed all) Humans. I'm thinking an XO here for someone to fire on that humping double Y ship. What do we think? I wish it could be Helo, so when his turn comes up, he can stay there and get that cool reroll ability if he shoots a blank the first time.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

BSG

I'd be happy to have the chance to fire on the toasters, sir.

Boomer, I love your enthusiasm. Admiral, Mr President, what to y'all think?

Get Boomer out there where she can do some frakking good.

BSG

Aye Aye, Dad... er... Admiral!

MOVE
I move my viper to sector 4 with the civvies

ACTION
I play my #2 XO card (sorry, it's at home, forget exacts, XO's are green right?) and XO Boomer. Hopefully she will go to Weaps and fire on that frakkin mother ship! But Once I XO her, I have no say it what she does (see, I'm learning!).

Aye aye, sir. I move to Weapons Control and fire on the basestar.

it works better when Pete is playing and the phrase "Blow It Up, Blow It Up, Blow It Up" comes to mind. Since. Well, if you pull a "Pete" in Burnout 2, you never quite hear that phrase. Either way, I'm chanting "Blow It Up!" to get that big mama-jo off the table!
