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.

No interrupts here.

Today's weather forecast is for fallout in the morning with more fallout later in the day.

I'll kick in with Strategic Planning. Come on Boomer, let's start this off right by blasting those toasters out of the sky.

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

Die roll: 8 + 2 = 10. Hit! Result: Critical Hit. One more hit will destroy this basestar.

Time for Apollo's Crisis Card. You know, I occasionally wonder how the game would go if you just took all the Crisis Cards and arranged them in the order in which they occurred in the series. It wouldn't work so well for some cards, though. The attack cards, for instance, don't generally correspond to a particular episode.

There is one exception, though, and it would be the very first card of all:

Thirty Three
Cylon Attack

First, raiders activate, which means they move from Sector 1 to Sector 2. Then let's add some more ships to the board.

That concludes Apollo's turn. Helo, you're up next. I'm sending you your card draw. Because you're still stranded on Caprica, you do not have a move or action this turn. We'll get to your crisis after I post Apollo's end-of-turn summary.

Persistent death card? WTFrak? Hey, that shot Boomer took on the original baseship, are it's weapons non operational? Can it still launch raiders?
