move out and draw fire

I'm pretty sure that there's a good chance of a Cylon victory in a game with no Cylons.

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.

I think the few cards I have would be better spent on other things. I play no cards.

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

I'm not playing any cards into this one. I think we can afford the Morale hit and I'd like to save cards for a more critical check.

BSG

I have COs from the remaining players:

Destiny: 2 cards
Helo: no cards
Zarek: 3 cards
Adama: no cards
Boomer: 1 card
Apollo: 2 cards

Results:

Green 1
Green 1
Green 2
Purple 1
Purple 3
Blue 3
Yellow 1
Red 2

As Apollo played an SR-3 on this check, Blue also counts positive. Therefore, we have:

Tally: 11 - 3 = 8. Pass - no effect.

The two basestars each launch 3 raiders.

That concludes Apollo's turn. Helo, I'm sending you your card draw. When you're ready, plesae post your move and action.

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

Um. Holy frak! 10 raiders and 2 Basestars! That's a busy sector. So? Anyone else think a nuke is in order? Wow, we have had a lot of attacks this game.

You certainly have - you've faced seven of the ten attack cards in the game so far. And yet you haven't lost a single civvie yet. You haven't even lost any vipers.

Yeah, it might be time to use the second nuke, especially if we can modify the roll.

I'd love to pull the same trick we did last time with the nuke, with the SP and my re-roll ability, but I don't have an XO this time around.

So, I can take one shot at a basestar, launch myself in a viper or try to jump us out of here with a SP and my re-roll ability at the risk of 3 population. Thoughts?
