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?
BSG
I vote for option 1 unless we're doing weighted voting in which case I put shooting at the base star first, jumping early second and launching youself in a viper 3rd.
BSG
If no XO is available, I think firing from weapons on a basestar is the best bet at this time. No raiders are in direct conflict with colonials at this time. We should get someone to communications, so we can start moving around to dance away raiders when they activate. But first things first right now, get rid of the basestars! I'm afraid I can *not* help with an SP.
BSG
Okay, BS consensus is to shoot a basestar. So:
Move: None
Action: Fire on one of the basestars in sector 2.
I will pass on playing my SP, but I will use my re-roll ability on a miss.
BSG
Helo is firing on a basestar, which can be modified by an SP. He has passed on interrupts; we'll pause for everyone else to pass or play.
BSG
I have passes from the other players; let's do this. Helo fires upon a basestra:
Attack:
3. Miss. Helo applies his reroll:
Attack:
4. Miss. Sorry.
As a consolation prize, allow me to offer you:

Helo, when you're ready, please post your choice.

I can help a lot with this check... oh wait, I'm in the brig. I can only help a little.
BSG
Well that sucked.
I think we're not in too bad of shape on fuel, but we could always get hit with a crisis or two (or lose a civie) that could make it more urgent.
I can help with the check if we want go that route, though.
BSG
I would really hate to kill another raptor. We are already down to half of them. Too bad the re-roll was used, and in vain. I'm leaning to option 2, but certainly open for debate.
