Jayne (Husband): Oh, I think you might wanna reconsider that last part. See, I married me a powerful ugly creature. Mal (Wife): How can you say that? How can you shame me in front of new people? Jayne (Husband): If I could make you purtier, I would. Mal (Wife): You are not the man I met a year ago.

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

BSG

Correct. That's why I'm thinking the roll would be a better options. Although, it's a high roll, no?

If you choose the die roll, you have a 5 in 8 chance of losing Fuel. With an SP, it would be 3 in 8.

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

BSG

You're not factoring in how the die seems to hate us.

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.

BSG

We'll go with the die roll. I'll play my P5 Strategic Planning.

Die roll it is. Let's see how you fare:

Die roll: 4 + 2 = 6. Success! You lose no Fuel.

Next, the raiders activate, and move to Sector 3. Finally, the jump prep track advances by 1.

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

We need someone in Communications STAT! We need to start doing the dance of the civilians. Can we hit the FTL? What's the consequences?

Sure, I can hit the FTL. I just need another basestar activation and a bit of luck. The consequences are less hilarious now you've moved to the Hangar Deck, though. Maybe I should hit that instead.

Ha! Silly, trigger happy GM. By hit, I mean ACTIVATE.

No, it won't activate the thing. Just make it go boom.
