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.

We're at risk of losing 1 pop on a roll of 6 or less at the moment.
If someone's got an SP, jumping may be the way to go right now. We'd have a 50% chance of losing 1 population but we wouldn't have to risk taking any more fire from that basestar and losing FTL Control again.

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

I feel like we risk just as much population by staying as we do by jumping early.

Guys, I can talk the Quorum of 12 into authorizing some assistance that could be very helpful right now--but we will still be in this sector with the billion Cylons--or I could spend a card and get to FTL.
Any preferences/suggestions?
PS: I finally got more BSG to borrow from friends (I'd stopped halfway through Season 3 before)... and the 1st episode I started watching I believe was the inspiration for our last crisis. Pretty cool, in a "Crap, I know a little how they feel," kind of way.

What kind of help can the Quorum provide?

I'm kinda leaning towards getting out of here.

Laga -- help take out some of the Cylons.
But not by any means all of them. We'd still be at risk but I think I can give our Civvies a fighting chance and the risk of population loss would be less than jumping now.

Does one more jump prep put us out of danger of losing population?

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

One more jump prep icon will see the fleet jump automatically at no risk of loss.

I agree, while loosing a straggler in the early jump would suck, I think the amount of damage and population loss waiting to get to auto jump would be worse. We are already halfway home, and have nominal population loss. I fixed the frakin' FTL, lets use it, and get the frell out of here!
