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

BSG

Ok, one detail I need to check on. My previous count of your hand was incorrect, you had 14 cards. If you play 3 cards you will still need to discard one random card. Personally, I'm ok with that. I figure I should check with you, though. Do you want to keep your play at 3 cards, or add another one?

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

crap. The cards I wanna ditch I can't. The ones that will help with the check, I'm trying to hold on to. And it would be random what gets thrown away, right?

Totes. Or GM's choice, that could be fun too! Who's with me?

Very well! First things first, the cards played into the check are:

Yellow 1
Green 2
Green 2
Green 3
Green 5
Purple 1
Purple 1
Purple 1
Red 1
Red 5

Tally: 16 - 6 = 10. Check passes, Apollo stays free. There's no jump icon and no Cylon ships, so that concludes Apollo's turn. He has 11 cards left, so must discard one. Due to his weakness, this discard is... random! You lose...

R1. Bah. Where's the fun in that? I've been waiting for this all game and this is what I get? Recount!

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

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

I'll stay put and play a G1 XO on Apollo.

Let's get Galactica back to normal.

That round pretty much convinces me we've already got a toaster in the brig.

Apollo, you have received an XO. You may either move and take an action, or not move and take two actions. When you're ready, please post your orders.
