Just the state of interrupts for this scouting mission:
Boomer:pass
Zarek: waiting on orders
Helo: pass
Tigh: pass
Chief: pass
Apollo: pass
Don't forget, should the roll result in a crash & burn of the Raptor, Helo does have a once-per-turn re-roll ability. So please send CO's for that just-in-case.
I thought if you executed a Cylon, they had to reveal? Or did Cain/Adama not get their Cylon card until after they were executed?
Correct on both counts. He didn't turn until the Sleeper phase.

The reroll uses the same modifiers as the original roll; no extra COs needed.

The reroll uses the same modifiers as the original roll; no extra COs needed.
But if nobody plays a modifier, then when the re-roll happens, can't interrupts happen?
BSG

No; it's a reroll of the same roll, so it uses the same modifiers. (This also means that if anyone plays an SP on the original roll, it would affect the reroll too.)

We are still resolving Helo's turn, right?
BSG
Yes, still resolving Helo's turn. I'm going to save my cards, pass on interrupts and count on Helo's re-roll ability to make the scouting mission a success.
I'm out. See yas tomorrow.
I posted about this on FB the other day, but I'm playing through Halo 3: ODST and I'm amused to have "Mal Reynolds" ordering "Jayne" and "Wash" around (and having romantic bickering...with Cylon Number 6.)
