Will get the scouting mission done when I get home. I got a dinner meeting with a sound manufacturer tonight. Dunno how late I'll be.

No rush. I feel I'm setting myself up for a fall since we've been so lucky so far and are so likely to get a bad card either way at this point.

and there is always the notion... what you bury could be as good or better than what comes up next. At least with Destination Deck, you get to pick between two cards.

OK, As you recall with these scouting missions, If 3 or higher,peek-a-boo. If 1 or 2, crash and burn a Raptor baby! Of course, our Raptor pilot is in the pokie. So I guess it'll be a RSR! Ha! Love it.

Here we go. We click the random die roll, and we get: 2!
Yikes! Ouch. Missed it by that much. Sorry about that. Well, bad news is, you lost a Raptor. Good news is, you didn't lose a named character. Guess we knew it was a goner when it was piloted by a Red Shirt!

'*Unless we want to use the once per turn re-roll (No CO's were left for this)

Yes, please. Sorry, I thought that went without saying.

Without saying? Ha! I think the GM rules of the road don't allow for "without saying". But I do suggest it.

And back from the commercial break. When last we left our lost in space crew, they sent a poor unsuspecting Red Shirt Raptor pilot out to scout the next crisis. [Random re-roll = 6!!] And just when it looks like he was about to crash and burn, his helmeted head bangs into the dash board, hitting the button on the FTL to jumps back to Galactica! I hope the dashboard camera caught some good footage (and didn't get smacked with his noggin!).

Details to Helo about the top card are on the way.

Funny how that works. Now we get to play it! E-mail sent with details. We will call this "The Pete Card"

Please jump in ASAP with interrupts. In the e-mail I say we have a 24 hour window. If you don't have the card, I automatically assume you won't interrupt with it. I know, it's a stretch. While we wait for the interrupts, PLEASE e-mail me CO's on which cards you want to play in the check.

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