Huh. I thought I had posted last night that I pass on interrupts, but I guess not. Either the radiation is finally getting to me, or the cylons are messing with my mind.

I pass on interrupts.

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

BSG

Hey! I have a Purple 3! Let's really scout this mofo! I add two to the scouting roll.

Apollo scouting crisis deck interrupts

Boomer: Pass
Zarek: Play!
Helo: Pass
Tigh: Pass
Chief: Pass
Apollo: Pass

Woot!

The roll is a 4. No need to do the fun math from Mr. President, the roll stood up on it's own (too bad the card is still played).

The details of the crisis card have been sent to the young Mr. Adama. He has elected to bury it, opting for door #2.

That really ends Chiefs turn. Apollo already has his card draw. All that is left is for him to confer then post his move and action .

Since they're currently no raiders in the air, I say the priority is to fire on the basestars to hopefully keep them from launching said raiders.

Once they start launching raiders, we need to get some more vipers in the air and get the civvies consolidated where the vipers can protect them. With food as low as it is we really can't afford to lose any civilian ships.

I'm confused, weren't we on Apollo's turn?

I'm confused too. Where are we in my turn?

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

BSG

We were not, but it is pretty confusing. Apollo used his Alert Viper Pilot ability on the Chief's Crisis Card. Here's how it went:

1. Chief has his turn.
2. His Crisis Card is Heavy Assault, adding ships to the board.
3. Apollo uses his Alert Viper Pilot ability to commandeer the viper that was set up in Sector 6. AVP gives him a bonus action. He used it to scout the Crisis Deck and bury it.
4. The rest of the Crisis Card resolves (the basestars fired on Galactica, and missed).
5. Chief's turn ends and Apollo's turn begins.

It gets confusing because we had to rewind a bit to give Apollo the chance to use his AVP; but that's how it works out in the right order.

I thought we were at the point where we drew the crisis card. But I've had a few margaritas, so what do I know?

But you dealt Apollo his cards:

Apollo has opted for green cards on this turn.
