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

That was a thing of beauty.

Correction to the e-mail. As outlined on p22 of the rules, if no raiders are on the board, and an activation happens of raiders, then each Basestar launches 2 of those puppies.

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

I could be sent to Sickbay? Just how hard was Helo spanking me?

Huh, looks like there is a missing set of handcuffs from the brig. Heeeeloooo? Empty your pockets!

non-BSG!

I went to the Goodwill store, seeing if they had any inexpensive bar stools for my new apartment. And what did I see on the shelf? An Atari Joystick! The Jacks Pacific battery operated, audio/video cable 10 games in a joystick thingy! $2! OK, why not. I get it home, and open the battery compartment to discover it's got 4 icky corroded batteries in it. Ugg. I safely extract and dispose of the batteries, "borrow" some contact cleaner from work. Viola! I have 8-bit Atari again! Woot! Reminds me of my childhood. Only now my hands smell like contact cleaner.

ETA: The games are:
Adventure
Asteroids
Breakout
Centipede
Circus Atari
Gravitar
Missile Command
Pong
Volley Ball
Yar's Revenge

And yes, I suck at 8 bit games too. Yar's Revenge seems to be my best game so far.

Ok, if Helo's got his hankering for a spankering out of his system, anyone have a preference on this one? I think we're in pretty good shape either way.

Fuel's possibly our best resource right now. 6 Fuel to cover 4 Distance is pretty comfortable. We've got all our raptors too, so it won't hurt much to lose one here.

For the other choice, Morale's still pretty good at 8. Sending me to Sickbay doesn't matter too much if I can get an XO to get out before my next turn.

I'd vote for the Fuel loss, but I'm pretty comfortable with either choice.
