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

Ok, let's check out these manifests. There's a "My colony was attacked by the Cylons, and all I got was this lousy t-shirt" t-shirt, an Aerelon pot-belly pig - who travels with one pig? - a Caprica Buccaneers jersey, with Caprica Buccaneer still attached... Ooh, sweet. One of those ships has a genuine original recording of "Mr Roboto", with actual robots! That's going to be worth a few points.
Move both ships into Sector 5.

Well, ok. Both those puppies are moved. Damn shame. Those raiders were getting close. There could have been action. I could have been rolling dice. Assessing damage. It'd have been better than Vegas. Noooooo. Boomer has to play "follow the leader" with the civvies, and move them to Sector 5. Whatever.
But hey. That means it's Crisis Card time!

Details to be sent shortly. Discuss options, and e-mail CO's. Also, post if anyone wants to play an interrupt. Since blue is already positive, it's just IC's.

A tracking device? No, don't be silly, it's a Mr Roboto recording! This is my ticket to scavenger hunt glory! ...The b-side? Um, lessee... something called "All Along The Watchtower". No, I've never heard of it before. Does it mean anything to you?
Ok, that's not good. We fail this, it undoes the Admiral's good work in nuking that basestar, and my moving the civvies too. No jump icon either. On the plus side, Helo, Apollo and I all have pretty full hands right now, and these are good colours for us. I think we'll want to give this a hefty push.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
BSG
I can only help a little but I agree it's very important we pass this check. Do we still have an IC?
I pass on interrupts

After all Boomer's work, I call foul! Also, I call an Investigative Committee to look into this nasty toy.
I play a Y3 interrupt.

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 can help a lot with this check. (And pass on interrupts, since Helo covered the IC and a SR isn't go to help.)
(Side Note: Have we had a single check in the dark in this game? Seems like we've been keeping the Cylons on their toes with constant ICs. Maybe that's why I haven't been feeling much in the way of dread/paranoia.)

I believe you're right. It's great to have so many players drawing yellow. I still have not one whit of a clue who our cylons are.

I think we had one check early on that was in the dark. And the one that y'all intentionally failed didn't have an IC.
That being said, we have ourselves an open check going on! First up to bat is Destiny. Let's see if she's a bitch or babe.

Huh. Neither bitch nor babe. Kinda like kissing your sister. A waste of cards, if you ask me. Oh well.
So? CO's anyone?
