move out and draw fire

I'm pretty sure we've done this before.

All of this has happened before...

Wow. That's a lot toasters.

As I am XOed, I will take the following 2 actions:

Action 1: Activate FTL Control to jump us the frak away from the toaster party.

Action 2: Play a Y2 Consolidate Power to draw 2 Yellow cards.

May the gods be with us.

I recall having the re-roll/SP debate when I played Helo. I could be wrong, but it rings a bell. I also recall the answer is NO! And for continuity sake, we will maintain that call.

So? We have a roll on call. Does anyone wish to play a P3-5 SP to help that roll? It would turn the roll into a 50% rather than the 75% it normally is.

OK, I have CO's from everyone now on this roll. We need a 6 or better to jump the fleet without killing anyone. The Magic 8 ball rolls a 2!

Ouch. Just as one of the civilian ships FTL doesn't spin up. Helo enacts his once per turn ability to re-roll! And that roll is: 1! Ouch. Sorry about that. Since you are in the Blue -1 spot on the jump track, then we drop a population to make this jump. E-mail being formed to the Admiral to pick a destination. Once that is decided, we will go with action #2.

While we wait for the Admiral to make a choice, I have dealt the two yellow cards to the Chief. He took the last of the deck, so Politics has been reshuffled.

eta: Also, while we are passing along info. With the jump (when it's decided on destination) it will clear the communications jamming, so now you can activate Comm's and move ships.

Well, that didn't work.

I still feel good about our chances. Population is still doing okay, and hopefully we'll get a good jump that takes us more than 1 distance. With both toasters reveled, Crisises are going to be harder to pass and resources are going to take a beating, so the faster we can make progress, the better.

Well, at least we didn't waste an SP. And we needed to jump.

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

BSG

And Gemenon chooses to stay behind, because Gemenon knows how to ROCK!! Am I right? Yeah, you know it.

With both toasters reveled

TOTALLY reveled. You would not believe the revels here. We wrote the Book of REVEL-ation here. REVEL NATION, know what I'm saying? We're revels without a cause. Revels without a pause, that's the basestar life.

Sorry, what were we talking about again?
