Ouch. At least it was one of us who could make the choice instead of coming up for a toaster.
Exactly. And, at 7 points, those card losses weren't bad.
Right, there comes a point where you have to either move on, or just buy yourself a Klingon costume and go with it.

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

I swear, Omnis has the "Deluxe Famine Edition!!!" of the game.Sorry!
I will log those discards when I get home. And then start the activation phase. Thankfully it's only one basestar in the air.

Does anything happen if we're jumping though?

I believe the activation happens before the jump track. I will confirm what the rule book says when I get home (unless one of you has it handy and wants to quote chapter/verse).

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

That is correct, so the basestar does get a shot off before you jump.

Oh, I know, I'm just saying that there's nothing in a civvie sector, is there? Or does the basestar attack Galactica?
Regardless, we have to wait until you get home for the jump draw anyway.
ETA: Basestar x-post!

Yes, basestars only ever attack Galactica, not civvies. This is the only activation that would do anything before you jumped.

I think for basestars it should be a *-post.

In the meantime, since we're going to jump and no longer need immediate FTL, where should Tigh move on my turn? He has no cards so we might as well get the most out of the move.
Research lab to draw purple? We know how much he likes his still there.

t crosses fingers that basestar hits FTL drive.
