Wow. I'm getting serious flashbacks of the face space game I just played last weekend. And I just realized the character roster is the same, only we have added Helo.
Hmmm...[eyes the Chief suspiciously].
Hey, bub, what'd I ever do to you? Other than get you out of sickbay, I mean. There's gratitude for ya'. Past performance is not indicative of future returns. That is to say, Chiefs you have known in the past are not this Chief! Heh.
Wow, that Starbuck sure is an amazing pilot.
Yeah, nice shooting. She's the son Adama never had, you know.
Okay, to clarify on this one, we get a normal crisis Jump Prep track advance,
plus
if we pass the skill check we get an additional Jump Prep advance?
I do not have an IC, more's the pity. But I can help with the check a little.
BSG
I can potentially help a lot with this check. But I can't play an interrupt.
BSG
That is to say, Chiefs you have known in the past are not this Chief! Heh.
So you're saying... there are many copies? Hmm...
Okay, to clarify on this one, we get a normal crisis Jump Prep track advance, plus if we pass the skill check we get an additional Jump Prep advance?
Yes, if you pass, you would advance a total of 2 spaces on the Jump Prep track.
Yeah, okay, that's important.
BSG
I can help a lot with this check.
I don't have an IC, so pass on interrupts.
BSG
Okay, given my standing CO's, that's everyone, and that makes this a closed check. Please send CO's to me or post your card contribution here.
11 YPB (plus G1s and R1s)
Destiny:
2 cards
Baltar:
3 cards
Helo:
4 cards
Starbuck:
Chief:
CO's in hand
Adama:
BSG
OK, even if Destiny is negative, we'll be getting pretty close to passing this already (as long as both Helo and Baltar are on the up and up, which I believe they are). Starbuck, Chief, if one of you can throw in a card, and I'll throw in a card too, that should see us right.
BSG
Yeah, I don't want us to overshoot, either, but this is a pretty important check. But, and not to stir up the paranoia too early or anything, the odds are reasonable that someone is not on the up and up, and I really don't want to miss this one. Population loss is pretty hard to replace, as far as I can tell, and we're already in threat of boarding, so I don't much fancy moving that process up.
Of course there are other threats coming up as well, so we don't want to deplete our cards. Hard to know. Too bad we didn't have that IC.
