one basestar and a couple of raiders isn't that threatening on their own.

Note: You also lose 1 of your 4 raptors.

All right, I'm good with that. We'll see if your scenario actually works out as possible by the time we get there, Admiral, but for now I think I can reconcile with tanking.

I pass. I also play no interrupts.

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

BSG

If Destiny turns out to have been kind, I shall cry. In a manly way.

I make it about a 1 in 6 chance of being doubly positive, which means a 5 in 6 chance of being no real help or worse. No regrets, soldier! We make our decisions best we can and we stand by them.
