Good morning my pretties. Looks like everything was done for me overnight. How nice.
Helo's
P3
means rolling is moot, and the Admiral has very kindly left COs for his scouting mission. It's so rare that Admirals take on those menial tasks. He has chosen to leave the current Crisis on top, which now means he must
Rescue the Fleet.
I'm sure he'll do his best, because he cares just that much. Details to be sent shortly.
BSG
This is not a skill check, but Baltar's Delusional Intuition is still going strong. Therefore, could the President please post the color for his final card draw? Ta, ever so.
BSG
I had a feeling you'd pick that.
Baltar (that weasel!) took the last purple, so Tactics has now been reshuffled.
BSG
The Fleet needs rescuing? To the Adama!Cave!
Let's canvass some opinions. We're in decent shape on both Pop and Morale. Population has the greater capacity to sink quickly, if we hit a bad patch of attacks, so I'm inclined to take the Morale hit. The new ships don't concern me greatly, as I also suggest that we jump on Helo's turn, now that we're at step 4 on the jump track. This'll be a ninja mission, kids! Jump in, grab 'em, jump out again before the Cylons know what hit 'em. Whaddya think? Ready for adventure?
BSG
Seems like we'd want to jump on my turn either way, since Starbuck is looming on the horizon. Given that, losing Morale does seem like the better price.
Also, flippin' out like a mammal -> good times.
BSG
Ok, let's do that then. I choose:
-1 Morale, new friends!
BSG
Thinking ahead: since no one is already in FTL Control, would there be any benefit to an XO?
BSG
An XO lets you move and take 1 action, or take 2 actions. So, someone could move to FTL and then jump the fleet.
