Hey, I've been in a firefight before! Well, I was in a fire. Actually, I was fired from a fry-cook opportunity. I can handle myself.

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.

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.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

BSG

Let's try Purple.

I had a feeling you'd pick that.

Baltar (that weasel!) took the last purple, so Tactics has now been reshuffled.

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

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.

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.
