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.

Helo's cards are on the way.

BSG

OK, so I could discard a card and move to FTL myself and jump. I could XO someone to do the same thing. Any other good options?

BSG

BTW, Adama, I didn't delete your XO from the spreadsheet, so I believe you should have only had 2 cards left after your turn, and 1 now, so I've gone back and edited the turn summaries.

Yep, that matches my records.

I think those are our best options. You could XO Baltar to Consolidate Power and/or work the Quorum, but I like jumping. I invested in a pair of kanga boots for just such an occasion. t boingboingboing

Ok chaps, team meeting! We'll be jumping shortly, which I think we can all agree is largely due to your Admiralissimo. Yes, thank you, very proud. Now, it's quite likely that we'll experience some turbulence hereafter. Starbuck's MUWAHAHAs reverberate through the inky vacuum of space, we can be sure she's planning something unpleasant. There's probably another toaster stashed away somewhere too. Keep your eyes out for anyone who sprouted a goatee during the coming jump.

So things could get bumpier, and while the fleet's resources are holding up well, those of the crew are stretched. Efficiency is the goal here; let's build up some reserves. Helo, you've done a stellar job in making our recent efforts a success, and in this and so many other ways, you're just like the son I never had. Still, I'd suggest that we let the raptor pilots try things on their own for a while, keep any other plans for possibly more crucial situations. Watch out for having too much of our card strength concentrated in one person too.

Right, I think that's everything! Group hug! t boingboingboing

I...never know quite how I feel after one of the Admiral`s pep talks. But yes, things are definitely gearing up. I support our policy of once more getting the heck out of here. There is still a population loss risk, so we could conceivably wait for the auto-jump, but Kobol awaits.
