Baltar has been sent his Super Crisis Card. Cards to be sent to Helo anon.
BSG
Note: Both Leadership (green) and Piloting (red) were depleted after Helo's draw. They have both been reshuffled.
BSG
Hm. Well, shooting centurions does sound like a good time. I'd want SP help for that.
OTOH, we're theoretically closer to jumping than being destroyed by the boarding party, depending on how the crises go. And two actions rather than one, always appealing.
Chief, have an opinion?
I will
move
to the
Armory
while I'm thinking.
BSG
To aid in your cogitations:
1. I can supply an SP.
2. You raise a good point that we're likely to jump before the Centurions get too far. On the other hand, there are two of them. (And then again, I can make good use of both actions if XO'd, so that does raise efficiency.)
BSG
Eh, when in doubt,
XO-1 Adama.
Wield your mighty power, Pradmojitohips.
BSG
It's just... a jump to the left!
Action 1: Play LS-1 on the Destination Deck, pass on interrupts
And then a step to the ri-i-i-i-i-ight
Action 2: Activate President's Office
I'll see my first draw before deciding whether to put my hands on my hips or bring my knees in tight.
In non-BSG news. We played
Dominion
last night. Way big fun. At first I was put off by the fact that it's a card game but it came in a big square box so I was all, "where is the board? Where are the tokens?" But after some initial fear that it was toooo hard I quickly caught on and I want to play again, now! omnis, you must come over and play some time.
Dominion is a ton of fun. It is high on my list of games to buy.
We played a bunch of games of Dominion over Christmas, trying all their suggested card combinations. In the end, the ones we came up with were much better than the groups they suggest, but it's good to start with theirs to get a feel for the different cards.
BSG
Okay, I have COs for interrupts on the Destination scouting mission, of which there are none. However, you do have Helo's re-roll.
But, once again, it turns out that you do not need his manly arms as you have rolled...
a 5!
Details on the scouting mission and then the Quorum card to be sent to the Pradmiral.
