Even with a pass, that basestar still gets activated and launches raiders.
The basestar roll is... an 8! Lucky for the humans, it's the Admiral's Quarters that got hit. Don't figure you'll be needing that anytime soon, although I know the Pradmiral is very emotionally attached to them.
Also, 3 more raiders (that makes 9!) have been launched into Sector 1.

It's true. My quarters are like the son I never had.

Helo's cards to be sent.

Whoo! And hey, go big or go home, right? That was all very dramatic.
BSG
well at least you used up lots of cards.
BSG

Yep, including the interrupts we spent 35 points, 14 cards in total (half our holdings). That was a monster check. (I quite like the Super Crisis mechanism, it makes the game more interesting for the Cylons, and gives the humans one more thing to worry about. The Pegasus expansion adds five more Super Crisis cards, and Cylons can pick up extra SCs. I had one game where the Cylons drew five SCs between them, played four of them, and still lost.)
BSG
Hmmm. Holding back a DE to bait the Cylons into playing into the check. I wonder where I saw that one before?
Oh, well. I had a feeling you guys were going to pass it with the number of cards you had and the fact that only Yellow was negative (I was actually suprised that Destiny was negative, even if only barely so.) but I doubted I'd see a better time to use it.
BSG
Wheee, that was exciting!
Now let's get out of here. Pradmiral, did you say something about helping with jump prep? Should I wait for that or go ahead?

Sadly, I don't think we can wait any longer. Especially with Starbot's turn next, we can't defend the civvies as it stands. Whether you XO the Chief to do it, or decide to go hands-on, I think we need to jump now.
BSG
Right. Well, then I think I will stay here in the Armory and hope my aim improves shortly, and play an XO-1 on Chief Tyrol to fire up FTL.
