I'm up next. I'm trying to decide if I should save my XO or play it into the check. I'd like to get Starbuck into the sky but as she goes after I do it's probably unwise to XO her in case she turns out to be a cylon... Dee, would you like to fire twice at those base stars? Or should I head over to Pegasus and start working the Engine Room?
BSG
ooh!.. with Support the People I could potentially help a lot. Check's already Reckless anyway.
BSG
rice krispies... (still thinking about my turn) do we need to get those civvies moved? I could move to Pegasus and then XO someone to Communications.
BSG
I'd be happy to fire on the basestars or move civvies.
BSG
You can XO me to harvest rare Caprican plants. Hey, wait, isn't the Arrow of Apollo down here? Don't we need that? I'll go grab it. Is that legal, billytea? TELL ME THAT'S LEGAL.

It's not quite that simple. Only one Reckless check may be played on any skill check; therefore, either AAC or StP may be played, but not both. Madam President, as current player it's your choice. Would you rather Helo's AAC or Ellen's StP?

Well, it's legal, but I can't guarantee how Apollo will react to you grabbing his arrow.

If Roslin does choose Ellen's Support the People, everyone except Ellen and Helo will be eligible to draw two cards. They have to come from your skill set, but you're not limited to the numbers you normally draw. If you're eligible, send me COs for what colour(s) you would like.
BSG
Oh, sorry for the delay, that's a decision I didn't anticipate. I was busy reminding myself that we wouldn't see Destiny and trying to figure out how to account for that.
I tend to think that Supporting the People will be more apt to save Morale than At Any Cost, so let's continue with Ellen's interrupt.
And I'll take 1Y and 1G.
BSG
Roslin has chosen Support the People! (Quick formatting note: I'll ask all players, when you post orders, if you could put them in bold - to distinguish discussing what your orders might be.) I have COs from Gaeta for his draw. That leaves Dee and Starbuck. Remember - the two cards must be in your colours, but there are no other limits (so, for instance, either of you could choose 2 Blue).
Support the People
Gaeta:
2G
Starbuck:
Dee:
Roslin:
Y/G
