I have COs from all players to pass on Strategic Planning. Let's see if all that radiation exposure has affected the Admiral's aim:
Die roll = 7. Hit! Scar is destroyed! Admiral Karl "Deadeye" Agathon does a couple of victory laps. Sadly, the rest of the viper detail aren't nearly so perky. They've been out there for a long time, and now they're suffering from:
Sleep Deprivation
Admiral's Choice
Admiral, when you're ready, please post your choice.
BSG
Die roll = 7. Hit! Scar is destroyed!
SUCK IT!
The Admiral's going to go relax at a comedy club after his kickass shooting, so he won't be making his choice for a few hours. Discuss amongst yourselves until he returns.
BSG
Nice shooting, Helo.
With Scar gone and no raiders currently in space, I vote for grounding the vipers. We can get some launched pretty quickly if we need to and we really can't afford to keep losing Morale.
Let's just hope this shot from the basestar doesn't hit Command or the Hanger Deck, though we've still got Helo's re-roll if it does hit us.
BSG
That sounds reasonable.
BSG
yeah, I'm OK with option 1 as long as we remember to xo Admiral Helo before his next turn.
BSG
I should be able to help the Admiral recover from his sleep deprivation. Said help may involve ambrosia :)
BSG
Come on home, Vipers. I'm exhausted after that exciting dogfight. I choose Option 1 and chill out in the Sickbay.
Let's just hope this shot from the basestar doesn't hit Command or the Hanger Deck
No worries. What do you think we have Pegasus for? (Um, sorry, Gaeta. If the basestar hits you, I do have a re-roll.)
After the basestar adventure is over, I finally have a chance to get rid of these godsdamn Treachery cards that have been cluttering up my hand: I discard BL-1 and SD-2.
BSG
Thanks to the marvels of modern technology, this update is coming to you from the Men's final of the Australian Open. Help has proven that he is the caring Admiral. All the pilots get their ninny-byes, and Helo heads to Sickbay.
Next, the basestar opens fire.
Die roll = 7. Hit! But Helo uses his reroll:
Die roll = 1. Miss.
The jump track also advances. Finally, Helo discards 2 cards (as given above). That concludes Helo's turn. I'm sending Roslin's cards out now. President Roslin, when you're ready, please post your move and action.
