What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

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.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

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.

Gaeta, feel free to do a little dance and sing, "Nanny nanny boo boo," at the basestar.

That's true. I am the Admiral. Dance, Gaeta, or it's the airlock for you!

I see Laura's influence is more widespread than I'd thought.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

BSG

If Madame President has an XO, I suggest XOing someone (Helo would be good to also get him out of Sickbay) to go to Weapons Control and shoot that Basestar. We really need to take that thing out before we jump, or else it's going to get shuffled back into the deck (which means Scar will also get shuffled back in.)

If you don't have an XO, more Quorum Cards never hurt.

For my movement, I play a Preventive Policy - 4 (yellow) to help us all keep our Morale up. Cake with my tea, please, Billy. Let's have some dancing, Two-Legs.

And that's enough malingering from you, Admiral. Get rid of that pesky basestar, would you? XO-2 for Helo.
