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.
BSG
Wow, I feel so rested! I'm going to
move to Weapons Control
and
fire on the basestar.
If I miss, I will
re-roll.
BSG
whee! nananana! ow my head. Too much wine with the dancing last night.

If you jump with Relentless Pursuit still in effect, the only card from the discard pile that will get shuffled back in is Thirty Three. Scar won't get reshuffled.

I'm afraid your reroll only applies on your own turn.
Given the above, I might just reconfirm: do you still want to keep these orders, or do you wish to do something else?
BSG

Oh yeah. Damn.
Should I still give it a shot, Madame President? I was also considering Launching a Scout to make sure we keep moving towards jumping and/or make sure your Preventative Policy goes to good use. Both, if we're lucky.

Oh, okay. So is it only when a card asks you to find another specific card and apply it that the discards get shuffled back in? I thought we've encountered Crisises in the past that risked shuffling the Crisis discard back in.
BSG
I'd say take the shot. The sooner we take out that basestar, the better I'll feel. And barring a critical hit, it's going to take three shots to do it.
BSG
Yup. Shoot that basestar, Admiral. Your scouting is unnecessary with the power of my Religious Visions guiding us.

There are cards that cause the deck to be reshuffled, but nothing that rechuffles all the discards back in.
