You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

BSG

so... I'd like to xo someone to FTL. Do we have any idea of who's less likely to be a cylon or shall I just throw a dart?

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

BSG

You could do it yourself. Or use the Engine Room, which would guarantee us an Auto Jump with your crisis, I believe.

If you want to XO someone, not me because I'd have to spend three cards to do it, no Starbuck because she's after you, and not Dee because she's in the brig and would have to get out first. So Ellen's really your only choice.

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

I'd recommend doing it yourself. Population isn't in danger at the moment, and if your Crisis does have a jump icon on it, we can advance the jump track 1 immediately after the jump.

Of course, on the flipside, if the Crisis is a Cylon Attack, we're going to be stuck with them for awhile. So if you've got two really low cards, activating the Engine Room to force an auto jump regardless of crisis isn't a bad plan either.

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

BSG

Dee is sent to the Brig. Finally, the jump prep track advances by 1. That concludes Roslin's turn. I'm sending Gaeta his cards. Admiral Gaeta, when you're ready, please post your move and action.

I can discard a Treachery card to activate the engine room, right?

BSG

I move to the Engine Room and discard 2 cards to activate the Engine Room. Just making sure I can use a brown one for this before I post my discard.

BSG

You can use a Treachery card. However, if a revealed Cylon (of which there is one) holds a Sabotage card, they may then play it to damage Galactica (or, if the current player prefers, Pegasus).

Our wings are not tired

BSG

So is there any chance of me making a case for getting released from the brig?

ahh. Pretty sure Helo still has some treachery up his sleeve. I discard R1x2 (blue) and goose those engines.
