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

BSG

Helo has opted to draw 1 Blue, move to Caprica and activate it to draw 2 Crisis Cards. Cards on their way. helo, when you're ready, please post your choice.

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

BSG

I am very glad I grew that moustache.

twirls moustache evilly

It looks like someone upstairs heard about the piss-poor showing by those four Raiders. Clearly, these guys need some backup.

So they sent in a Cylon Swarm.

Our wings are not tired

BSG

Yikes! This is not good. If you can XO me I can get the civvies moved away from the five raiders and find out if we've got a fuel risk on them as well.

Such villainy! First things first, the (existing) basestar fires:

Die roll = 6. Hit! Helo has opted to damage Galactica. Go figure. Lose 1 Food.

That concludes Helo's turn. Roslin's cards are going out now. President Roslin, when you're ready, please post your move and action.

It's not like they need that Food anyway. They're not going to be having any parties in the Hangar Deck any time soon.

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

Die roll = 6. Hit! Helo has opted to damage Galactica. Go figure. Lose 1 Food.

Ouch. They hit us right in the bread basket. t rimshot

Sorry, sorry. A little loopy this morning, apparently.

Now seems like a very good time for a nuke on the basestar in Sector 1. Though I think XOing Dee to get civvies out of immediate danger takes priority. Two comm activations could get all of them into Sector 6 (which is apparently where the party is at. SPACE PARTY! In your face, Helo!) with me and the 3 RSVs.

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

BSG

One of these days, I will get to do something other than play XOs on other people. I have fun presidential stuff to try if I ever get the chance.

But none that will save those civvies, any of whom could be carrying the frakking fuel we need to get to Kobol, so I will not move and play an XO-1 on Dee. Don't be a cylon, Dee.

BSG

Dee, you have received an XO. You may either move and take an action, or not move and take two actions. When you're ready, please post your orders.
