Looks like the Admiral's information campaign of "THEY LOOK JUST LIKE US NOW! THEY COULD BE ANYONE!", "DEE TRICKED US ALL AND NOW HALF OF HUMANITY IS DEAD", "MY LEG, MY LEG" and of course "THERE ARE MONSTERS IN THE TOILET, JUST WAITING FOR YOU TO TURN YOUR BACK" wasn't as reassuring as he'd hoped. The fleet loses 2 Morale.
Next, the raiders activate. There are 5 of them in Sector 6, who open fire on the RSVs and Starbuck:
Raider 1 = 3. Miss.
Raider 2 = 5. Viper damaged!
Raider 3 = 7. Viper damaged!
Raider 4 = 5. Viper damaged!
Starbuck stands alone.
Raider 5 = 2. Miss.
The raiders from Sectors 2 and 3 advance to sectors 1 and 4 respectively.
In happier news, Ellen's turn ends with the jump prep track advancing. For his turn, Helo has opted to draw Piloting, Engineering and Treachery. Helo, when you're ready, please post your move and action.

Now you will all feel the wrath of AGATRON! Unlike my compatriot, I attack with the
mind,
not with the metal. Please enjoy my Super Crisis:
Psychological Warfare.
BSG
First his reveal, and now this. AGATRON is just all about the Treachery, isn't he? Helo has played Psychological Warfare. President Roslin, when you're ready, please post your choice. Everyone else can send me COs for if she chooses the discard option.
BSG
I believe this is actually Pradmiral Gaeta's decision.
BSG
What if I don't want to be president anymore? /whine
Option 2 seems slightly less bad but I'll pause for other human input.
BSG
I think I agree with that. The revealed Cylons are going to get cards either way, we just tossed our Treachery cards, and we just took a Morale hit.
BSG
I do love when the humans have to make a decision between "bad" and "slightly less bad." But which is which? YOUR PSYCHOLOGY IS AT WAR.
BSG
We need Tom Cruise to take care of this for us. He knows psychology.
Failing that, I can support Option 2. I can also support the Pradmiral flipping a coin. Yay for me not having to decide!
BSG
I'm heading out so I'll go ahead and
Choose Option 2.
May the gods be with us.
