OK, I will discard a Consolidate Power - 1 (Yellow) to move to FTL. And then I think it's time for my OPG. Come on Quorum, give me something good.

Well, crap. That was useless. The one that is the least harmful would be

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

The new Destiny Deck could include the discarded Treachery card from the old deck.

Ah, good. That's what I wanted to know. I saw some 3s in there and hope they made their way to Destiny.

I thought Quorum cards were all good! They're all about giving you resources and shit.

They might be good under the right circumstances.

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

BSG

Starbuck is now the Admiral. Both nukes have been fired, but you will still be in charge of jump destinations and and Admiral's Choice Crisis Cards.

Heh. I was just writing up this long post about Roslin's Crisis Card, and then I realised, I'd forgotten her Visions. Ms Roslin, I'm sending you your choice of Crisis Card. When you're ready, please post your choice.

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

So now I'm just the president? weird.

You still have your OPG, you can be Admiral again whenever you want! (In fact, you're the only player who still has their OPG.)

These frakking visions get worse and worse. I think I need to doublecheck my prescriptions for nasty interactions.

Believe it or not, our best hope is with a Weapons Malfunction.

I can't help with the check, so I'll be hiding under the heaviest furniture I can find just as soon as I convene a committee to investigate this whole mess. Because committees always help.

Roslin has played an Investigative Committee, and as Blue is already positive, that just leaves the Reckless interrupts. Everyone, please pass or play. You can also send me COs for the check itself. Gaeta will play first, Roslin last. You will be able to see what everyone before you has played, so you can make your play dependent on the current total by your turn.
