We can't lose all of our people. Damnit.

##Choose -1 Morale, plus that stuff about a bunch of ships

Turn 27 - Current Board

Admiral Adama decides to throw the Galactica into danger to protect the rest of the fleet. Several more ships, both friend and foe, are now engaged in the battle.

Lady Door chose -1 Morale and adding raiders/civilian ships to the board. After the crisis, Raiders activate and move, and Jump Prep is increased.

Ah, whoops, sorry. Jetlag and returning to work all at once. (there was no way my workplace was going to give me more than a solid month off)

Activate Caprica for normal crises

Stelas · « **Reply #229 on:** March 08, 2013, 09:38:52 AM »

No, wait, don't do that. Draw Engineering, Tactics and then I'll see.

I don't think it's enough of a party yet.

1: Activate Basestars
2: Setup: 1 Basestar(won't be placed, component limit), 1 Heavy Raider, 7 Raiders, 2 Vipers, and 3 Civilian Ships

Turn 28 - Current Board

Alarms blare as even more Cylon ships approach the fleet's location. The Galactica has only just finished it's own FTL calcluations and there's no guarantee that the civilian ships are ready to jump. Admiral Adama must decide whether to take that risk or hope they can protect the fleet long enough for everyone to jump safely...

The Basestar attack rolls were both 1. No damage to Galactica. 7 Raiders, 1 Heavy Raider, 3 Civilian Ships, and 2 Vipers are added to the game board.

Well, damnit, no good options here.

##Draw 2 Politics

##Move to FTL Control
##Attempt to jump

Better to risk the population. I don't have any useful cards here, but if someone does, now would be a good time to mention it.

Yakumo · « **Reply #234 on:** March 12, 2013, 02:29:10 AM »

Since it had been over 24 hours since the jump action was declared and nobody mentioned playing anything, I made the roll. The d8 roll for the jump was 8, no population is lost. Destinations are being sent to the Admiral.

Lady Door · « **Reply #235 on:** March 12, 2013, 05:59:24 AM »

By the way, I chose to discard a Piloting 1-Evasive Maneuvers in order to get from my Viper to inside Galactica so I could trigger the jump.

Yakumo · « **Reply #236 on:** March 12, 2013, 08:00:50 PM »

Turn 28 - Current Board

The FTL jump is made mostly without incident, but the jump landed in an asteroid field and one of the civilian ships jumps directly into an asteroid, destroying it instantly with all aboard lost.

Lady Door chose Asteroid Field as the destination. Distance 3. Lose 2 Fuel. Then draw 1 Civilian ship and destroy it, losing the resources on the back. The civilian ship had 1 Population.

Admiral Adama finds himself wondering just what exactly President Baltar has been up to, hiding out on Colonial One for the entire voyage. After all, who has been handling the jumps and keeping the civilians safe? Certainly not Baltar. The thought of just relieving Baltar of his position crosses his mind...

Time to survive. Any thoughts from the peanut gallery?

Pick -1 Fuel!

AndrewRogue · « **Reply #239 on:** March 13, 2013, 03:10:49 PM »

My inclination is to say the morale? I believe we still have to deal with population loss on the last jump, so we need a bit of room to shield it. But mmm. Nitori has been being a decent president.

Do you have any useful quorum in the forseeable future, prezzy?

Lady Door · « **Reply #240 on:** March 14, 2013, 09:31:33 PM »

For what it's worth, I'm okay with the downside to the -1 Pop. I just don't want to lose anymore population. We're screwed if we bottom out in any of the categories, though, right? So hell if I know what our "safest" option is. Especially since this crisis won't even advance our jump prep.

Mmph.

Waiting a little bit longer to hear from others, then I'll post a decision.

Nitori · « **Reply #241 on:** March 14, 2013, 10:56:36 PM »

Given my quorum hand we'll be able to live longer losing morale than population

Lady Door · « **Reply #242 on:** March 15, 2013, 12:48:09 AM »

What happens when I get promoted to President?

Yakumo · « **Reply #243 on:** March 15, 2013, 01:16:01 AM »

Basically, you get the title and the Quorum cards that Nitori has, and you start making the decisions on crisis cards that say President's Choice.

Lady Door · « **Reply #244 on:** March 15, 2013, 11:49:34 PM »

Okiedokie then. Not like we have a whole lot of options here...

##CHOOSE -1 Morale

Yakumo · « **Reply #245 on:** March 16, 2013, 02:40:53 AM »

Turn 29 - Current Board

Admiral Adama decides that Martial Law is indeed necessary, and assumes the duties of the President along with the Admiral's duties. The civilian population of the fleet does not agree with this development, but aside from some minor grumbling there are no immediate problems from them.

Sir Alex has preloaded drawing Piloting and Politics, and activating Caprica for crisis cards.
