Do you think it's worth me extending some small measure of protection to those civvie ships you checked out, or should I just cover my own ass?

AndrewRogue · « **Reply #326 on:** April 28, 2013, 08:31:53 AM »

Extend protection to them.

Turn 36 - Current Board

The Cylons have a huge numbers advantage in the dogfights behind the Galactica, and they are finally able to land enough shots to take down Apollo and his wingman. The group of fighters near the front of the ship don't fare much better. They've managed to protect the civilians so far, but they can't hold on much longer...

Apollo is currently being scraped from the wreckage of his mauled Viper and will be moved to sickbay by the next update. (Yeah, I forgot and didn't notice until I was putting the update up.)

Play Leadership-1 Executive Order on Apollo

Lady Door · « **Reply #329 on:** April 30, 2013, 12:58:17 AM »

Thaaaaank you!

Goddamn it, though. Morale is low, people are dying and/or starving, we're SO low on fuel, and the jump is not quite in sight. What a sorry lot we are.

That rousing speech in place:

##MOVE to Weapons Control
##ACTION: Attack a raider, any old raider that might try to head for the civvie ships and is hanging around the Basestar, at the stern of Galactica

Turn 36 - Current Board

Having lost his Viper, Apollo decides to just use Galactica instead and orders the ship to fire on the Raiders behind the ship. While the shots only hit one of the enemy ships, the barrage does keep them from being able to immediately follow the civilian ships that had left the area.

d8 roll for Weapons Control was 8, one Raider is destroyed.

An investigation has been ordered to determine exactly what had happened to the water tank which recently exploded. The preliminary findings seem to indicate that it was sabotage, but nothing is certain yet...

Waiting to see Stelas's move on the check.

AndrewRogue · « **Reply #334 on:** May 01, 2013, 05:39:19 PM »

We still probably just let this check go so we can throw everything we need at the next one?

Ranmilia · « **Reply #335 on:** May 01, 2013, 09:00:31 PM »

##Play 1

I don't think it matters though. With this being Heavies+JP, the -JP crisis already gone, and only one civvie potentially at risk, it's nearly impossible for Team Cylon to pull this out. We'd need to hit -2 to a resource or some other source of -JP on Stel's turn, and there are only a handful of ways to do that, most of which are already gone. :sadrobot:

Lady Door · « **Reply #336 on:** May 01, 2013, 09:46:57 PM »

Well, Andrew, I was hoping Stelas would choose to play a card (or reveal that he wasn't) before going into that, but sure, yes, we should probably miss it.

Though managing a 6+ would be nice, just to give us a little more buffer room.

Alex may be all sad robot, but it still is possible for us to lose before we can win. </wisdom of the ages>

Stelas · « **Reply #337 on:** May 02, 2013, 09:06:10 AM »

Unfortunately, my hand doesn't really have a whole lot worth playing into this.

Lady Door · « **Reply #338 on:** May 02, 2013, 06:40:47 PM »

Are you going to play anything, then, or play zero?

Lady Door · « **Reply #339 on:** May 04, 2013, 07:24:21 AM »

... alright... so...

Anyone else agree that we should at least aim for 6+? Or should we just let this one pass and take our chances?

Yakumo · « **Reply #340 on:** May 05, 2013, 10:52:26 PM »

I've been out of town so I can't really get after you for the last couple days, but I'm putting the same deadline on this check as I did on the last one now. If there is no commentary or playing within 24 hours, all remaining players will be assumed to be playing 0.

Lady Door · « **Reply #341 on:** May 06, 2013, 12:28:37 AM »

Nitori · « **Reply #342 on:** May 06, 2013, 01:09:47 AM »

I'm cool either way, I have some alright cards. Don't know about the rest of you

AndrewRogue · « **Reply #343 on:** May 06, 2013, 03:56:54 PM »

We can try to hit 6+. Let's go for it.

Nitori · « **Reply #344 on:** May 06, 2013, 08:52:00 PM »

3 cards is p. good.

I'll just toss in one.

Works.

Sorry, that was an implicit ## Play 0. Also I would like to stop getting ill at freakishly suspicious times.

Turn 37 - Current Board

The investigations are begun but are unable to turn up any evidence implicating anyone. The official statement is that the bomb was placed long before, while the Cylon agents were still on Galactica, and that there is nothing further to worry about. This calms the civilians, for now.
