Gonna allow a brief pause to see if anyone would like to play a Strat Plan, should they have one. (If you do have one but want to hold onto it, PM me a CO)

By CO, Starbuck plays TAC 3 - Strategic Planning on the first shot.

1d8+2 = 4 Miss!
1d8 + 0 = 7 HIT! One Heavy Raider Destroyed!

Baltar, you have one action remaining. (Same deal as before regarding Strat Plans and COs, should Maahk choose to attack the Heavy Raiders again.)

Baltar activates Command twice again. By CO, Zarek plays TAC 3: Strat Plan on the second shot.

1d8 + 0 = 1 Miss!
1d8 + 2 = 7 Hit! Heavy Raider in 5 Destroyed!

Inspired by the leadership of both their Admiral and President, some brave pilots shoot down some Cylon boarding parties moments before they were in range of impact with the Basestar. Tactical advice Tom Zarek phoned into Baltar contributed to this victory.

With the fleet's officers focused heavily on the situation on DRADIS, security aboard Galactica has become slack, especially around the Battlestar's CIC...


Crisis!

Security Breach - 6 LEA TAC:

Pass: No Effect;
Fail: -1 Morale, and all characters in the "Command" location are sent to "Sickbay."

Launch Raiders (no Jump).

OhHiMaahk (Baltar) is currently in Command. Everyone, play in or pass.

This isn't a hard crisis to pass and I think we'd probably lose more skill cards total by me starting in sick bay?

That being said I can't help a whole lot.

Not sure, it's an SA/PBP rule. I...I guess it's to simulate the fact that on a table the players won't have perfect memories and couldn't, say, bring in the exact results of a Skill Check done 5 rounds ago to accuse someone of being a Cylon, for example.

TAC 1 - Launch Scout
TAC 1 - Launch Scout
TAC 2 - Launch Scout
TAC 2 - Launch Scout
ENG 2 - Repair

Total: 9 PASS, No Effect!
Launch Raiders: Raiders are launched from each Basestar.

With the possibility of an internal threat as well as the external danger, a squad of handpicked marines is posted to protect Galactica's bridge, ready to protect the President and command crew should any mishaps occur. For the time being, at least, their fears are unfounded...

Turn 2.2: Adama (Klades) is the Current Player.

Adama (Klades) draws 3 LEA, 2 TAC and reshuffles the LEA deck.

Top Crisis Card moved to the bottom of the deck.

Despite being currently locked up in the brig of his own Battlestar, the former Admiral Adama still holds influence among certain factions of the crew. From his cell, he manages to contact a Raptor crew. Using the confusion of the ongoing pursuit, the Raptor jumps out of the system and scouts for incoming threats, before returning to Adama with information about their recon...

Adama is in the Brig, no Crisis.

Turn 2.3: President Baltar (OhHiMaahk) is the Current Player.

President Baltar (OhHiMaahk) draws 2 POL, 1 LEA, 1 ENG.

Under the orders of the President, Galactica's Vipers scramble towards the cloud of Raiders, ready to hold off the inevitable Cylon onslaught. Although Starbuck appreciates the cover, she starts to worry about Baltar's increased authority aboard the Battlestar. Her crew think the same, and she recieves several requests from her officers that she should seize power from the civilian fleet. With the military situation so vital, perhaps this is no time for the red tape that comes with politics? However, tensions are mounting and if Starbuck makes the wrong decision, infighting will become a very real possibility...

Crisis!

Declare Martial Law : Admiral Chooses: -1 Morale and the Admiral receives the President Title.

OR

-1 Population and the Admiral discards 2 Skill Cards

Activate Basestars (no Jump).

Starbuck discards, Population - 1!

Basestars Attack! 1d8 = 5 HIT Fuel Token Damaged! 1d8 = 6 HIT Food Token Damaged!

Starbuck has no time for politics as she is too focused leading the Viper squadrons in their defense of the fleet. She leaves the situation out of her hands for now. Some time later, she hears reports of riots aboard the civilian fleet in support of Baltar, with the protesters demanding that all military authority be given to the president. Before the revolt can spread throughout the fleet, Starbuck sends the marines in to diffuse the rioting. Although the protests are quelled, there are casualties on both sides.

Just as this is happening, the Basestars enter range of Galactica and open fire. A salvo of missiles barrage into the hull of the old Battlestar, breaching several key bulkheads. Soon, countless gallons of both Tylium and fresh water are jettisonned out into space through leaks in tanks and the hull, and although Tyrol and his deckhands are eventually able to bring it under control, a significant portion of the fleet's fuel reserves and water supplies are lost...


Turn 2.4: Zarek (Fat Samurai) is the Current Player.

Zarek (Fat Samurai) draws 2 LEA, 2 POL, 1 TAC.

With the fleet losing Tylium following the rupture of Galactica's tanks, concerns are raised whether or not a jump large enough to evade the Cylons is possible without refueling first. Fortunately, a collection of explorers and scientists have theorised that there could be several uncharted moons and planets in the nearby systems with abudent supplies of raw Tylium, ready to be mined and converted into starship fuel. It is an ambitious project and will require significant manpower and resources...assets which may be more useful in the current battle against the Cylons. As the President and Admiral are unavailable, the scientists go to the office of Tom Zarek, whose criminal connections may be able to provide them with raptors and willing volunteers...

Scouting for Fuel - 12 TAC PIL:
Current Player Chooses:

Pass: +1 Fuel;
Fail: -1 Fuel and destroy 1 Raptor.

OR Roll a die. If 4 or lower, -1 Fuel.

Passing this would be nice considering we just lost a fuel, but 12 TAC/PIL might be hard considering what we've seen out of destiny. I can help a little bit if we go for it.
