Turn 4

A sudden explosion in Apollo's Viper forces him to make an emergency landing.  The damage to the Viper was remarkably light, and Chief Tyrol had it spaceworthy again right away.  Apollo, on the other hand, was badly injured and had to be rushed to Sickbay.

That was a painful failure, and much thanks to Yakko for the pick up. Anyone done the analysis on the cards played to figure anything out?

Thanks much for the revive, Alex -- that gives me some room to help the civvie ships more!

Turn 4

Against the doctor's orders, Apollo drags himself out of bed and down to the communications room.  He warns the civilan fleet about the raiders in the air, and the fleet moves away from the enemy and down to the protection of Galactica's Vipers.

Unfortunately, on the penal ship Astral Queen, the prisoners have revolted.  They have taken hostages, and are demanding that Gaius Baltar resign from the presidency immediately.

Politics/Leadership/Tactics check, Target=11

I'm gonna do what I can here, at least - that should provide a sizable chunk. Still, one to throw cards at.

I already said it in the IRC channel but I'll say it again here that I think it's pretty fair to say Alex is a big 'ol Cylon. There's only two people who played more than one card, and I'm only Pilot/1 with no Eng/. Given I've tossed some Piloting cards in the past, I couldn't have played in that many negatives.

Turn 5 - Current Board

Accusations fly as reports of sabotage lead to distrust and accusations of Cylonhood.  Somehow, despite being the only one with an alibi for the time of the recent problems, Chief Tyrol's name keeps coming up.

That sure is a Pol/Lead/Tac 10 check right after having a Pol/Lead/Tac 11 check.

Well, uh.

I have a grand total of one card in my hand of two that'd even help, and it's dirt-low. It's also an card which I think is probably best saved in case of emergency for its effect! So I am probably sitting out of this one.
