BATTLESTAR GALACTICA PLAY-BY-FORUM--SESSION 1

## STARBUCK (henceforth, KARA FOUR) discards down to three cards!
## KARA FOUR is moved to RESURRECTION SHIP!




CRISIS STEP!


As though pawns had been activated in an elaborate endgame, an alert sounded just as the medical personnel had tended to Tigh and taken his still bleeding and unconcious body to sickbay. A ship of unknown designation--appearing civilian--suddenly broke for Galactica and its battered wings of fighters.

They weren't responding to hails, but it was not certain if it was due to the communications disruptions or something much more sinister.

Lee Adama was next in line for command of the bridge in Tigh's absence, but he was currently fighting for his life, and the lives of those in the fleet.

There was no time to think, only to act.




CRISIS CARD REVEALED:

Unidentified Ship
Difficulty : 10
Tactics, Piloting

Raiders Launch, No Jump Prep Icon

Pass: No Effect
Fail: -1 Population




You guys know the drill. Pre-load stuff needs to be gotten in there first, like Investigative Committee. If you'd like to pre-load a Declare Emergency in case the check fails by 2 or less, please PM that to me in advance.

Otherwise, it is up to KARA FOUR (DR MABUSE) to get the skill check officially started with either CARD PLAY or PASS.

Holy Moly! I thought the big breaks with travel and such were going to slow this game down...but now it just cranked up yet another step! I thought getting 2 new step parents was exciting enough, but to now add a Cylon Sister is icing on the cake!!!
Welcome to the family Kara Four! ;)

"Helo 3 and Kara 4 - we need you to show your military leadership skills and organise our raiders to 'capture' as many of the civilian ships as you can, if we lower the human population enough it will probably make the misguided human leadership think carefully about jumping early and maybe losing even more of their 'last seeds of humanity'."

"Eventually they will see that our planned destiny is the only path to follow.

## 1 Super-Crisis Card is dealt to DR MABUSE (Kara Four). Sorry gents, piece of leftover business.




CRISIS RESOLUTION!


POSITIVE:

2 - Evasive Maneuver

TOTAL: 2



NEGATIVE:

1 - Repair

TOTAL: 1



2 - 1 = 1 FAILURE!




It was a perfect storm.

With the comm damaged, with all communications in flux, and with the chaos surrounding them...it probably couldn't have happened any other way.

In the absence of Tigh's leadership...faced with a unidentified ship on what appeared to be a collision course...the order was given to open fire with Galactica's batteries.

As the cannons began firing...as those deadly projectiles aimed for their new home...a squawking voice came over the comm...

"....fire! Repeat! Galactica, do NOT open fire! We..."

But it was too late. The explosion tore through the darkness of space, and it was immediately clear what had happened.




## POPULATION is lowered by one -- now at 11/12.





ACTIVATE CYLON SHIPS

## Raider is launched into ALPHA sector
## Raider is launched into ALPHA sector
