We clearly have no choice, with a basestar and three raiders threatening the Galactica.

We will deploy one of our precious nukes to destroy the basestar.

War criminal.
The medievals were only too right in taking nolo episcopari as the best reason a man could give to others for making him a bishop. Give me a king whose chief interest in life is stamps, railways, or race-horses; and who has the power to sack his Vizier (or whatever you care to call him) if he does not like the cut of his trousers.

Government is an abstract noun meaning the art and process of governing and it should be an offence to write it with a capital G or so as to refer to people.

Delirium

Come writers and critics who prophesize with your pen, and keep your eyes wide the chance won't come again; but don't speak too soon for the wheel's still in spin, and there's no telling who that it's naming. For the loser now will be later to win, cause the times they are a-changin'. -- B Dylan

Which character is Edward James Olmos?
The Nuke man


I think nukes this fast are a little bit hasty but so long as the other is saved for an emergency it should be fine.  We just need to get Starbuck out here to watch the civvies and the other side of Galactica.

Of course, wasting a nuke this early could also mean that Adama is a cylon.  <_<

How kind of you to inform the presidency.

Alright, the Admiral moves to Communications to keep his hand on the fleet's pulse, and from there orders the launch of one of the two nuclear warheads, targeting the basestar.

The rocket flies and....

Request:  8-sided die x 1

3


Destroys the basestar! But the radius of the blast was not enough to eliminate the 3 Raiders as well.

Now comes the Crisis Step:

A distress call has been received from 3 civilian ships, they are under attack from Cylons. The Admiral must make a choice:

lose 2 population points

OR

-1 morale. Place 1 basestar and 3 raiders in front of Galactica and 3 civilian ships behind it.

So -2 population or -1 morale and the enemy fleet?  If that is the choice I think we need to consider the damage of going back and fighting and possibly losing people anyways.  What do you people think?
