I can't help on this one. Though even if we fail Food is probably more valuable to us than Fuel at this point.
Nothing.
I would say fuel is more valuable. We don't know what kinds of jumps we have ahead of us, and food is more easily replenished.
Probably should have noticed both our tacticians are out of cards before committing to this...its going to be a close call with the former admiral working against us, so hope for some help from the DD.
The pilots sent out to scout for water never return. Maybe they found Earth and it was so nice they never wanted to leave! In any case, the fleet is out some fuel and a raptor.
Mr. President, norale can be regained through the Quorum, while population is extremely rare (I can only think of one crisis that allows you to regain population).
I'm pretty sure this is the only +population card, yes. You'd support option A then, Apollo?
I was going about it based on the fact that given a chance to play and look through the Quorum deck (hopefully with an SP, as our current place in the turn order is about to load us up with tactics cards) I can regain the morale hit quite easily, negating this entire crisis, whereas its a lot harder to get back the one food and fuel it would take to increase population, which is still fairly high.
I do feel like we have an obligation to the survivors on Caprica, but this is the fate of the human race we're talking about. If it's not worth the risk...
I tend to agree with the Captain on this. This fleet isn't getting any bigger unless we do something about it, and while our food and fuel supplies aren't what they were when we started this journey, they certainly aren't low. I recommend sending the rescue party.
Ever the C-Bucks fan, President Billy decides to send a rescue mission back to Caprica to bring back one Mr. Samuel T. Anders. And some other folks, I guess. (-1 fuel, -1 food, +1 population, Jump Prep advances. Updating the board.)
Oh man. The Lords of Kobol are not hearing your prayers, apparently. -1 Raptor, since no one had any contingencies in place for Strategic Planning on this kind of roll.

Logic....just what I would expect from a robot.

(Updating the board... Starbuck has already sent me her orders, so I'll go ahead and incorporate those into the image.)
Starbuck takes Leadership for her multi-skill, then launches in a Viper at 7 o'clock and moves to 9 o'clock.
With some downtime away from the Cylons, the President has a chance to consider a plan that Starbuck proposed.

Fuel isn't so much an issue here as food is starting to become, especially if we draw more Food / Water shortages.
Dee, Tigh, if you have nothing pressing an XO or two would allow me to start looking for food rationing cards.
(PM'ing hand update. I think I also forgot to PM Starbuck's hand, so that should be on its way now.)
Not to say we shouldn't scout- just not every turn.
