Okay, so while I was looking at the board to figure out which sector to nuke (bad that we have the choice: basestar with 2 raiders for collateral damage imperiling the civvie, or basestar with 7 raiders, 3 of which could be up for collateral damage) I realized that with the nuke being our last...
Well, should I wait until my turn, when I could use my OPG to decide the dice roll, to use the nuke? Unfortunately that would leave the civvie exposed this turn, as I could probably only shoot at the two raiders in my space. I'm sorry, I should have thought of this before the XO. What do you guys think?

Your nuke will not harm the civvie, I don't think.
BSG
I mean, the raiders were imperiling the civvie. Dang runon sentences.

Dang runon sentences will also not harm the civvie.

Low as we are on resources, perhaps it is wiser to wait and use the nuke with your OPG.

Ah, I see. Well, if you wait, maybe the Raiders will activate and destroy that civvie for you, making your choice that much easier. Won't that be nice?
BSG
Okay,
I do not move.
Action 1:
I play my Star Player
ability to exchange my two brown cards for red.
Action 2:
I shoot
at the first Raider I see.

OH SNAP. Smooth move, hotshot.

A cunning plan indeed, but it is not without its risks. Because Anders has just discarded Treachery (BL-1 and BYC-1), he has left Galactica (or is it Pegasus?) open to
Sabotage.
Will either of the Cylons play a Sabotage? If they do, it is Cally's choice (as current player) as to which ship gets hit. Cally, you can send me COs to damage either Galactica or Pegasus (if a Sabotage is played).
