I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Hm, the mechanics of Starbuck's maneuvering have me mildly confused. Fortunately, that is a state I am used to functioning in so I will have another drink and forge on to fire on the basestar in Sector 1.

Pass on interrupts.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

I don't have either of the cards that let me attack the crap out of 7 Raiders, so I feel this is a better use of getting extra actions than just firing three times individually. I've already missed once, after all.

It's the Full Throttle without moving, that's just weird. You're the hotshot pilot, though.

No, it's totally weird, and I wanted to save that for when I could actually use it to move. I was hoping the CS/XO combo was legal, but apparently not. So I used the FT to get one extra shot at a Raider, which I blew. Too much pressure, alas. In any case, this is the Sector I'm probably stuck in for the foreseeable future anyway. Looooot of Raiders in this Sector.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

BSG

I wish there was a way you and me could swap sectors, Starbuck. I've half a mind to crash this bird into a basestar.

And I wish you weren't right after me so I could safely XO you to get a lot of Raiders down in one turn.

I'm wary of using our OPGs this early in the game, though! I could have used mine to bury this attack, but we may need it at a more dire time. I'm hoping we can make it through this (I really wish I'd gotten better attack cards, but instead I got some good defense ones).

It's true. The other half of my mind is saying it's way too early.

It also feels way too early to use a nuke to clear out Sector 3 (I would gladly get sent to Sickbay if we destroyed all those damn Raiders), but the fact that we could potentially build another one is kinda neat and may change how we use them.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

BSG

I have COs o pass on SPs from everyone now. Tigh fires at the basestar in Sector 1:

Die roll = 1. Miss.

Admiral, you have a second action. What would you like to do?
