Right. Piano. Because that's what we used to kill that big demon that one time. No, wait. That was a rocket launcher.

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 just realised too, I'd forgotten to mention: this is Adama's turn, so all 1s count positive regardless of colour.

Adama plays two cards as well. Let's see the results:

Consolidate Power 1
Consolidate Power 1
Consolidate Power 2
Consolidate Power 2
Executive Order 1
Executive Order 1
Executive Order 2
Launch Scout 1
Repair 1
Evasive Manoeuvre 2
Special Destiny 2

Tally: 12 - 4 = 8. Pass (just). And that's a rousing no effect for you guys.

Next, the raiders activate. The RSVs in Sector 5 are under fire once more:

Raider 1: 5. RSV damaged!
Raider 2: 2. Miss. Raider 3: 6. RSV damaged!

That leaves raider 4 free to pursue his dreams of becoming a feng shui consultant to the stars, and civvie B.

That concludes Adama's turn. Boomer has opted to draw Red and Brown. Boomer, when you're ready, please post your move and action.

Hmmm.....do I go for the sure thing or the target-rich environment?

Hey, bt - what does a raider activation do if there are no Vipers OR civvies in the air?

If there are no civvies, and no vipers in their sector, they fire on Galactica (whether or not there are vipers elsewhere on the board). They hit on an 8. As current player, it would be your choice whether damage is assigned to Galactica or Pegasus.

Hah. I discard HW-3 to move to the Cylon Fleet and GO, RAIDERS, GO, starting with the lonely guy in Sector 4.

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

BSG (Ellen with the Thing)

WATCH OUT CIVVIE B! MOVE MOVE MOVE!

Is this thing on? IS THIS THING ON??

(If those other Raiders roll six eights...that would just be silly.)

BSG

Boomer, now divested of all human weakness, orders the assault. Civilian ship B is destroyed, revealing:

Civvie B: 1 Population

Population falls to 1. The seven raiders in Sector 5 fire directly on Galactica!

Raider 1: 1. Miss.
Raider 2: 4. Miss.
Raider 3: 8. Hit!
Raider 4: 6. Miss.
Raider 5: 2. Miss.
Raider 6: 2. Miss.
Raider 7: 4. Miss.

Boomer, does the hit get assigned to Galactica or Pegasus?

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

Pegasus can indeed, and takes it right in the Engine Room.

That concludes Boomer's turn. Ellen's cards are going out. Ellen, when you're ready, please post your move and action.
