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

Oof!

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

BSG (Tory Poppins)

So I think the options are to move the Vipers in Sector 5 in Sector 4 to cover the civvies, move the Viper in Sector 4 to Sector 2 to keep Scar busy (the first option is probably better because Scar will get to Sector 4 in one activation anyway, and three Vipers will keep him busier than one standing in his way), or XO Dee to get rid of that Centurion. Or I can see if the Quorum will let me authorize brutal force.

BSG (Star...you know I should have thought through the puns I could make with this name...buck)

All right! There's Scar! Hi, Scar!

Shut it, Scarbuck.

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

BSG (Ca n't think of anything si lly)

So glad we didn't already have a bunch of metal in the sky when Scar showed up.

I had a feeling we'd really regret having all that metal in the sky.

I can XO, but I'm really not sure who I trust to shoot an XO over to.

BSG (Cally)

With an XO I could fire on Scar twice. I know you don't trust me but if I took your XO and did what I said that would help.

BSG (Starbuck)

You could XO me! Oh, right, shut it. Shutting it now. (For the moment.)

I trust me! But Cally has a better shot of doing something useful. I don't know how Main Batteries work on Scar, though. Does she still have to roll a natural 7+? I guess it's better than sending a Raider to do it.

The advantage of sending Vipers to protect the civvies is that I have a bad feeling about what Starbuck will do on her turn, and if she puts more ships on the board, it would be good to have the civvies protected. Then again, it would also be good not to have Scar around.

Or a Centurion.

Choices, choices.

BSG (Helena)

I'm also thinking about launching more of the RSVs so that we have more in the air in case things get even crazier out here.

I could launch two more RSVs into Sector 5 and then move one into the sector with the civvies for more protection.
