Boomer, you know the drill. You have received an XO. You may either move and take an action, or not move and take two actions.When you're ready, please post your orders.

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

BSG (Boom Boomer)

I stay put and Punch Jens right into next week!

Everyone passes on interrupts. Boomer takes the swing:

Die roll: 8. Hit! Jens, alas, is no more. Boomer, when you're ready, please post your second action.

BSG (Roslincredulous)

YES! GO BOOMER! Um, any Scouts? Can we even use Scouts anymore? We don't have Raptors around. Can you bury anything with an OF activation or that is terrible? Even if it has a jump prep, we can't keep getting OF activations, especially because the Cylons can do it too and will just keep marching them along. We have to start prepping ships.

And oh yeah, I get to choose between Crises! Whew.

WAIT BOOMER DID YOU DO YOUR RECON? RECON RECON RECON.

BSG (Boomer)

There doesn't seem to be anything else I can do. I glare menacingly at anyone that looks vaguely metalic.

I did reconnoiter and elected to leave a very scary crisis on top because it has a jump icon.
