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

All right! Anyone have any thoughts on opening gambit? I figure launching and shooting at raiders is always fun, but if I draw an XO could we put it to good use?

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

Starbuck, you should launch for sure to take advantage of your ability. You can still use an XO. Am I in Comms? I could do Comms things.

Hm, it seems that Comms would involve moving the civvies toward the Raiders, even though they'd be protected. Still, the RSVs are there to stop the Raiders from advancing.

BSG (Starbuck the Bold)
Well, the question is moot as I didn't draw an XO. I'm clarifying exactly how awesome a pilot I can be right now, once the gods get back to me I'll demonstrate my mad skills.
Laga - Jan 13, 2012 6:03:19 pm PST #14706 of 26134
You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
BSG (Tigh)
Woo look at all those resources!

BSG (Starbuck, with a cigar, in the Hangar Deck)
OK, let's start with a bang! Since I am already in the Hangar Deck I'll use this CS-4 to launch in Sector 6 instead moving. For my bonus action I'll use this FT-2 to move to Sector 1 and fire on a raider.
For my action, I'll use this handy MF-3 to continue firing on the raiders until they are all gone or I run out of shots whichever comes first.
Pass on interrupts on these shots on raiders.

This sequence of cards allows Starbuck five shots at the raiders! Ldet's see if she deserves her reputation:
Die roll 1: 4. Hit!
Die roll 2: 6. Hit!
Die roll 3: 1. Miss.
Die roll 4: 8. Hit!
All the raiders have been destroyed! Starbuck has one shot remaining, and one target - the basestar. Starbuck, do you wish to fire upon the mother ship?
