I'm helping out on this one too.

I can help a bit.
But I think the Reckless was a mistake. If there's a BYC, six raiders will move into Sector 5. Then the crisis activation, and the raiders will attack. With 2 RSVs and Starbuck, we could still lose some civvies before jumping.

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

No, we won't. That's why I checked with Starbuck first. Starbuck will Run Interference on the first 4 Raiders, and there are enough Vipers to shield against the other 2. If we get Broadcast Location, though, we will lose a civvie, but I'm okay with that, given what I know of what's already out in space.
Check is now down to 8. Let's not waste a shitload of cards.

I can help a little. CO's are in.

We're shooting for 10, not 8, right?
I've been studying the raider situation carefully, I'm pretty sure we will be okay in the event of BYC turning up.

Oops. Yeah, 10. I usually assume a -6 from Destiny to be safe, so 16 total should be enough.

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

Political Prowess 6
Executive Order 1
Executive Order 1

Evasive Maneouvre 2
Calculations 5
Tally: 21 - 7 = 14. Pass! You didn't even need the JR, though with no Treachery in the play, it didn't hurt either.
Next, the raiders activate. There's only one piece of action that matters, their attack on the RSV in Sector 6:
Raider 1: 7. Viper damaged!
The others all move about, but to no avail, as the fleet jumps! Destinations being sent to the Admiral. Admiral Tigh, when you're ready, please post your choice.

Nice job, everyone! A bit of an overplay after all, but not bad.
