BSG (Kat)
Well, I made a mistake, but that mistake can be turned into a tactical advantage if I can move into Sector 2 and get shot at. I don't know if Apollo has anything up his sleeve, but we're going to have a big problem if those Raiders make it to Sector 4. Maybe Main Batteries? Or potshots at basestars?

Tory: Press Room; 7 cards
I show I have (6) cards. I used one to XO Kat out of sickbay.

Your records are correct. I've amended the summary.
BSG (Gaeta)
So sorry for the delay.
I've got an XO just waiting to be used. Apollo is an option, but it's risky because that gives two turns back to back and we don't know who's a toaster at this point. I could also go with Kat, and let her do some damage. Any thoughts?
BSG (president)
Another option would be weapons or nukes to clear the air of some basestars.
2 turns in a row would be risky.
BSG (Apollo)
Kat could be a toaster! Think about how much stuff I could shoot down if I had 2 turns.
BSG (Kat Is Not a Toaster!)
Think about how much stuff I could shoot down if I had 2 turns.
Not a lot? You have to use up a whole XO just to get to the Raiders, who could then just send you to Sickbay. Unless you've got some mad Piloting skillz up your sleeve.
At least I could shoot at one Raider. But with that many Raiders, I think Main Batteries is a better option. Or double-whammy on Weapons Control. I'd advise against nukes, since we'll want to save them for New Caprica. It's early yet.
BSG(Papa Gon Speech)
Out of self-interest, I'll suggest Weapons Control also.
