OK, this is about to get VERY IMPORTANT, so I want to clarify:

It says we can take an action to evac a ship, then move to any location on Galactica if we do. Does that include the first action of an XO? If I XO Tory, can she use her first action to evac, then move to say, Comms, and activate it with her second action?

That would be a legitimate order. Tory would still have an action left after the evac/move, and can use it to activate her current location, which would now be Comms.

The only restriction to bear in mind is that if you move as a result of evacuating a ship, you can only move to Galactica, not Pegasus. (If you just move via your Movement Phase, you can go to either ship, but it costs one skill card.)

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir

I'm thinking we gotta do something about all these boarding party/occupation forces. Plus. Prep ships for evac. We got 3 raider activations before those guys hurt civvies. I think in triage, comms is a lower priority, no? Please correct me if I'm wrong.

BSG(Adamarama)

We don't want to head for Galactica quite yet, no. And I think I'd rather send Apollo first, since he can launch if need be. In fact, either of the other two can XO him, he can evac a ship, then activate the Armory on his other action, so the Boarding Party can take a back seat for now....

Hey, bt, on the next OA activation are all four units going to move together?

If you get a crisis card with an OF activation, all Occ forces move together. If a Cylon activates the O.A., only one Occ force moves. (Then they place a new one too, but there aren't any new ones left. They're all on the board now.)

OK, so they can't force-march the whole thing. In that case...

I will boldly stay right here to be XO'd for punchination when the Zerg Rush gets here, and XO-1 Tory.

Madame Pres, I recommend 2 preps, since evacs will be happening on their own, and we need to save enough ships down here to get the three of us off this rock.

Two more ships are prepped, while Adama stays behind to punch things. He needs to stay in practicefor punching things; maybe he should warm up on that building over there. Adama's crisis card is:

Attack on the Power Plant
President's Choice

President Foster, when you're ready, please post your choice.
