Hold on a sec, did we just escort Civvie A home twice?
Three times. Or four times even, because you're right, you escorted the civvie in Sector 6 already.
It will take three activations to escort civvie B off - launch, move to S4, escort - and as it happens, Adama has three activations remaining. Admiral Adama, do you wish to do this? (And if so, with a Mk II or a Mk VII?)
BSG (Chief)
Adama has three activations remaining
I think he only has two? He used one to take out the Heavy and one to escort the civvie.
BSG (Apollo)
But he was trying to escort a civvie that wasn't there with the second activation, so that didn't happen.
BSG (Chief)
Oh, well, I think that should still count because that Viper totally wasted his time with an invisible ship. Those are the WORST to escort; you don't even know if you did the job right.
I didn't read my email and missed the part of the escort gone wrong so let me figure something out.
BSG (Chief)
It's terrible. You shouldn't launch any Vipers at all.
BSG
Adama has chosen to escort civilian ship B off the board, which will take up his remaining three viper activations. Admiral, I still need to know whether you wish to use a Mk II or Mk VII. Apparently it's a secret; but the people have a right to know! Apollo's crisis card is:
Informing the Public
Current Player's Choice
Apollo, when you're ready, please post your choice.
BSG (Adama)
If I pick Option 1 can people help?
BSG (Apollo)
Hm. Well, I cant do much to affect the out come of either option. How do the rest of you feel about them?
Eta: it's my turn, Admiral, I XOd you but it's still my crisis.
