I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

That does sound like a good time, but I am not doing well keeping up with e-mail as it is. I'd better stick to in-thread kibitzing.

Been a while since I've been a pilot. Looks like I should launch out there and take care of some raiders. Seem good to everyone?

Yes please! We need some defense out there!
Oh, and does this mean we get to see the first NPC in action?

Oh, crap, right, Starbuck is going to have to have a little chat with Kat before taking off. I...I hope Kat is feeling good today.

Okay, since I'm the first one up on this and it's the first time with the whole NPC thing, and I've been sitting out a few rounds and have very rarely played pilots, let's walk through this.
I'm planning to launch in a Viper, I think I can launch into Sector 4, is that correct, and do folks think that is a prudent plan. How does the NPC play into this? If I'm out in a Viper does Kat come into play, or is it only if I'm still in the Hangar at the end of this turn?

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

You encounter an NPC if you're in the same location at the end of your Movement Phase. Launching occurs as your Action; so if you want to launch, you need to be on the Hangar Deck at the end of your Movement, and will therefore encounter Kat.
When you launch, you can launch into either Sector 5 or Sector 6. You get a bonus action too, which you can use to move from Sector 5 to Sector 4 (or instead to scout, XO someone, make piu piu noises at the RSV, as your fancy moves you.

I can XO someone as my bonus action, can anyone make solid use of this, or should I just do the hop to Sector 4?
Either way I'm launching in my viper into Sector 5, so I guess we'll find out shortly how things worked out with Kat.

It's not super crucial at this time, but if you have an xo, I'd love a jump start getting to Air Force One, so I can start working the Quorum. Sitting here in Research Lab is useless. However, getting you to the civvies side, and/or moving a RSV as well with the civvies, would be nice.
