Hmmm. Given the RSVs are at a serious disadvantage here, maybe I should get everybody under Starbuck? I think it's OK to say: We want to protect both these ships. On the other hand, that puts them in with the raiders too.....
Hey, bt? Does the minus to the RSV rolls only affect the attack roll? Does it affect anything when the raiders attack RSVs?
BSG (Gaeta)
Civvie F is actually very well protected, and, now that I think about it, we should have been looking at one of Starbuck's charges. Civvie E could potentially be a decoy to lure the 6 Raiders down to Sector 2 instead of letting them hit Sector 6, but Sector 6 has some protection.
What's about to happen to Sector 4 is that in the next Raider activation, Starbuck could possibly be toast unless she can Run Interference, and then the other Raiders move in, and suddenly she's facing 9 Raiders and every civvie there is probably dead. So that is not a good place to be right now.

No, they're no easier to hit than normal. They're just not as effective on offense.
BSG(Chief-in-Decision)
Yeah, I thought so.
Elminster, move to Sector 4, then Sector 5. Faerun, hold your position.
BSG (Gaeta)
You can't do that. You can only move each one one position.
BSG
Gaeta is correct, you can't move either ship more than one sector.
BSG
Fine.
Elminster, Move to Sector 4. Faerun, hold your position.
Repeating: we want to protect both those ships.
BSG
Civvie E joins Starbuck in Sector 4. They may not be the only ones in need of rescuing. Looks like Hot Dog may have left a little surprise for Gaeta. Gaeta's crisis card is:
Rescue Mission (A)
Admiral's Choice
He may be stranded, but he still holds Gaeta's fate in his hands. Admiral Helo, when you're ready, pleas post your choice.

I don't want to go to Sickbay! You don't want me in Sickbay; I have basestars to be firing on.
