BSG What I e-mailed billytea is kind of what was mentioned already, and what I wanted to do when I first launched, so it's *not* a "I'm going to roll a dexterity check and turn off the artificial gravity while jumping through the air with my dagger to hit the airlock lock to decompress the chamber so the toaster float away" kind of thing. It's just a "I can't recall exactly what the card says, but I want to go in all guns blazing" thing. Damn it, I want to fry some toasters! A girl needs some action! (why is it I never hear that directed at me).

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

Boomer's proposed course of action is... legal!
Move to Sector 1
Play Red-3: Maximum Firepower to attack the basestar 4 times.
Boomer will hit on a roll of 8. There is 1 possible interrupt, Strategic Planning. We will pause for a moment to see if anyone wants to play it for any of your attacks. (Roslin and Baltar haven't drawn purple cards, so cannot play an interrupt here.)

I concur with this too.
The card says you can move and take an action, or you can stay where you are and take 2 actions.
If you have the Action card that lets you attack 4 times, you can move into Sector 1 and play that card as your action, and then roll the die 4 times to hit the basestar. Any hit of 8 or greater will damage it, and there are 3 more damages it can take (knock out weapons, general damage 1, general damage 2).
ETA: OK, billytea's way ahead of me on that.
I do not interrupt, as I'm all about concurring with Boomer's proposed action.

Hold on a sec. The XO gives 2 actions, one can be a move. The card gives me two actions. So the XO puts me in sector one. The other XO item is playing the card. The card gives me (2) actions? So one is the 4 attacks, then can I attack AGAIN (so 5 attacks)? Or is the 4 attacks both actions? [what? gun happy? Me? Not often a Raptor pilot gets a gunship! Take that Starbuck!)

The XO allows you either Move + Action, or 2 Actions. You're doing move + action. The Maximum Firepower allows you to use your one action to attack 4 times.
PS: Do you intend to play an interrupt for any of your attacks?

Um, do I do the rolls, or do you BillyTea? I should be home in about an hour if I do the rolls. Or I can use the dice app on my iPhone if you want t /geek

I do the rolls. Which, having received interrupts, I will now do:
Attack 1:
1. Miss.
Attack 2:
6. Miss.
Attack 3:
5. Miss.
Attack 4:
2. Miss.
Let the record show that Boomer couldn't hit the side of a barn basestar.
Next up: crisis!
