You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

BSG (Kat a tat tat)

I will move to Sector 4 and play Launch Reserves 5 to add two RSVs to Sector 4

I can also activate those vipers. Trying to decide if I want to move one to Sector 5, move one to Sector 3? thoughts?

BSG (Kat)

Upon further reflection, I will keep one RSV at my side and request the other fly into teh face of danger, aka Sector 3.

The raiders have a target! And they'll get a go at it too. Stop me if youve heard this one: actually, don'[t stop me, I'm running this thing. Kat's crisis is:

Food Shortage (D)
President's Choice

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

BSG (Kat)

I can afford to lose some cards but we're also not terribly short on food.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

BSG (Romo)

I don't have very many cards to begin with, so we'll go with Option 1.

BSG

The choice is made; Food falls by 2. Next, the raiders activate. Sector 6 is now looking pretty crowded. The raiders in Sector 3 find their way barred by a lone RSv, and open fire:

Raider 1: 2. Miss.
Raider 2: 4. Miss.
Raider 3: 7. Viper damaged!
But Kat plays an Evasive Manoeuvre 1:

Raider 3a: 2. Miss.

Finally, the jump track advances. that concludes Kat's turn. Chief's cards are going out. Chief, when you're ready, please post your move and action.

Administrative note: Kat's card draw exhausted the Tactics deck. I've reshuffled the discards.
