BSG (Kat)
So I have to move and I didn't draw an XO. Whichever way I go, the raiders will advance on me as their nearest target, right?
If I were to launch a scout, would anyone be able to help me plan its mission?

No, they advance on the civvies, not you. If they get an activation they'll move to Sector 2 (unless the board changes).
BSG ("Chief" Galen Tyrol)

I'm afraid I'm not Virgil (The man with the plan).
BSG (Kat)
Well that's unfortunate. Let's hope someone can XO me so I can move back.
I'll move to
Sector 3
and
Play LS-1
to scout the crisis deck.
(It's really all I can do)
BSG
Scouts away!
Die roll: 3. Pass!
The top card of the crisis deck is going out. Kat, when you're ready, let me know whether to put it on the top or the bottom of the deck.
BSG (Kat)
On account of no raider activation and a jump prep icon I think we should keep this one. I know fuel is tight but there are no good crises, right?
BSG
I can't send out the full details right now, but it's one I think you're all familiar with. Kat has sanctioned for you
the funny Riots (Admiral's Choice).
This is the one with the jump icon and basestar activation. I'll send out the details in the morning, but Pradmiral Zarek may make his choice before then if he wishes.
BSG(Zarek the Laugh Riot)
There's no way we're getting through with Morale that low. I choose
Option 2.
Chief? How about an XO to Push The Button?
BSG
Population and Fuel drop by 1, but everyone seems pretty happy about it. I presume because of the supplies of freshly roasted Soylent Green to replace the algae lost in the food fight. Finally, the jump track advances into the Blue. That concludes Kat's turn. Chief's cards are going out. Chief, when you're ready, plesae post your move and action. (Anyone who thinks they might pull an XO from the Chief, You can send me COs for your orders.)
