We're doing Sector 6 first, and Kat has something in mind. She plays Run Interference 3. The first four raiders all miss! That still leaves two, which go after the RSV:
Raider 5: 5. Hit!
But Kat plays an
Evasive Manoeuvre 1!
Raider 5a: 4. Miss.
Raider 6: 2. Miss.
Clearly they need reinforcements. The raiders in Sector 1 move to join them. That concludes Zarek's most entertaining turn. Kat's cards are going out. Kat, when you're ready, please post your move and action.

Administrative note: Zarek's card draw exhausted the Leadership deck. I've reshuffled the discards.
BSG ("Chief" Galen Tyrol)
Dear Gods! That was a lot. Thanks to PrAdmiral for going the extra parsec to get me out!
I suppose we should give thanks that the ships were population, which we have the most of, as creepy as it sounds to say it.
And after all of that, we still didn't get a jump icon!
BSG (Kat)
Oh now that's not fair. Even my special explodey ability will only take out five of these raiders. Any ideas?
I do have an xo.
BSG(President Boom)
Well, five less Raiders is five less Raiders. Maximum Firepower would be almost as good. Or you could XO the Chief to repair a bunch of RSVs, or me to hit the Engine Room or Main Batteries.
BSG ("Chief" Galen Tyrol)
Or the other nuke?
As much as I'd love an XO to fix shit, hell, it's my job, I think we need offense, to knock down the bread warmers.
BSG (Kat)
Well, this is the sector with the most hardware and if I stay here I end up in sickbay anyway on account of needing my pills so I'm going to take the 'spoldey express to guarantee five of these frakkers go down with me. I sacrifice myself for the good of the fleet.
BSG
Ennobling! And painful. Kat lands in Sickbay after flying her viper straight through five raiders! It is quite the spectacle. Hey, remember when Kat faced a Cylon Accusation? As long as we've got her to stay still for a moment, perhaps she should get that checked out. Kat's crisis card is:
Cylon Screenings

Kat, when you're feeling up to it, please post your choice.
BSG ("Chief" Galen Tyrol)
I can't help at all with the check. With morale so low, I'd be hesitant to risk another hit to it.
Pass on interrupts.
