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

BSG

Kat unleashes the fury! Well, the annoyance, at least.

Die roll: 4. Hit!

For her action, I have COs:

Play State of Emergency 6

Ladies and gentlemen, it is a real live emergency! This is not a drill! Every player in turn may either move or take an action (not both), starting with Kat. Her order are:

Move to Sector 6

Chief is next. Romo and Zarek, you can put in COs if you wish.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir

BSG ("Chief" Galen Tyrol)

I MOVE: to Hangar Deck!

Might not have been an XO, but, ya did kill a toaster, and I did get out of Sickbay. All in all, not bad in my book!!

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

BSG (Romo)

Cool, I activate Caprica and draw Crisis Cards.

Two moves so far. But things are about to get interesting, as Romo is up next.

Edit: or, alternatively, 30 seconds ago. Cards are going out now. Romo, when you're ready, please post your choice.

Space looks a bit too empty. How about a Raiding Party ?

BSG

How about it indeed? The fleet has been struck by a:

Raiding Party
Cylon Attack

Your precious jump icon! The one it took you ten turns to acquire, it has been stolen from your grasp! But first, we have a raider activation. In Sector 5 there's 1 raider, 1 RSV and two civvies. In Sector 6 there's 3 raiders, 1 RSV and Kat in an assault raptor. Kat chooses the order of activation. Kat, shall we resolve Sector 5 or Sector 6 first? You can also send me COs for EMs and RIs.

Laga - Jul 07, 2014 3:02:24 am PDT #23611 of 26134

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

BSG (Kat)

Ugh! Let's resolve Sector 6 first.

BSG

And by resolve, she means play Run Interference 4. All three raiders miss! Buck up, little raiders, you have reinforcements coming from Sector 1.

Then there's the lone raider in Sector 5, who fires:

Raider 1 and only: 4. Miss.

Good result for the humans, but more Cylons are on their way. We add ships to the board. This is an unusual situation, to resolve a Cylon attack card mid-turn. I shall post the current state of play in space to assist in people's plans.
