I can launch and then play an XO. Is it time for nukes?
I'll be fine. I'll be your bounty, Jubal Early. And I'll just fade away.

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

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
The rules say "You may move your pawn to an adjacent, unblocked tile for 1 action per move."
Because none of the other action descriptions say "per move" I interpret this as meaning that you may only move once per turn.
I don't have Forbidden Desert, but I do have Forbidden Island, and Forbidden Island rules allow you up to 3 actions, and a move is an action. And it is clear when something can only be done once "per turn."
So my interpretation is, yes, you can move your pawn 4 times if that's what you want to do.
Also, I have played Forbidden Island with the creator, so I'm pretty sure I'm playing that game right.

Um. I think so. Anyone else agree? I think Sector 3 looks prime for nuking. But we would really want a plan to help make it a sure thing, no? Anyone have one to help? (assuming I get xo'd)

I cannot help with a plan, only more shooting things.

I will launch into sector 5, Move to Sector 4, and Play XO-1 on Admiral Hoshi.

I've been XO'd! I stay where I am, NO MOVEMENT , and for my first action, I fire a NUKE on to SECTOR 3.
Let's see how that goes.

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

Let's see how that goes.
It goes boom, that's how it goes. What the hell kind of nukes have you been playing with?
But before we roll for that, Helo, moving to Sector 4 and playing an XO are both actions, and you only get one bonus action after launching. Do you want to stay in Sector 5 and play the XO, or move to Sector 4 and not play it?

Oh shoot I was thinking of launching as a move with a bonus action. I will stay in Sector 5.

Hoshi receives an XO, and fires a nuke! Helo plays a Strategic Planning 3 on the roll.
Die roll: 1 + 2 = 3. Basestar destroyed!
Hoshi, you may now take a second action. When you're ready, please post your orders.

What do we think folks? Should we launch the other nuke?
