Tally: 20 - 0 = 20. Pass!
Food rises by 1. Next, the raiders activate. Hmmm. We have both Scar and five regular raiders in Sector 3. Current player determines order of activation where it's an issue; Admiral Tigh, should we activate Scar first or last?
BSG (Admiral Tigh)
First. Get the worst over with faster. Maybe keep him in that sector one more turn.
BSG
Excellent. Let's roll.
Scar 1: 2. Miss.
Scar 2: 1. Miss.
Bit of stage fright there. Nothing to worry about. Next up is his backing chorus.
Raider 1: 8. Viper destroyed!
That's more like it! Or is it? Pause now for EMs. Everyone drawing Red, please pass or play.
BSG
That's well over 24 hours. Everyone passes on interrupts; the viper is destroyed! The remaining four raiders move to Sector 4. Hi, Helo!
Oh, damn. I have, again, forgotten one item. Tigh played a GI-1 on this check, so it's Reckless. Need to deal with that too. The top card of the Treachery deck is:
Dradis Contact 0
Result! Two raiders are added to Sector 1. They'll be activated too in a moment, but first, we'll turn over a second treachery card to resolve:
Personal Vices 3
Fun! Each human player draws 1 Treachery. Tigh also gets a mutiny card. Cards going out now.
Meanwhile, the the two new raiders in Sector 1 move to Sector 6. Finally, the jump track advances. That concludes Tigh's turn. Helo's cards are going out. Helo, when you're ready, please post your move and action.

Tigh finishes his turn with 11 cards and must discard one. Admiral Tigh, when you're ready, please post your discard.
BSG (Helo)
I don't have an XO and I think it's best if I stay put to protect these civvies. I can bring an RSV into my sector and order him to fire on the raiders three times or I can move him to sector 3 to fire on Scar twice. Any thoughts?
BSG (Baltron)
Have you considered Research Lab?
BSG (Admiral Tigh)
I think fire on 3 Raiders would be more productive.
BSG
A couple of administrative points I missed. First, I didn't remove the GI-1 from Tigh's hand; he is at 10 cards exactly, and doesn't need to discard. Second, Helo starts his turn off Galactica, and so he draws one card fewer than usual. Helo, which colour would you like to forego?
