because my reaction on reading BT's latest post was to say "Fuck" out loud.

Yeah, mine too, oddly enough.

Well, I think actions speak louder than words. Dr. Baltar, I see now that I was very wrong to have lobbied for you to be thrown in the brig.

I would ask that you repeat your previous action in a combat crisis, and move the civilians to a safe section, but since EVERY FRAKKING RAIDER THAT COMES IN THE GAME is now on the board, I'm not sure that's possible.

I also think you would earn the support and gratitude of our pilots and myself if you chose to brig Roslin, but that's maybe not the best use of your turn. If you have an XO and can get pilots in Vipers, or if you want to go take a shot at the basestar, go for it.

BSG

Dr. Baltar -- I know this is a stretch, but if you can XO me I can use my special one-time only CAG ability to launch all remaining Red Shirt Vipers, and at the same time, activate my special ability that anytime an RSV is launched, put myself into one of them and take an additional action. It would then be my turn and I could try and jump as many of these raiders as possible before they wipe out the civilian fleet.

The civvies in sectors 3 and 4 are goners, we have to try and save the ones in sectors 5 and 6. We need every viper available out there to do that.

Here is where you could prove your loyalty beyond doubt, Dr. Baltar. Humanity's fate could very literally be in your hands.

put myself into one of them

So there'd be one of the RSVs that isn't at -2 at least.

There are in fact 13 raiders on the board, which leaves 3 in reserves.

Concerning the raiders currently in play, should they activate, the raiders in Sector 1 would move to Sector 6. The raiders in Sector 4 would first destroy Civilian A and then move to Sector 5. (The heavy raiders would move to Sector 1, then Sector 6, then board Galalctica. The basestar would just shoot at you.)

OK you guys. I've been drinking. Maybe I should wait until tomorrow to decide what to do.

But here's what I'm trying to decide between- it's too soon to jump, right? So do I move civvy ships or mobilize combat ships?

BSG

Ah, hell no! Unleash that inner Colonel Tigh! Get your mean on, Laga!

So do I move civvy ships or mobilize combat ships?

There is nowhere to move civvy ships. We are totally surrounded by cylon raiders. Literally.

Should I attack the centurion on ther boarding track?!!

BSG

Should I attack the centurion on ther boarding track?!!

You could do that, but losing the game from the cylon boarding party is at least 4 turns away. We could lose the game in one or two raider activations. If they blow away enough of the civvy ships out there, we could run out of population fast.
