With the Hangar Deck busted, can I launch vipers?
Nope. Do you have a blue card to repair the hanger deck?
Fred: So you don't worry that it's possible for someone to send out a biological or electronic trigger that effectively overrides your own sense of ideals and values and replaces them with an alternative coercive agenda that reduces you to a mindless meat puppet? Shopkeeper: Wow. People used to think that I was paranoid.

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

If I stay where I am at, do I get two actions? I dunno why, but that's stuck in my head somehow.
No. You'd get two actions if you were XO'd and you stay where you are, but on your own turn you only get one action.
With the Hangar Deck busted, can I launch vipers?
Yes. The busted Hangar Deck only stops you launching yourself. Apparently that's the VIP hangar deck, all the redshirts are launched from a slingshot or something. You can launch RSVs by going to Command and activating it.

My bad, I thought you wanted to hop in a viper. But then you wouldn't've said viperS.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
I'm going down to my folk's house. I'll be back on line probably around 10 or 11 pm board time.

crap. I'm torn. Between sending some RSV out the aft tube to help defend the population, or firing on the lead mothership. I'm leaning towards firing on the basestar. The odds are against me, but I feel it's an action that might resolve now. The RSV can't do anything for a couple rounds. But they'd offer protection for civvie B if those raiders make it around. I'm worried that Civvie A is done for. Raq, Laga, thoughts?

What, you suddenly don't think I'm a toaster?
ETA: I'd defend the civvie ships, as if they get shot we lose population. Either move them to 5 or 4, away from the raiders, or put some RSVs there.
