I am imagining this as...

"Fire, yes, oMG fire!!!

Doo de doo de doo...

Oh, don't mind me just waiting for the weapons system to reboot..."

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

another option would be to play a "consolidate power", draw two purple cards and hope one of them is "strategic planning".

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

bsg. Not in charcter, omnis talking. I can't wait to get to the ship and be in weapons, since my skill allows me to re-roll once per turn.

Yahtzee of Zero Punctuation has the most brilliant review of "Arkham Asylum" EVER.

EVER. And let me repeat EVER.

I gotta go. I'll catch up with my xo in the wee hours.

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

BSG

You can indeed activate a location twice with an XO. Consolidating power is of course also an option.

Chief fires at the basestar. After the poor results from the first two shots, I have COs from Starbuck: Play a Strategic Planning-3.

Die roll: 5 + 2 = 7. Hit! Let's draw a damage token.

Structural Damage. Any further attacks against this basestar are +2 to hit.

Chief, what would you like to do for your second action?

Chief, what would you like to do for your second action?
I answer, only because she indicated she was stepping out for awhile, and the anticipation is KILLING ME! It seemed to me she was wanting to fire on the ship twice, if she could:
I fire on the base star and wait to see if I can do it again.

To quote from Pete's favorite game: "Blow It Up! Blow It Up! Blow It Up!"

Yes, but Chief also said:

Even if she hadn't, I would request confirmation that "wait to see if I can do it again" leads to "do it again".

grumble grumble. Hate it when you are right. And you always are. Want action! Blow It UP! Blow It UP!

(what can I say? I'm bored on Caprica, and Boomer is trying to hunt down some cigarettes)
