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

Sector 6 fills with RSVs! This is what I believe the military refers to as 'a target-rich environment'. The 4 raiders activate and attack.

Raider 1: 7. Hit! RSV damaged.

Ok, we need to pause here to get COs on Evasive Maneouvre interrupts. The shooting will continue once I've got all the orders.

BSG

Ok, I have COs, so we can keep going. No EMs are played; RSV damaged.

Raider 2: 8. Viper destroyed! Helo plays a Red-1 to force a reroll.

Raider 2a: 1. Miss.

Raider 3: 1. Miss.

Raider 4: 6. RSV damaged. No interrupts.

Final tally: 2 damaged RSVs, 2 smirking raiders.

That concludes Apollo's Big Adventure. Chief Tyrol, I'm sending you your card draw. When you're ready please post your move and action.

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

BSG

Are the damaged RSVs still in space?

If they're in the hangar deck I can't decide if I should move there and repair them or stay where I am and fire on the base star.

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

Holy frak! Please tell me I can come back to play this round?!?

BSG

Chief, stay where you are and fire on that throwing star ship before it launches any more birds in the air!

Can I fire on the base star and then move to the hangar deck?

No, the order is strictly move then action. If you wish to fire on the basestar you'll need to stay put. The damaged vipers are back at the Hangar Deck, so you have the option of moving there to repair them.

I think I should go repair the RSVs.

BSG

If that basestar spits out any more spawn, we will go from screwed to royally screwed. The rsv can take on the raiders. There is nothing to take on the mothership. I really think you should stay in weapons and fire on the big one in sector 5.
