Laga, you're in the right place at the right time. The Basestar needs to be destroyed first. Except in unusual situations, the basestar ALWAYS needs to be destroyed first. It automatically generates more raiders if we clear all the raiders on the board.

The RSVs can wait until next turn to repair, and since you can take an extra action when you repair, you may find you repair 2, and can instantly repair another 2.

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

I have a sudden change of heart and Fire on the base star.

Faintly, from the direction of the brig, Zarek's voice can be heard cheering.

I gotta go to work. I should be back around 11 to resolve my crisis card.

God I hate the flail.

Yeah, that and the Warhammer are crazy powerful.

My best Brute just went up against someone with a flail. It gets messy - God I hate the flail.

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

Any Strategic Planning interrupts?

I have passes from everyone on SPs. Chief fires!

Die roll:

7. Hit.

Let's draw a damage token:

Critical Hit!

Ouch. Dammit, Chief, you're harshing on my basestar again. That does it, I'm calling in reinforcements. Your Crisis Card is:

Raiding Party
Cylon Attack

We start with a refreshing firefight. The 4 raiders attack the RSVs.

Raider 1: 8. RSV destroyed! No interrupts.

Raider 2: 4. Miss.

Raider 3: 5. RSV damaged.

Raider 4: 3. Miss.

Next, another Cylon attack party jumps in to join the fun.

Finally, the FTL Failure has no effect since you are still at the start of the Jump Prep track.

Mr Zarek, I'm sending you your card draw. When you're ready, please post your action.
