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

I fire on the base star and pause to see if it goes splodey.

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

sorry about that. Quick type before work.

1. You said you launch into Sector 6, but then you say you're in Sector 5 with Civvie D. Which is it?
sector 5 please
2. If Chief shoots at the basestar (and then possibly a heavy raider), do you intend to use your reroll on the first missed roll?
Yes, the first missed roll.

I'm off to work, I should be home around 2. If I destroy the base star on the first try I will fire on a heavy raider.

(otherwise I'll fire on the base star again)

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

BSG

Any SP interrupts? (I'll ask for them for both the first and second roll.)

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

BSG

None here.

Everyone passes on interrupts for the first roll. Let's see if the basestar survivies.

Die roll: 8. Hit. Basestar destroyed!

Next, chief trains the weapons on a heavy raider. No interrupts.

Die roll: 7. Hit! Bah.

Of course you realise, this means war. Helo's Crisis Card is:

Tactical Strike
Cylon Attack

Next up on FOX: When Orphaned Raiders Attack! The raiders in Sector 6 open fire on the RSVs. I have standing COs from the pilots.

Raider 1: 3. Miss. Now it starts missing.

Raider 2: 7. Viper damaged. That's more like it.

Raider 3: 2. Miss.

Raider 4: 8. Viper destroyed!

There are no more RSVs in Sector 6. Apollo stands guard alone. Next, the raiders in Sector 4 move to Sector 5. Here Helo stands guard over Civilian ship D.

Step 2: add a bunch of ships to the board. (Check the end-of-turn summary for details.)

Step 3: Hangar assault - damage 2 vipers in the reserves. There are no vipers in the reserves, so this has no effect.

That concludes Helo's turn. Starbuck, I'm sending you your card draw. When you're ready, please post your move and action. Note: the only undamaged vipers are currently piloted by Apollo and Helo, so you are unable to launch.

"Apollo to Helo. Good to have you back. How do you like your welcoming party?"
A couple keg's of booze would have been more welcoming. Just when we get rid of a Basestar, another frakkin' one shows up??? What the hell??
