Yeah, shoot at the raider.
Um, well, we listened to aggressively cheerful music sung by people chosen for their ability to dance. Then we ate cookie dough, and talked about boys.

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

Wait. I only fire at ONE raider, not the group of them?
Each activation of Weapons Control allows you to fire at one Cylon ship (raider, heavy raider or basestar).
Nothing's happened with this action yet, so I'll put it on hold until you confirm or choose another action.
Edit: ok, that's confirmation. We're still calling for SP interrupts.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir
Sean, with you there, Tigh could XO you, thus allowing you two shots. If you repair, the vipers can't be put into action until someone goes to command and activates them. By weapons, you have a good shot at killing one your turn, and TWO more on Petes turn, which is next.

For completeness, if Starbuck repaired vipers, they could be activated either by someone going to Command, or by Starbuck activating the Hangar Deck to launch in one of them (which also allows her another action). If XO'd, she would then get yet another action, as the launch doesn't count as a move.

No bold header here. Not game talk, but talk about the game.
Here's the issue, I am on the precipice of CRAZY work hours, starting with this weekend, and going until... well, I don't know. If all goes well, things will be calm by Wednesday or Thursday. If not, things will be chaotic until the 30th. If calm, I could be very bored, and WANTING distractions. If chaotic, no clue when I could log in. The question, do we want a substitute player to fill in for me? I'm not wanting to leave the game, but I'm not wanting to cause undue delays in the game. So, my fellow players, tell me what you think.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
I don't think this game is going to last much longer.

My preference is Sean repair raiders, I XO Helo, he gets out of brig, heads straight to the hanger deck and then launches.

Starbuck's already made a call on her move and action, but we're still waiting on interrupts; if she wants to change her mind before then that's ok. If we do get all passes through first, however, I will have to proceed with her orders as given.
o_a, if you can find someone who's willing to fill in for you temporarily until your work situation calms down, I'm fine with that. (I'm also fine with you continuing to play, if everyone else is too.)

I have passes on all interrupts. Time for the die roll.
Die roll: 1. Miss.
Time for a crisis, and it is:
The Olympic Carrier
Skill Check (11 YGR)
I'm calling for Investigative Committee and Scientific Research interrupts. Twelve hours to pass or play.
