Administrative note: Adama's card draw has exhausted the Leadership deck. I've reshuffled the discards - all eight of them.
I like the way the walls go out. Gives you an open feeling. Firefly is a good design. People don't appreciate the substance of things. Objects in space. People miss out on what's solid.

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

Nice shooting, Apollo! (For some reason I thought sickbay prevented him from using that ability. Obviously not. We're a good deal less frakked than I thought we were.)
Admiral, I would suggest nuking the basestar in sector 3 for maximum-possible effect.

I would suggest nuking Apollo. He's getting pretty uppity, there.

Okay, I am thinking that the nuclear option is the way to go. If I do that can I also XO someone? I'm thinking either giving Apollo another chance to do some shooting, or letting Helo do some damage from weapons control, or getting Helo out there in a Viper.
Thoughts?
Also, do I have to move somewhere to do the Nuclear strike?

Firing a nuke takes up an action, so if you do that you can't do anything else. You don't have to move anywhere special to use it, so feel free to move wherever you want.
Two other points worth noting:
1, using a nuke involves a die roll, which can be modified by an SP. Don't forget to pass or lay on interrupts if you choose it.
2. A reminder, Sector 4 contains 2 raiders and 2 civvies - no vipers. If there's another raider activation, as it stands right now, those civvies will be destroyed.

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

An XO on Helo wouldn't be a bad play, so he can fire on the raiders from Weapons. Since he is already there, he gets 2 shots. Boomer, can you XO? I don't think so, but if you can, maybe XO Adama to nuke on your next go? Just trying to think up a plan here.
(man this viper is drafty. My ass is cold!)

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
I can't XO but I can help with a die roll.

If we're not using the nuke this turn, using Communications to get the civvies out of sector 4 into sector 5 would be our safest bet. We need to get them into a sector we can cover them with vipers, otherwise I have this feeling we're going to be desperately trying to destroy raiders in that sector to keep the civvies alive turn after turn.

If Adama XO's Zarek, could he use comm twice? I'm thinking, move all the occupied civvies into Sector 5, I'll be there next turn. (I launch into sector 5, right?)

If someone can XO me on another turn then that does seem like a good way to make use of the nukes.
