Wow, that was quick turn. Well done Master Apollo! Sorry team Humans, all that hard work on getting the Jump Track into the blue has been thwarted. You are back in the red. I believe that concludes Master Apollo's turn.
BSG
Wow, activate the raiders has a cute effect. 2 will go clockwise, 4 will go counter clockwise, since the rules state:
Move: If there are no civilian ships in the area, the viper
moves one space area towards the nearest civilian ship. If
several civilian ships are equidistant, it moves clockwise
around Galactica.
And the puppies in sector 2 are closest to the civies in sector 6. Wow. That puts all raiders one activation away from sharing space with vipers and civies. Sector 6 only has one viper in it! Sector 5 has a RSV and Helo.
BSG
Well, at least we don't need cards.

While our fair GM tallies up Boomer's actions, we need to come up with a plan.
Obviously, if Zarek draws an XO, I'd use it. It may seem an odd choice, but I would actually suggest XOing Tigh to draw two purple. ETA: On further consideration, I'd say XO Tigh to move to communications and look at the ships in sector 6 and move them to sector 5 where they will be better protected.
We are still two activations away from the raiders firing on us, I'm in the air and can help a bit with that. Also, if need be, I could XO someone on my turn to launch two more birds into sector 6.
If Zarek doesn't draw an XO, maybe quorum cards? Authorization of Brutal Force might be useful.

Wow, that was a quick 1-2 punch. But all in all, not too bad. No damage done. No resources lost. And you all have the same amount of cards you had before! Wheee!
BSG
Amazing, two turns complete! Mr. President, your cards have been sent. Can we get another in before bed time??

Nice try, but I'm pretty sure Tigh has passed out by now.

Amazing, two turns complete!
Well, you know, we're machines. We know how to multitask.

It's just nice to see the skies full of all that shiny metal and knowing that there's at least a little time before those pesky humans can jump out of there.

It's a real coming of age moment in a young Cylon's life. Doesn't it just make you go "Awww"?
Speaking of coming of age, billytea, I was watching
Walkabout
today and thought of you.
