Just waiting on interrupts from Starbuck at this point.

Starbuck only drew Red and Blue for her starting cards, so she can't have an SP yet anyway. It's probably safe to pass her.

shoot, sorry. Pass, yes.

BSG

Okay then. Basestar powers activate! Form of… a die roll.

Die roll: 5. Damaged! Let’s see where the old girl got hit, shall we? Ooh, FTL Control.

Good thing you’re not close to jumping.

So, only the first turn and you’ve already lost 1 morale and (for the moment) your FTL Control. Go big or go home? At least the jump prep track advances by 1. That concludes Baltar’s turn. Seems like it must have taken a lot out of him to end up in Sickbay.

Helo, I'm sending you your card draw. Since the radiation on Caprica has you in a temporary holding pattern, you can’t move or take action, so we’ll move right on to another crisis once I’ve done that. Yippee!

BSG

Damaged! Let’s see where the old girl got hit, shall we? Ooh, FTL Control.

Ah well, could have been worse. If it'd got the Hangar Deck we'd have two crew members in Sickbay.

Well, it's about to get a lot worse. Only your second crisis and it’s a doozy. Cylon Attack: Boarding Parties. Yikes!
Details to be emailed.

BSG

But, but, I had planned to move to this other part of Caprica and sacrifice to Demeter since I'm on fertility detail.

So, there's nothing to be done about this crisis, or am I missing something?

Slumber party!

Almost nothing. You do have one choice to make: the Cylon activation is heavy raiders. Since there are none on the board (at the activation stage at least), the basestar launches one into Sector 1. The card then adds four more heavy raiders; however, there are only four heavy raiders in the game, so one of them can't be placed. In such a situation, it's the current player's choice (i.e. you) which ship doesn't get put on the board.

The upshot is that you can choose either of the following outcomes:

2 heavy raiders in Sector 1, 2 heavy raiders in Sector 3
3 heavy raiders in Sector 1, 1 heavy raider in Sector 3

The heavies in Sector 1 are closer to boarding (BAD THING). If you're human, it would be better to take the first option. It means one heavy raider will take longer to board Galactica and KILL US ALL.

Of course, if you're a Cylon, you'll just have to decide whether you want everyone to know that yet.

I see. Quick possibly dumb question - how are the sectors numbered? I'm looking at the pictures of the board and I'm think I'm picturing everything wrong.
