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

OK, it says if I start my turn in a viper I get an extra action but if my action is to launch myself in a viper is that the end of my turn?

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

No. True, you don't get an extra action from your special ability this turn, because you don't start in a viper. However, the Hangar Deck action allows you to launch in a viper into Sector 5 or 6, and take a bonus action as well. So you could launch, and also play an XO or scout the Crisis Deck. Launching is a bit of a freebie like that.

Got it. I launch myself into section 5 and play a P1 to Scout the crisis deck.

A scouting mission means a roll of the die. If anyone would like to play an interrupt, speak now, or forever hold your peace.

This is one of the ones I passed on in my standing conditional orders, right?

Yes, sorry, I should have said I already have COs from you, Starbuck, and Adama.

It's safe to pass Baltar too, since he hasn't drawn any purple yet. That just leaves Helo.

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

I get knocked unconscious, and when I wake up, everything's gone to hell. Don't you military people have guns and ships and whatnot? Target the ReaversCylons! Target everyone! Somebody fire!

Oh, and somebody get me out Sickbay, please. It smells like old people and death in here. Most unpleasant.

Wow, that's a whole lot of baddies in short order. Getting XOed out of sickbay so I can get my full card draw would be nice. If Chief can swing a repair of FTL followed by XOing me, I'd be happy to go order some vipers around. I'm thinking launching one into each of sector 5 and 6, or should I move an RSV out of 5 into 4 to cover the civvies there?

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

BSG

Yeah, looking ahead I'm definitely seeing a move to FTL and repairing that thing, what with all those frakking Cylons floating around out there and all, as being my best primary course of action. But I am open to suggestions as regards my second action.
