I dated a lot of girls in high school, Ellen. Karl Turn-Me-On, they called me.

I know - we send each other birthday cards. Saul gets really angry. That's a lot of fun.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?

Raiders don't autohit the RSVs, they have to roll, and folks with Evasive Manuever cards can play them to force re-rolls if they do hit. So even if the Raiders in Sector 5 are activated, there's no guarantee they'll take out the RSVs.
I've also got some tricks up my sleeve if things get a little too hairy in Sector 5. Also, if the raiders in Sector 4 end up moving into Sector 5, I'd be happy to thin the herd some if someone can XO me after it happens. I've got a MF, but I'd hate to waste it with only two raiders in the area.
In any case...
Move: None.
Action: Activate the Hanger Deck to Launch into Sector 5.
Don't worry, nuggets; I've got your back.
Launch Bonus Action: Attack one of the Raiders in Sector 5.

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

Hooray, battle sequence!
Cue dramatic music! Sweeping camera shots! Close-up-grim-resolve-face! Time for action!
Die roll = 7. Hit.
Phew! I may need to lie down after that. Hey, has anyone noticed that the Admiral's still missing? There was that Rescue Mission being proposed before, but it didn't really lead anywhere and people were very sad. Maybe the President wants to:

My door is always open. Especially when I am on Colonial One and you are all elsewhere. But I digress. Anyone have thoughts on this mission?

While we're at it, this card activates raiders, which means one of the RSVs in Sector 5 is going to get fired on. Starbuck and Helo, you can send me COs for Evasive Maneouvres.

While 2 resources for one is a bad deal, we've also been taking a lot of hits to the morale and we've managed to 1 distance without spending any fuel, so I'm kind of leaning towards option 1. But neither choice really strikes me as a "Choose monkey" sort of thing.

Yeah, I can think my way to Option 1 being more sensible, but my gut says Option 2. So I think I'll go with my gut this time and choose Option 2.
We are still very sad to be missing our Admiral, after all.
