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

I think you're getting yourself confused with Cybermen.

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

You can only put one civvie in Sector 6. The other one has to go in Sector 1, 4 or 5.

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
This just gets better and better.
Question, BT: Full Throttle can be used as a move or an action. Is it possible to play 2 in one turn?

That's one I haven't come across before. I'd rule that you can; there's nothing on the card saying otherwise, unlike (say) an XO. And, being Starbuck, you could still have another action as well.

Time for the end-of-turn summary. Please note: the board now contains every basestar, every heavy raider, every remaining civilian ship, every undamaged viper - and every raider but one. Every space sector is occupied. It doesn't get much more crowded than this.

Okay. Lots of crazy plans, none of them amount to as much as I'd like. Since I didn't draw another MF, hopefully this one gives us the most bang for the buck.
Move: Play Full Throttle 1 to Move to Sector 5 to fire on one of the raiders.
Action 1: Play Full Throttle 2 to Move back to Sector 6 and fire on one of the raiders.
Action 2: Play an XO 1 on Mr. Gaeta. Gaeta, how about firing up those batteries on Pegasus and training them on Sector 4? No civvies there to worry about hurting, but those guys will be heading into Sector 5 on their next activation.

I'd also like to reitarate to Team Human the usefullness of hanging out in a location that can be activated twice in one turn, to take maximum advantage of an XO.
Command, Comms, Weapons Control (and CIC and Main Batteries on Pegasus), the Press Room (and to a lesser degree the Research Lab) as well as the Hanger Deck for Pilots, all grant us a benefit if they're activated twice in one turn. (Or in the case of the Hangar Deck, allows a pilot to act twice with their viper after launching).
Any of the other locations, while useful when needed, can just as easily be moved to when XOed without us losing anything. (The rare exception being FTL Control, if the person there also has a Launch Scout card they want to play.)
