You're wrong about River. River's not on the ship. They didn't want her here, but she couldn't make herself leave. So she melted... Melted away. They didn't know she could do that, but she did.

I'm more tempted to activate the raider and keep beating on them that way.

I activate the raiders. Sorry for not waiting for discussion Helo, but I'm on limited cruise ship internet and want to keep things moving.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

BSG

No problem. Raiders are good too, as long as Starbuck's used up most of her defenses.

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

BSG

Cards going out. Would you like to activate Sector 5 or 6 first?

I'm not sure which one to activate first, as it all depends on what Starbuck has in her hand and how she'll play it. I suppose either one will work. I'll leave it up to you.

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

BSG

Does Dee have to move to the cylon fleet to activate the raiders?

Indeed she does.

Edit: for the most part, it doesn't really matter where Cylons are parked, as they can't be XO'd and they can move to any space they're allowed to activate at the start of their turn. That's changed a little in Pegasus, as they can't return to the Resurrection Ship ofter leaving it, and there's a Treachery card they can play in place of their move.

I'm taking Dee's move to the Cylon Fleet as implied in this case.

Very well. The 4 raiders in Sector 6 attack first, followed by the 3 raiders in Sector 5. There's a lot at stake here: it's possible for the humans to lose the game right here with the loss of only two ships, if they're the wrong two.

Attack 1: 1. Miss.
Attack 2: 6. Viper damaged! Starbuck plays an EM-2.
Attack 2a: 2 - 2 = 0. Miss.
Attack 3: 5. Viper damaged. Starbuck... does not play an EM, and is sent to Sickbay!
Attack 4: destroys one of the civvies. Dee's agreed to have it determined randomly, and it is:

Ship L: 0 Population!

The raiders from Sector 1 join their fellows in Sector 6, as the three raiders in Sector 5 open fire:

Attack 1: 4. Miss.
Attack 2: 6. Viper damaged! All 8 vipers are now damaged. There are no vipers remaining to protect the fleet.
Attack 3: destroys one civvie. Dee, as it happens, activated Comms way back when she revealed, and so she still knows the contents of ships D and E. Ship D taunts her with memories of her 'human' identity, and she orders it destroyed:

Ship D: 1 Population!

Population falls to 3. That concludes Dee's turn. I'm sending Ellen's cards now. Ellen, when you're ready, please post your move and action.
