The question is, should I go try to shoot a basestar, or should I park myself on the raider space so they shoot me instead of the battlestar?

Activate CAG to move 5 o'clock ship to 3 o'clock
Move to 9 o'clock and shoot the basestar
MH3U Veggie Elder Ticket Guide
Receive Skills Step: Darian draws 1 Politics, 1 Leadership, 2 Tactics, and 1 Engineering card.
Movement Step: Darian moves to Command.
Action Step: Darian plays Leadership 2 - Executive Order on Dracil.
Executive Order: Dracil moves to the fore (9 o'clock) of Galactica and uses his CAG action to move the unmanned Viper Mk. II in the port-quarter (5 o'clock) to aft (3 o'clock). He uses his bonus action to fire on the basestar.
Attack Roll: 3, Miss.
Gaeta moves into position to help coordinate the Viper, giving Apollo the go-ahead to move out. The CAG orders a viper to watch over the civilians while he attempts to do damage to the enemy basestar without success. Meanwhile, Gaeta receives a message from a raptor ready to launch on a scheduled scouting mission...

Gaeta decides that the time is not right for a scouting run, deciding the fleet needs to work with the resources it has for the time being.

-See where we're headed.
-Go say hi to Kara and see if I can't see what I can do in the Hangar.
-Go say hi to that Basestar.
What do you think? I'm thinking Kara could help with getting those civs out of danger, but if she's been drinking again and my crisis activates raiders we could be in for some trouble, what with only one viper being there.

Move to Hangar Deck, encounter Kara Thrace.
Movement Step: Stiles moves to the Hangar Deck.
Ally Resolution: Stiles resolves ally Kara "Starbuck" Thrace, flipping over her Trauma token. The result is Antagonistic. Raiders are activated, advancing from the starboard-quarter ( 1 o'clock) to aft (3 o'clock). The next ally card is revealed, Saul Tigh.
Beneficial Result: Executive Officer - You may choose another character to send to the "Brig".
Antagonistic Result: Heavy-handed - You are sent to the "Brig".
Stiles will need to place a trauma token from his personal supply to Tigh, and then we can move on to the action step.
Play 2 Leadership - Executive Order on Felix Gaeta (Darian) with the suggestion of escorting the civilians away.
Activate Command again; order the aft viper to open fire on enemy raiders twice.
Not sure I like Saul looming over my shoulder here, but I'll do what must be done.

Attack Roll 1: 1, Miss.
Attack Roll 2: 6, Hit.
Dualla makes a visit to the Hangar Deck to see if she can provide some support. She learns that Starbuck's been out in space trying to help support the fleet, but it appears that all she's doing is riling the enemy up. Dualla opens a line of communication to Gaeta in command to rein Starbuck's actions in, and countermeasures against the Cylons are taken. Meanwhile, Saul Tigh reviews the situation and puts in a suggestion to the admiral...
Crisis Step: Declare Martial Law
Admiral Helena Cain (Professor Phobos) must choose:
A) -1 Morale, and Admiral Helena Cain (Professor Phobos) receives the President title.
OR
B) -1 Population, and Admiral Helena Cain (Professor Phobos) discards 2 Skill Cards.
After Crisis: Activate Basestars
Stiles, I will need to know what battlestar will be damaged, should the basestar attack hit.
Pegasus will take the hit.
Sounds a bit cylony.
We have a lot more population than morale, too.
Crisis Step: Declare Martial Law
Admiral Helena Cain (Professor Phobos) must choose:
A) -1 Morale, and Admiral Helena Cain (Professor Phobos) receives the President title.
OR
B) -1 Population, and Admiral Helena Cain (Professor Phobos) discards 2 Skill Cards.
Professor Phobos chooses option A, taking the Presidency and -1 morale.
The Admiral follows Saul's suggestion, taking control of the Presidency.
After Crisis: Activate Basestars
Basestar Attack: 4... anyone want to spend a Calculations? (I only need confirmations from all players that draw Engineering, in this case Darian and Stiles.)
Oh, I'm sorry that I value human lives way more than the Fleet's delicate feelings.
Or is your problem just that I value human lives, eh?

So I have an XO. Any ideas who I should use it on? I could let Gaeta shoot down that last raider, then maybe get that 7 o'clock viper over here to concentrate fire on the basestar.

Movement Step: Dracil remains in the fore (9 o'clock) location.
Action Step: Dracil uses his CAG Action to activate the aft (3 o'clock) location, firing on a Raider there.
Attack Roll: 8, Hit.
Dracil's bonus action to follow.
MH3U Veggie Elder Ticket Guide
Edit: I do think it's worth it to activate adminstration on your turn maybe (since it only takes 3 for you to pass), but not worth using an XO's double action on. I *think* it's less efficient for the same person to be both admiral and president (can't nuke and use quorum at the same time for example).
MH3U Veggie Elder Ticket Guide
Anyways, one person making both the President and Admiral choices is pretty dangerous stuff. I think it was sort of fishy that Phobos immediately decided to take both titles without consulting the rest of us.
Come talk about boardgames with us
Action Step: Dracil plays Leadership 1 - Executive Order on Darian.
Executive Order: Darian activates Command, ordering the aft (3 o'clock) viper to fire on the last Raider in the area.
Attack Roll: 7, Hit.
Second Command activation to follow, with second action to come afterwards.
And then Launch a Scout (strength 2) on the destination deck.
