Starbuck: Yes, sir! My pleasure sir!
Starbuck hobbles into the hanger deck.
Starbuck: Chief, prep another bird for me I'm going out.
Chief: You look like crap. You think you can bring her back in one piece this time?
Starbuck: Chief, if I bring her back in pieces I'm gonna make frakkin' sure that I got plenty of toaster parts to fix it with!
Chief: Alright people quit your gawkin' and get the Lieutenant's bird in the air.
Tyrol allows himself the briefest of smiles before turning his attention to Starbuck's damaged Viper.

Crisis Card Revealed!
________________________________
"Sir!" The panic in Gaeta's voice was unmistakable. "We're seeing a massive amount of new enemy contacts on Dradis!"
"Status report!" yelled Tigh.
"Enemy Basestar just jumped into Bravo Sector and looks to be scrambling Raiders. We're also seeing more of those 'heavy' Raider ships, new contacts in Charlie Sector. Another one appears to have launched from the first Basestar, and the intial one we were keeping tabs on has continued on its collision course with us."
Tigh's face went white, and he gripped the nearest table to steady himself. The Cylons had found them. The first wave was just a scouting fleet looking for survivors. Now...they were bringing the heavy artillery.
"That's not all, sir," Gaeta continued. "Civilian ships have strayed into the primary combat zone, though Galactica is still between them and most of the new vanguard."

BOARDING PARTIES
1. Activate: Heavy Raiders
2. Setup: 1 basestar, 4 heavy raiders, 4 raiders, and 3 civilian ships
3. Special Rule - Surprise Assault: There are no vipers in this setup.
#Heavy Raider in Alpha Sector activates and moves to Foxtrot Sector!
Setup:
1 Basestar is placed in Bravo Sector!
4 Raiders are placed in Bravo Sector!
2 Civilian Ships are drawn and placed in Echo Sector!
1 Civilian Ship is drawn and placed in Delta Sector!
Currently there are not enough Heavy Raiders to meet the deployment of the current Cylon Attack card. Current Player (Admiral Tigh) may choose which 3 of the 4 are to be placed.
For reference, 2 are slated to be placed in Alpha Sector, and 2 are to be put in Charlie sector.

Starbuck and I are doing the best we can, but it would be nice to see Bravo sector get nuked sometime soon.
"That certainly would take a bit of pressure off our pilots, both Starbuck and I have some leadership ability and may be able to persuade the Admiral - but the cylon fleet seems to have headed the wrong way to flank our civilian fleet thus giving us some breathing space, and my calculations on yield show that the best result for one warhead would be a basestar and about 3 raiders destroyed ... which would still leave 4 to come after the civvies."
"I have spoken with Mr Gaeta and FTL calculations are finished and are being sent around the fleet, we will be able to auto jump in maybe a couple of turns - so another option could be to move the civilian ships in Sector Delta to a safer position in Sector Echo which I could do as I can get to Communications quite quickly, while Starbuck could use her Move and two Actions to get to sector Delta."
"Or Starbuck could just move back to Galactica (Communications) and then use her two actions to move all the civvies in danger into safer sectors."
"That way we can save the nukes for later, when we may be in a worse position with raiders and civilian proximity but caught with our pants down with our jump-prep - and I still need one for something I am working on for the Admiral."
"FRAK - that big raider is getting far too close to Galactica for my liking ... I have a strange feeling about it, we need to destroy it quickly. Starbuck could use her two actions on it - or she could still jump back onboard and move the civvies and I could get over to Command and get those other vipers to have a few runs at it (and I'm sure there must be a Strategic Plannning help around)."

Kingput, you can make your Heavy Raider choice if you'd like, but otherwise enjoy the weekend, everyone. Look for the game to fully continue Monday morning.

MOD NOTE: Due to Trashfest and my own potentially limited access this weekend, updates to this thread will be limited to non-existant.

I think that there must be just four heavy raiders in the game, and one was already in play, in Foxtrot sector. Thanks to the latest crisis card, there are supposed to be four more played, but since there are only three more available, you get to pick which sector gets two new heavy raiders, and which one gets just one new heavy raider.

I would highly recommend putting only 1 heavy in Alpha and of course keep the 2 in Charlie.
Thanks for report Starbuck. I agree. 1 heavy in Alpha and 2 in Charlie.
