True. It is just I look at one thing, then the other.

Revised plan:

Launch Viper

Activate Viper to Move to Sector Delta

Play Critical Situation Card

Activate Viper to Escort Civilian Ship

You can only use the Critical situation card at the start of your turn, replacing the movement phase. So you can use it first, then launch into a viper, then move a viper to delta, and you still have 2 actions. Since you can only use the CAG actions once per turn, if you activate the unmanned again, you have to pass the CAG title to someone else. You'll still have 1 more action to use, though.

Ah thank you. This is my first time playing, and trying to do this. But it says that I am only able to do an unmanned action once, otherwise I lose the CAG title.

Yeah, so your actions would be

Play Critical situation
Activate Hangar deck to launch into (need specification of echo or foxtrot)
Use CAG action to move viper (in echo- make sure you specify which one you want moved please, though it was obvious because only one can move to delta)

From here you can either use the second CAG ability and do
Use CAG ability to escort Civvie in delta and pass CAG title to (another player)
Another action of your choice

OR

You can decide on 2 additional actions.

OR you can not play CS yet, and then you'll only have 1 action.

CAG title has 2 actions on it:

CAG
When a civilian ship needs to be placed on the main game board, you must choose the space area. You must choose an area that does not already contain civilian ships (if able).
Action: Activate 1 unmanned viper and then give the CAG Title Card to any other human player.
Action: Once per turn, if you are piloting a viper, you may activate 1 unmanned viper and then take another action.

You choose to do either one of them if you wish as an action. The second action is the one you want to do as often as you can, as that basic is a free unmanned viper activation.

Thank you very much.

Launch Viper from Hangar Deck-Foxtrot

Use CAG ability to move Viper from Echo to Delta

Almost there, 1 more action. You can launch a scout if you have that card, you can XO someone if you have that card (though this can be dangerous), or you can just end your turn, you don't have to use all your actions.

Also, for your EM preload, did you want to use it on just you getting attacked, or anyone?
 
As you are a viper, you options for an action are as follows.

Move the Viper to an different space area, The viper you are in can only move 1 space area per turn, so you can go to Echo or Alpha.
Attack a Cylon Ship. You can't do this as there is not a Cylon ship in your area.

Play a card from your hand that says Action on it. An example would be Executive Order. You play it as an action and choose a human who gets to take a movement or an action followed by an action.

If you have a Full Throttle Skill card, you can use it to move to any space area and attack a Cylon ship. So you could attack those raiders in Alpha or if you are feeling very luckly, attack the Basestar. Note you hit a raider on a 3, but the Basestart you need an 8. The plus side of the basestar is that if you hit the weapons, it can't shoot, if you hit the hanger it can't send ships out and the others make is simpler to kill later on.

If you have an XO and someone you trust to do something, it can be useful. XO J-L to get more vipers out is useful.
 
Also, King. Please remove the words CYLON FLEET from inside the Cylon Fleet box so that it loses the scroll bar. You must have the old version as we changed that to do that a while ago.

Use XO for Saul Tigh

I have no clue whatsoever to do, thusly, no action. The EM would be for anyone at all, for example, me, an unmanned and so on.

You'll learn, this game isn't that hard to understand, just make sure you read all the cards and pay attention to what they say. We can help you if you make any mistakes, I was pretty clueless my first game as well.
