She was just stepping off the lift from the landing bay when Cerberus caught up to her.
“Commander, you need to see this.”
The man held out the paper and Phoenix looked at it curiously, then at the Flight Officer. Cerberus was away from his post which was a rarity in the first place, but for him to leave the bridge like this… it must be important. Warriors passed her on their way to their appointed tasks leaving the two bridge officers standing in the corridor. In another half centon they’d be all alone. She decided to spare one centon to attend to this new distraction. If Cerberus thought it important then it must be so.
Taking the paper she read it and then gazed at the scanner image below.
“Bloody Hell!” she hissed before turning. “GYRONA!”
With a scrabbling of footsteps the Aquarian appeared from around the corner which he disappeared.
“Sir?”

The man nodded and rushed off once more.

Murmurs of astonishment ran through the room as Captain Gyrona finished his report regarding the Cylon base they had found.
“Last, there are twenty five ships. Most have fallen into such disrepair that an air strike is practically unnecessary, though I’d suggest a small one anyway. Three Vipers just in case I’m wrong.”
A topographical map of the section of the planet in question was brought up and dark haired man pointed to one of the hills.
“Only one of three communications dishes is operative, and it’s my guess that there are only a few IL series Cylons in the base itself. The main building is in such a state of disrepair I doubt it would take much to knock it out in the first place.”
He returned to the table and sat in the empty chair next to his wingman. Phoenix stood and went to the star chart.
“There’s only one major problem. We have to push up our time table. There’s a Cylon supply convoy heading through this quadrant on its way away toward the Cylon Capitol We have to take out that base before the convoy come within range of any distress beacon the listening post might want to send out. Here’s what we’re going to do…”
