Newb Question on Viper Activation

By GalaxyUC, in Battlestar Galactica

Having trouble interpreting what "players can activate each viper any number of times during a players turn" means. Does this means a player can use the same viper over and over again in a single turn? How do you know when to stop using a viper? Or does this mean a player can activate each non-piloted viper on the board each time? What the frak? My question should really be, in combat, what can a player, not piloting a viper do with a viper or viperS that has been launched or is in space already? Thanks!!

Any news on Expansions???

When you activate the "Command" location, you get 2 viper activations. Each one can be used to launch, move or attack with a viper.

Saying "each viper can be activated any number of times" means you can move a viper with the first activation, and tell it to attack with the second (or any other combination). You do not have to activate a different viper with the second activation, although you can. After you used both your activations on the same or different vipers, your action is over.

This seems to contradict what is printed on the board, but this was clarified by the designer (and is listed in the official FAQ, I think).

Btw, Lee Adama's CAG ability works the same way - you get 6 viper activations, spendable as you like.
