Can the same Cylon ship be activated more than once in a turn, for example with Cavil's ability or By Your Command?

The rulebook's wording is stricter than play, and posters relay a Fantasy Flight clarification that limits it to one activation per effect.

Within a single activation, no: a ship that has already moved or attacked in that activation cannot be activated again by the same icon. The rulebook says each ship can only be activated once on a given player's turn, but a relayed Fantasy Flight clarification says this means no more than one activation per activation effect, so a separate effect such as Cavil's ability or By Your Command can activate ships again.
