I have not looked at BSG email today. I'd be in favor or reissuing all loyalty cards but not all skill cards.
Mal: Yeah, well, just be careful. We cheated Badger out of good money to buy that frippery, and you're supposed to make me look respectable. Kaylee: Yes, sir, Captain Tightpants.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

I'm OK with any redo to keep the game fair.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

No, we won't be redoing all skill cards; just those of the player in question. Just the one loyalty card as well, to keep changes to a minimum. I'll make the changes now.

I can either help a lot, or not at all. How confident are we in the ability to pass this check, I really don't want to overplay.

Not sure how much I can say with secrecy rules. Since I was in a "nothing or a lot" mode. I opted for "a lot". If one other person wanted to put in a little, in case Destiny frak's us, that would be great. I think another "a lot" would be overkill.

The Old Republic
So I've started playing the Bioware Star Wars MMO - even with the limits on F2P players it's still a Bioware RPG with eight paths through it that I got for free. I started with the Jedi Knight path and just realized something.
The interviews the developer gave when the game first came out said they realized people wanted to play like they were the characters from the movies - a smuggler like Han Solo, a Sith like Darth Maul and so on. What I realized is that they based the Jedi Knight experience specifically on Luke Skywalker.
Why Luke? Because the three companions I've acquired so far are clear expies of Artoo, Threepio, and Mara Jade.
