I may have to get this game so I know what the fuck you people are talking about.

You really may. And then you may have to join in Season 2.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir

OK humans, I'm debating between debrigging Adama so we can get more crisis cards to advance the jump track.

OR.

fix the Weapons Center so we can fire on enemies when they appear.

What do you two think? Or option C that you want to suggest? Or should I try to debrig the Doc, and Adama xo's me to repair? Assuming he can do that? Or screw repairs, and just debrig everyone?

We are almost home. We are also almost without population.

If it helps at all, since you don't draw Green there's nothing you can do that would debrig Adama (or Baltar) anyway.

OMG, in brute news. Can you hack Brute to spice up your stats? Ran into a bloke with 384 hitpoints at level 11!! With my Beast Mistress, I figured why not. [link]

But doesn't Purple help??? I draw two of those.

No, the point is that you have no way to initiate a debrigging check. That can only be done from within the Brig, and can only target oneself. Without any Green cards, you can't XO either of them to initiate the check.

Ahhhhhh :: ding :: The light of knowledge! Well then, that greatly limits what I can do, huh?

Since we are SOOooo close to the end, in both ways that it could BE the end, I'm hesitant to make the decision without input. The other humans seem to have normal sleep patterns (lucky them), so I shall wait till they wake for input. I'm leaning towards repairing Weapons so we can fire back! That, or hanger bay.

Grrrr @ Xbox Live online. Seems I forgot my password. So I send a request for a new one. It takes DAYS! By the time I get home to click the link, the LINK EXPIRED! What? Grrr. Why does Microsoft have to make things so difficult?!?

Anything for a weird life.

omnis, check out the brute's page: [link]

they seem to have gotten a perk that hugely increases their HP, called Immortal. they also have next to no other stats, and even then you might very well have lost if he'd started pulling weapons earlier in the match.

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

BSG

I think repairing weapons sounds like a good idea.

How come the Destiny Deck didn't play into the last check?
