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.

I think repairing weapons sounds like a good idea.

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

ThomasW beat me to it. I ran into a level 8 immortal with 320-ish points.

I tried 3 brutes of appropriate level on her, and only one could take her down.

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

BSG

It did. A total of six cards were played - three by the human players, one by Roslin, and two from the Destiny Deck.

Heh. Guess there can be only one, and my gal is IT! I killed that immortal! (Thankfully, he didn't use any of the heavy weapons, or it would have been lights out). Ya, I couldn't help but notice all other stats were lacking. But I felt brave with 'Fred, so I went for it.

Weapons Control is now repaired. Dr Baltar, apparently the Admiral is a bit pissed off that you're not helping with the repairs. Boomer's Crisis Card is:

Requested Resignation
Admiral's Choice

Admiral Valerii, when you're ready please post your choice.

Since you are cool with it, and it saves much needed cards, I'll be the Pradmiral. Option 2 please.

(I find it funny. I picked a charcter with a low chance of power. It feels like I've been Admiral a good deal of the game. Now I'm President. Crazy!)
