My favorite attack is when Bats hangs upside-down from a gargoyle waiting for a goon to pass underneath and then snatches him up and wrings his neck.
You know, it's funny. We went to war never looking to come back, but it's the real world I couldn't survive.

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

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

D loves his cheap plastic batarang. He moved Spider-Man, Optimus Prime and Jay (as in & Silent Bob) to make it the centerpiece of our entertainment-center-top display.

and in the demo, an unlimited amount of the bat boomerang thingies.
That's not just the demo. Pretty much his whole arsenal is unlimited which is a smart play decision because having to traipse across the map to pick up supplies at the batmobile would be pretty bloody annoying.

Look at that, 1 card of each colour. Anyway:
Tally: 7 - 3 = 4. Fail. You have been tracked! A basestar appears in Sector 1; two civilian ships huddle at the rear of Galactica in Sector 4.
That concludes Roslinbot's turn. Dr Baltar's turn is about to begin.

If you want to get easy achievement point things in Xbox. Apparently Madden 2006 (with McNabb on the cover) is real easy to get all but two of the achievements. I'm a button masher when it comes to video games, and not very knowledgeable when it comes to football, and yet, in 2 times of playing, I got all but "win the super bowl" and "play 30 years of franchise".

Adama has submitted his orders:
Move to join Boomer in Weapons Control
Action: fire at the basestar
Adama passes on interrupts; no one else can play one, so let's roll.
Result: 2. Miss.
As Baltar is still in the Brig, he does not draw a Crisis Card. This concludes his turn.
