In MyBrute news - there's a tendency to list the pets - dog, wolf, bear - as good, better, best. I actually think that given the right circumstances the wolf is far better than the bear. Check this out from today's matches - [link]
Dude, you are SOOoo lucky that bear didn't attack more. When they are both in full attack, they do about the same damage, only the wolf gets several small attacks, and the bear one big one. The wolf is pretty good at dodging, the bear, nsm. The bear has a TON of hit points, about 2-3x the wolf. That is the big advantage.
Yeah, I know that, but the bear is slow and I assume the speed of your pet's attacks are dependent on the agility of your opponent. Also, the bear did try to attack more but the Brute countered him.
I can help a little on the skill check.
BSG
Pradmiral Tigh has already chosen the skill check. You can send me COs for your play into the check if you want.

BSG
Maybe the Raiders knocked out Apollo's comm system?
BSG
More like I didn't have a chance to check b.org before work this morning. Didn't realize everyone was waiting on me. I play 1 card. Insent, BT.
BSG
With COs, that brings us to:
Destiny:
2 cards
Apollo:
1 card
Chief:
1 card
Zarek:
3 cards
Helo:
no cards
Starbuck:
no cards
Tigh:
Pradmiral Tigh, you may finish the check.
BSG
I stick with what I said, I have no desire to brig anyone and with 5 cards played I think we're good and safe. If we're not, blame destiny.
I play no cards.
BSG
Results are in!
Yellow 1
Yellow 2
Green 1
Green 2
Green 2
Purple 1
Purple 3
Tally:
8 - 4 = 4. Fail! There's going to be a brigging. Members of the crew, express your shock and surprise as Pradmiral Tigh picks convicted criminal, former President Zarek, to savour the hospitality of the Brig.
Let's deal with the rest of the card.
Cylon:
raiders. The last raider shoots, forlornly, at Apollo.
Die roll:
1. You can tell his heart isn't in it.
Jump Prep:
yes. You have reached your first jump! I'm sending a choice of destinations to the Pradmiral. Pradmiral Tigh, when you're ready please post your choice.
