OT: Season 3 BSG

[Atrocities]

I just hope that at some point they opt for a story arc that takes them to a point where they find other colonial ships like the battle barge (Destroyers) or (Battleships) and gives the fleet some real teeth. At least one or two more ships should have statistically been able to escape. Perhaps another fleet of civy ships lead by a smaller escort or destroyer could be descovered. There are a few great story arcs that can be written to take advantage of "finding" other serviving humans.

I think they're far enough away from the colonies now that any chance of finding another ship will truly be exceptional. Pegasus was explained because she was hunting the basestars hunting galactica. Spoilers and RDM have repeated said that future finds like Pegasus will not happen.

Personally, I'd like a one-off, non-arc episode about another group of survivors returning to the nuclear annihilated colonies and finding something galactica's SAR team may have left behind in case other survivors show up telling them that there are more human survivors.

I would like to see other survivors as well, but you risk splintering the series. They got back to Anders to bring him into the fold last season, but I think they would be treading old ground.

**SPOILER**





I have seen that there will be a Cylon inside a base-star episode.

Ya, but new Capricca (sp) is a lot closer to the old colonies than you think. It was discovered during a rescue mission to Capricca. Also if a ship jumps, it can jump a great distance. So anything is possible.

Wouldn't most of the leser ships have been owned by the cylon "1337 h4x0r 474x"? If the peggy barely made it with it's fleet just cause it's abattle star, and scrapped her fleet for weapons ammo and crew. aAny lesser ship would have been obliterated I bet.

[Suicide Junkie]

Would not lesser ships have had a correspondingly smaller attack force directed at them so that more ships could be used against the battlestars?

Actually, New Caprica was reached with a cylon FTL drive. the show has established that the cylon's FTL drives have further range than Colonial systems. I seem to recall them saying that it would take galactica's SAR far more than 10 jumps to get to caprica.

I'm of the opinion that any further survivors and stuff being found be like how galactica finds a planet every 15 episodes or so right now. I think there are more survivors, but I really doubt RDM will feature them. We know atleast 15 other ships outside of Pegasus and the rag Tag Fleet survived (of course, Cain severely cut their chances by stealing their engines, supplies, fuel, crews... it goes on).

No actually it was reached by accident when a raptor got lost during one of the jumps toward Cappricca during the rescue mission.

[Azselendor]

Whoops, my bad. I ment to say Caprica was reached via a cylon FTL computer.

[Atrocities]

Yes, the toasters do have superior FTL. Lucky metal bastards.
