There is a rank above Admiral, then? I wasn't sure about that.Srynerson wrote:It's bugging me that Billy or someone hasn't pointed out to Roslyn that she would presumably have the authority to promote Adama over Cain (to Grand Admiral). Not that Cain would honor it, of course, but it would probably drive a wedge further into the Pegasus crew by "heightening the contradictions" as it were.
Oh, and side note: those are some nasty marks on Pegasus Six's back.

The mystery ship's a spawn point!
Sorry, bad joke. OK, so it allows them to transmit their consciousness back to the Colonies so they can be uploaded into a new body.

Nitram, slightly high on cough syrup: Do you know you're beautiful?
Me: Nope, that's why I have you around to tell me.
Nitram: You -are- beautiful. Anyone tries to tell you otherwise kill them.

I decided to look it up, and Moore's blog places Admiral as the highest rank, so Cain'd still have seniority over Adama.Srynerson wrote:At least in real life navies the rank of Grand or Fleet Admiral is superior: Link trimmedThe Dark wrote:There is a rank above Admiral, then?
