Great powers
From Battlestar Wiki, the free, open content Battlestar Galactica encyclopedia and episode guide
The great powers are what Count Iblis claims destroyed his ship. When asked about them, Iblis is initially evasive, other than to scoff at the possibility of them being Cylons. When pressed by Adama, Iblis reveals that "there are greater and more infinitely dangerous powers in the universe than your Cylons and all their allies combined." It is unknown whether the powers are in fact the Beings of Light, or refer to other forces (War of the Gods, Part I).
