I was just wondering what the source for the figure 10 is; it appears unsourced with a "(?)" in [[Heavy Raider|the article proper]], so it should probably be mentioned there, as well. My justification for at least 5 is a count of the lights at the end of [[Scattered]] and the number of Centurions on Kobol guarding the SAM site. It seems like there might easily be room for more if they were packed tighter, but exactly 5 twice seems like it would indicate standard practice, at least. --[[User:CalculatinAvatar|CalculatinAvatar]] 23:31, 30 December 2005 (EST) | |||

Are the interiors of Raiders, Basestars, etc. truly "organic"? I got the impression that they were synthetic; machines so advanced on a microscopic level that the overall "machine" is a "bio-chemical machine" rather than "organic". I'm not sure on this so I don't want to make any "demands", but I would like to say that I'm worred that calling it "organic" would lead to confusion that they're somehow Cyborgs; I think they're more a step between purely mechanical Centurions and humanoid Cylons. Perhaps "bio-mechanical" is a better term? Discuss. --Ricimer
