Counterstrike pre-air discussion/speculation thread spoilers

[LORD MONK]

What I don't understand... that weapon, when calibrated to kill living beings, kills everything on the planet AND can extend it's reach through the Stargate. How did the Jaffa use it to target an Ori planet without killing everyone on Dakara?

Magnets.

Magnets calculated to the numbet 42.

C'mon, why'd you have to give us all the answer?

[Pharaoh Atem]

Spoiler:

feel free to add and PLEASE USE SPOLIER TAGS

[Cameron Mitchel]

It's not only you. I've experienced the same.

same here. obviously from the promo, I take it they blow it up cuz I see Mitchell with a detonator( for the C-4), or Adria spares the ship.

[Dutch_Razor]

Spoiler:

The jaffa will "massmurder" Ori followers and of course SG1 thinks it's a bad idea.

What a crap!

Just like that "I dont want a jaffa to die for me", we are killing like 30 jaffa every episode!

[Prior_of_the_Ori]

Spoiler:

This isnt in the spoilers but i suspect that this attack will simply force the Ori to attack Dakara directly rather then wait.

Oh and we will be seeing some kind of amulet that Adria wears that protects her in some shape or form.

And lastly, Adria alone versus Jaffa...i pity those Jaffa....

[Dark Falcon]

Spoiler:

The Jaffa are going to use the weapon
on Dakara to wipe out entire planets controlled by the
Ori. Yet, in the process, they also kill innocent planetary
natives. But if we look at the Ori from the perspective of
the Jaffa, the Jaffa are taking desperate measures to fight
back against the Ori. At least the Jaffa even have a way of
fighting back against the Ori. With this in mind we can all understand
the title of the episode. An alternate title could have been
"Desperate Measures", but that was already taken in Season 5.

If many Ori followers are going to be killed in this episode, then
maybe the Ori threat in the Milky Way galaxy will be reduced...
to a small extent.

As for Adria, her powers should be much stronger than in
"Flesh and Blood". The Spoilers say that she has telekinetic
powers and is cold and heartless. I can't wait to see how
Daniel and Vala confront her.

I'm impressed to see that in the trailer for
"Counter Strike", I saw Mitchell holding a detonator
for a bomb, meaning that there's going to be plenty of
explosions in this episode. I hope that more Ori ships
blow up in this episode, because I've been looking forward to it
since...May. I also have just wanted to get back at the Ori since
"Camelot".

sorry guys (and any gals) for noticing this, but whatever that *thing* is on her dress ~ is in a rather peculiar spot... be it a decorative pin or sash, it certainly ends or sticks itself in a spot that doesn't need to be noticed. (yah think?? the *seductive* power of the Ori a bit perverted?)

Morena doesn't need that kind of dressy attention. She'd get it without such dangly things added on.

What would you prefer? Princess Leia's bikini?

Spoiler:

Well from Camelot we found out that four Ori Battleships made it through the Supergate. One was destroyed around the same Supergate which got rerouted and thus the Ori entryway into the galaxy has been stopped for now. With Counterstrike we find another Ori ship that is intact but its crew are killed (except for the lovely Adria). So if this ship is destroyed or captured (doubt the second one) then that would leave only two more Ori Battleships left unless another Supergate connection is made. Regardless, I think even two ships are enough to do a lot of damage.

Me too we got arses kicked in Camelot. I can't wait to see Adria against the Jaffa they are so screwed!

I'd join the Ori if she dressed in that!
