Green-Arrow Will we get to see the Cylon War? 3 Apr 24 2010, 6:11 PM EDT by SkyThibedeau

It looks like there were only 3 or 4 years between the creation of the Cylons and their rebellion against humanity. Do you think Caprica will (or should) stick to the story of their initial development, or will the show eventually cover the Cylon War itself (which presumably is what prompts the Colonies to start building battlestars...)?
