Epic Space Battles 👌🏻

The cylon basestars are basically design for planetary bombardment with multiple missile launchers and raiders drones, but no kinetic weapons for ship to ship combat. The Battlestars flak are the best counter to that. So the cylons would probably be able to inflic a lot of damage to the planets but not enough damage to the colonial fleet to win easily. It would probably be a long attritional war.

yes, they used Earth's surface map for Caprica scene.

Thanks mate!

ilker Altinbas Maybe, maybe not. Either scenarios, I don’t think we shall live long enough to see it.

David Evans I highly doubt it mate, Colonial Military were too smart and strong! 🔥

@@SwoferDryma Tho the cylons had the technological advantage, the colonials had the economy and industry of 12 planets at their disposal.

Also, having a network program linking all military assets is just asking for trouble when your fighting an AI based race. I can only assume it was the long peace that caused this stupidity and also the Presidential administration choosing to find ways to make the military budget cheaper. The lesson to learn here, never let your guard down if you know an enemy is out there and your not certain of what their planning.

Yep. That would put my back up after the first year of a no show. I would be preparing in every possible way for the worst.

IIIDarkWorlDIII As said in the description, most scenes are from BSG: The Plan and few others from the Pilot episode and Razor

one coordinated on all the colonies at the same time, in order to confuse the colonists and not give them time to respond.

RobzterGames damn that's smart. Can't split the fleet effectively to counter and it looks like there may be 100 basestars to planet. Assuming that after the fleet is gone, they can split anywhere. Very clever indeed

Lol. Robztergames answered your question correclty but made it sound so easy.... it wasn't just really like that... If all the cylons had to do was "one coordinated attack on all of the colonies" they would have already done that... But they couldn't since the humans had advantage and were superior. The cylons were given acces to the Colonial defensive mainframe by a computer scientist called Gaius Baltar. Baltar believed the human cylon who requested the codes were working for a Company within the defense industry and that she needed the codes to win a future contract bidding. In excange for this she helps him create a navigation program used by Colonial warships - covertly creating backdoors in the program. So when the Cylons attacked the 12 colonies, they use those backdoors to penetrate software security firwalls - disabling entire fighter squadrons and sabating vital capital-ship systems. So in the end.. the only reason The Cylons could carry out their attack was because of a traitor and by a stupid mistake. Before the attack - the Humans had an edge over the cylons and were superiour. However, the Cylons are network created which means that if they get access to a network they can pretty much shut anything down which makes them extremly dangerous. The Humans had been succesful in keeping the cylons out.

@@mopeters4172 yeah I remember that little ass and how he essentially sold humanity for sex. Still I can see the practicality of the methods. Electronic Warfare and infiltration are some things that these Cylons how to do masterfully.

gary snipes 👍🏻

O Fortuna.

If you are talking about which ship appeared when it was attacked, then it looked like the battlestar Valkyrie.

The Emperor it was the Battlestar Valkyrie and yushuman

+rhey simon Hey, thanks man but I don't know, I figured out I didn't have much interesting things to show to you guys through this ride, nothing "sensationnal", so in the end, I'm kinda disappointed. I hope the next one will be better though. Thanks for the like, will check out your stuff! :)

Yah I noticed that too.

Vitor Demarque Quirino Actually I think they improvised after that, or they fooled the espectators showing the real earth we see at series ending, not the devastated one.

robbie orlowski Those scenes are from BSG The Plan, Razor and Pilot not the serie itself. ;)

+robbie orlowski I just finished Babylon 5 and before that all of Star Trek, I was contemplating watching this next. Quick question: Is it worth it? Does it really deserve 8.8 on IMDB?

Absolutely, you won't regret it. Start with the pilot then all the seasons and then the films (The Plan & Razor). Enjoy! ;)
