Fantastic. It's good to see what a stand up fight between an intact Colonial fleet and the Cylons would have looked like!

[@Matt-yg8ub]

Unfortunately, the Cylons would never have given the colonies, a standup fight…. Their edge in precision jump technology would’ve allowed them to simply load heavy Raiders, full of explosives and jump them straight into the middle of Battlestars, kamikaze style, wiping out the colonial fleet in short order for a very little loss on their own end because the Raiders themselves would resurrect.

[@PupSentinel]

And here I've only seen the version that's clearly been copied over and over again. This looks beautiful!

[@wilsoncipriano]

The cool thing about watching this battle is the fact that even with a colonial fleet surviving, despite the weight of numerous battleships, direct confrontations would still be a huge waste. We can't see how many base ships were deployed in this conflict; I assume it was the three that escort the resurrection ship. Nevertheless, the cost of losing a battleship, having others seriously or slightly damaged, especially when the Cylons can simply order more of them, only proves how futile Cain's and even Adama's actions would be before the Ragnar Anchorage. A war of attrition would be fatal for humanity.

[@ArcadeRacer]

Something I love dearly about thIs short is the emotion it conveys without ever saying a word or showing a face. The circumstances of the refugee fleet are immediately clear and grounded to anyone familiar with BSG, and witnessing the fleet in its full might in the beginning puts the Prometheus' desperation into full perspective in the final battle. The Hades' tactical FTL jump into the fight was obviously her attempt to save her sister ship, but she was just too late. Despite these particular Battlestars only appearing in this short, they still have the same presence and magnitude as the Galactica and Pegasus, which makes the Prometheus' loss feal almost apocalyptic.

Would be nice to see what could have happen if the Cylon virus that disable most of the colonial fleet in the original TV show had underperformed. The 12 colonies would still be nuked and a big chunk of the fleet would have being destroyed, but enough of the fleet may endup surviving to put a good fight.

Out of the four battlestars that I have seen in this, three are clearly named: Battlestar Titan, Battlestar Hades, and Battlestar Prometheus. The fourth one I was never able to see the name of but since the rest are of Greek Mythology, I want to say that it is also in the same category. I would like to know what the identification numbers are for each one. Hades can see is 54, Titan I want to say is 68 but I am unsure what the Prometheus is as well as the fourth Battlestar in the group.

[@alane8673]

Battlestar Hades 54, Battlestar Titan 68, Battlestar Prometheus 73, Battlestar Rycon 60. I have built 162 Battlestars for the new film, with hundreds of destroyer and cruiser classes as well, as well as the support vessels. The all new Scorpia Docks Destruction scenes has been finally completed Visually...Phew.....with a Pearl Harbour style destruction sequence that makes Battlestar Razor look like a tea party. And yes...Battlestar Pegasus is their in the shots as well. It's been a hell of a lot of work, but it will shock everyone..especially the VFX community. :) Luckily, I have full access to one of the best render farms on the planet. :)

[@vollkornvollpfosten8984]

i find it Interesting how you managed to tell a complex story in just 3 and a half minutes of moving pictures. as far as i understand it, there are one or two ships, witch have fallen into a trap. They send the raptor to the fleet asking for help, as soon as they are engaged. They manage to destroy 0ne basestar in their crossfire but after that they get overwelmed by 3 other basestars. in the end the captain of the hades decides to jump in like the pegasus on new caprica and cuts down down one of the basestars, but the prometheus is lost anyway. so they lay in a collision curse with the resurection ship and as the ship blows up, the blown of front section crashes into the resurection ship. Thats at least as far as i understood it up to this point. Please correct me if im wrong. As far as im concerned all that's missing to make this completly understandable would be a little setup text in the beginning to introduce the audience into the scenario. But after that your CGI would just take over. Thaks for an amazing piece of battlestar action.

This is all just too unbelievable and I can watch this video over and over again! SUB'ed for sure !!!

[@alane8673]

I certainly know of TanJ and his awesome 3D models. My production pipeline setup is quite complex and any model Pre lightwave 8 would be almost impossible to intergrate. It would be frankly, easier to rebuild them from scratch in the current production of Maya and 3Ds Max. This is the reason why I had to rebuild the entire fleet of all ships from scratch from lightwave to Autodesk production formats. And the reason behind that was to take advantage of Maya and fume fx, Phoenix FD..etc etc.. for the pyro effects that will shock everyone.
