Most Iconic Battles Of Season 1 | Battlestar Galactica

[@GlamorousTitanic21]

We can all agree that despite her age and the fact that she was half armed/armored, Galactica was a beast in battle. SO SAY WE ALL!!!

Battlestars are vastly superior to Basestars, hence the need to diasble them completely to actually win the war.

SO SAY WE ALL!!

[@joesheridan95]

@@anamericancelt6534 Oh.. it wasn´t only the lack of maintenance, the much bigger problem was that she wasn´t build to last.... if i recall right, the shipyard has cut alot of costs to build her faster and cheaper for the war effort. But the problems were never solved because they could only be seen from places that were practically never used. From the outside she looked pretty well maintained for a 50 year old ship that had been at the end of a conversion to a museum, same goes for the areas and systems that were used everyday, but her core structure was the problem... and nobody found that out until Tyrols trip into her insides. But still: she held up really good for a ship with a fracked up construction. I really felt sorry that she was sent into our sun :( I loved that ship and it would have been great to see her as a museum piece in a future show.

Notice how despite Starbuck's protests she open fired right with him within 1 second. She always knew her duty; just interpreted it in her own unique way... occasionally.

[@MostlyPennyCat]

You can lodge a protest but orders are orders.

[@TheSniperGTO]

It showed the dichotomy of the two officers. Lee was now the CAG, but Starbuck was riding him for being too soft, stating he wasn’t their friend, he was the CAG, making it seem as if he couldn’t make the hard choices, and implying that she could. However, when it came down to brass tacks, Lee followed what was probably the most difficult orders any of them had ever received: blow up a ship filled with civilians. Lee quietly followed orders, and Starbuck protested the entire time. She was still a fighter pilot, and a professional, so in the end reflexes and training kicked in and she opened fire too, but it illustrated that Apollo wasn’t as weak as she thought, and perhaps Starbuck wasn’t as strong as she believed.

Just noticed a continuity issue with the Olympic Carrier. In one shot the Galactica is turning looking like it's about to get it's broadside ready to shoot the Olympic Carrier if needed. Then a following shot it's facing away.

[@ShannonCarter55]

It was a nasty habit of no continuity flow when it came to matching up CGI scenes. It only got worse as the seasons went on and they kept adding ships every few episodes to background shots. Season 1 added the sublight ships from the Miniseries in, then just kept adding and adding at the seasons went on. I counted at least 93 ships at one point despite dialogue from the Miniseries suggesting 50+ ships (40+ from Roslin's initial convoy of 60+), 33 indicating at least 63 ships and Galactica and Tigh's line indicating 60 odd ships in You Can't Go Home Again. The Farm retconned it to around mid-70s due to a line from Tigh about 24 ships being almost a third of the fleet.

@@assassinenzo1373 If you equalize tech (so it dosnt come down to who gives the most stupid values in canon), I would say the Viper's better maneuverability and range would swing the battle. They would drive off or blow up all the destroyers tie fighters. Between the capital ships, the destroyers shields and firepower, coupled with the fact Galactica's weaponry is mainly focused on anti-kinetic weapon defence, would give it the edge over Galactica, however once the destroyer loses its tie fighter screen, the vipers would make a pass of the destroyer and leave it aflame from stem to stern and reduce it to a smouldering husk in seconds.

[@danielc2701]

@@Debbiebabe69 Doubtful. The Viper's guns are only 30mm cannons, they don't have much penetration. I'd still think SW is going to have the edge here because their tech is so stupidly OPed.

[@Nine-Signs]

The Daedalus was a little beast I fondly remember. Would be real nice to see it in latest generation of graphics engines put to screen not mention the cameos, I mean Richard Dean Anderson is a retired man in his 70's but you can still imagine irate comedic phone calls to the base commander over the various phuckups of his new teams and as for Christopher Judge he hasn't aged a damned day and has more muscle now than 20 years ago as if it were possible. And then there is dear Amanda Tapping, and Michael Shanks, again both looking great, but as to Amanda, I am fairly certain she would give her left leg to get together again on Stargate with the others. She was heartbroken when they announced they were cancelling the show, not due to bad ratings, but due to MGM's financial phuckups where it took masses of lucrative IP and drove them into the ground via short term and/or idiot decisions that compounded into multi billion losses. Stargate was about the only damned thing making them any bloody money at the time, but the losses to the rest killed SG1, Atlantis, and Discovery in the end. Recorded off camera and in photos, Amanda was sobbing her eyes out on the last day, and there is a very barbed comment in one of the episodes towards the end of the last season that is clearly aimed at MGM for not having any respect for the franchise. The bosses on top sent the cancellation notice down to them while they were all at a party for the 200th episode.

[@DavideWernstrung]

A couple of thoughts as someone who’s never seen the show but loves science fiction: the fake swearing is making me laugh so much “Oh Frack Me!!!” “What the Frack?!” I like that they made some attempt to include elements from real space flight like the miniature thrusters, but they’re doing the classic cardinal sin of presenting space with an UP and a DOWN and every ship is in the same orientation - which doesn’t make any sense in a space battle. The way the ships move makes no sense - at one point she literally turned her ship around and went back the opposite direction she was travelling in. Every ship in space is moving in orbit to the closest planetary body… space flight is about adjusting the orbits - not just a glorified aeroplane I like that they muted the sounds whenever showing things from outside the ship. Of course in real life there is no sound at all but it’s good they muted it at least as things like Star Wars and Star Trek and all those never bother to do that I have to admit that the dog fights between the space ships are epic… really well choreographed. They also used the budget nicely with all those close ups of peoples faces

There should have been. There were on United 93 when fighters were scrambled to take it down. This show was about the hard realities of war.

[@stickiedmin6508]

I think the ambiguity works better. The sheer weight of that doubt and moral uncertainty was a part of what kept the tension so high. "Did we commit an atrocity? Did we actually save the fleet, or did the Cylons successfully bait us into killing our own? Are we heroes or monsters?" Heavy stuff.

Never understood the writing for Starbuck here. Starbuck is a highly trained career military officer and can clearly see how little time there is before the ship reaches nuking distance of the fleet, there is no time to go on board the Olympic and check and first duty is to the fleet, needs of the many over few. They wrote her dumb here to act as an emotional leverage for the scene, thankfully they didn't do it too often.

[@stickiedmin6508]

It's all too easy to second guess decisions, or questions like that when you have the benefit of hindsight the characters couldn't *_possibly_* have had at the time. They had no way to know whether The Olympic Carrier represented a genuine threat, or was just another example of the Cylons screwing with them, trying to bait them into killing their fellow survivors. We should also keep in mind that both pilots, at that point, had not only been awake and dealing with enormous stress and pressure for a dangerously and unhealthily long time, but were also under the influence of stimulants (probably something similar to amphetamine or methamphetamine) which were specifically pointed out to be screwing with their heads. Imagine a sniper (from The FBI's Hostage Rescue Team, or something similar) suddenly being ordered to shoot the hostages that their team was supposed to save. In a more direct comparison, imagine pilots patrolling the airspace around their aircraft carrier who are suddenly ordered to shoot down a stray 747 (which probably still has hundreds of innocent civilians on board), or to sink a passenger liner. You can't honestly expect that someone in that kind of position would ignore their doubts and questions, and obediently pull their trigger, can you? They didn't write her "dumb" - they wrote her human.

[@danielc2701]

@@stickiedmin6508 Oh it was a confirmed threat. Even if they don't kill the carrier having it ram the Galactica is going to get it killed anyway AND destroy the Galactica to boot.

Vipers can function in atmosphere so they need an altimeter... And gravity acts WELL beyond the planet so altitude can be recorded well into deep space. As for the horizon that is a simple one - it is the plane of the galactic disc. This makes a clearly defined Z axis, and 'up' and 'down refer to 'away from' and 'towards' the galactic plane (so when you cross it, up becomes down and vice versa)
