The '''Battle of Sector 12''' was an engagement that took place in the 10th year of the [[Cylon War|First Cylon War]].

==Battle==

The Battle of Sector 12 took place sometime within two days between the departure of ''[[Wild Weasel]]'' (Raptor 909) from the [[Galactica type battlestar|battlestar]] ''[[Galactica (RDM)|Galactica]]'' and its subsequent arrival by sublight to [[Sector 12]] near [[Cylons (RDM)|Cylon]]-controlled space, where they were to rendezvous with the battlestar ''[[Archeron]]''. 

== Aftermath ==
After detecting ''Archeron'' on [[DRADIS]], Lieutenant [[Coker Fasjovik]], Ensign [[William Adama|William "Husker" Adama]] and Doctor [[Becca Kelly]] discover the remains of ''Archeron'', with apparently no survivors. 

Shortly after this discovery, they are attacked by three [[Cylons (RDM)|Cylon]] [[Raider (RDM)|Raider]]s. Under orders not to engage the enemy, the Raptor crew attempt to evade the Raiders despite the Cylons' speed advantage.  Using the debris field as a maze, Adama successfully out maneuvers the Cylons, succeeding in destroying two enemy fighters. Under fire from the remaining Raider, Adama pilots the Raptor into the fuselage of ''Archeron'', finding the [[FTL]] drive intact and using it destroy the pursuing Cylon ship {{TRS|Blood and Chrome}}.
