			== Pre-War History ==

			Before the [[First Cylon War]], Djerba served as a popular winter resort destination for Colonials. The script reveals that the moon featured sleek, modern resort facilities including a Frank Gehry-like building with a swooping domed roof, perched dramatically on the edge of a cliff.<ref>''[[Blood and Chrome]]'' [{{fullurl:File:B&C Pre-Production Draft - 11-30-10 - Version 01.FDX.pdf\|page=72}} pre-production script dated 30 November 2010], pg. 71</ref> These resort complexes boasted greenhouse-like domes that sheltered indoor tropical paradises, complete with palm trees surrounding lagoon-like pools, creating an exotic contrast to the moon's icy exterior environment.

			The resort facilities were designed to provide luxury accommodations with features such as gas fireplaces in larger suites, well-appointed kitchens, and recreational amenities that attracted wealthy Colonial tourists seeking winter sports and exotic experiences.

			== Cylon Occupation ==

			After capturing Djerba early in the war, the Cylons converted the former resort facilities into strategic outposts and research installations. The moon served as a testing ground for Cylon biological experimentation, including the creation of cybernetic hybrid creatures that combined organic tissue with mechanical components. These experiments represented early attempts at developing the technology that would eventually lead to humanoid Cylon models.

			== Script Version Details ==

			The pre-production script for ''[[Blood and Chrome]]'' presents Djerba as having much more severe weather conditions and challenging terrain than shown in the final production. The script emphasizes the moon's extreme environment, describing survival challenges including navigating glaciers, avoiding deep crevasses, and weathering sudden blizzards that could trap travelers for extended periods. The detailed descriptions of the resort facilities, complete with frozen pools and frost-covered palm trees, serve as a haunting reminder of the war's impact on what was once a luxury destination.

	Early in the war, Djerba is captured by Cylon forces and converted to a strategic outpost and research base. Due to its location within Cylon-held space, it is lightly fortified by at least one [[basestar (RDM)\|basestar]] within [[FTL]] jump distance and a contingent of [[Cylon War-era Centurion\|Centurions]].

	Despite its relative lack of defenses, Djerba is considered pivotal in turning the war toward victory for the Colonials. Ten years into the conflict, a secret mission is launched from the Colonial "ghost fleet", led by the [[Orion ~~Class Battlestar~~\|battlestar]] ''[[Osiris]]''. Though ''Osiris'' is destroyed in [[Battle of Djerba\|battle]] with a Cylon baseship, the crew of [[Raptor]] ''[[Wild Weasel]]'' survives the campaign, crashing on Djerba and trekking on foot to rendezvous with [[Colonial Marines]] already operating on the moon. The crew are able to use the moon's automated communications array to ostensibly upload a virus to blind the Cylons, but in reality [[Becca Kelly]] uses it to upload the location of the "ghost fleet". The array is destroyed, but the information provided tricks the Cylons and helps make the [[Ghost Fleet Offensive]] a major victory.
