The day the Cylons march into [[New Caprica City]], [[Kara Thrace]] vows that they will "fight 'em until we can't" {{TRS|Lay Down Your Burdens, Part II}}. Ironically, Thrace herself would be unable to participate in the resistance. | ||
Two months into the occupation of New Caprica, [[Saul Tigh]], [[Galen Tyrol]], and [[James Lyman]] are starting to organize, recruit members, and stockpile weapons for the struggling resistance. According to a report transmitted to ''Galactica'' another two months later, Tigh commands 1150 soldiers. Resistance targets include New Caprican infrastructure, the [[Cylon Occupation Authority]], and the Baltar administration. | Two months into the occupation of New Caprica, [[Saul Tigh]], [[Galen Tyrol]], and [[James Lyman]] are starting to organize, recruit members, and stockpile weapons for the struggling resistance.

Tigh's plan is to use attacks to keep the Cylons off guard until ''Galactica'' can effect a rescue of the populations. This includes desperate acts like suicide bombings, which is condoned by some members, but vehemently opposed by former President [[Laura Roslin]]. Tyrol also begins to object after he learns that Tigh plans to target the city's market and the civilians there. Targets of such attacks are a graduation ceremony of the [[New Caprica Police]] and a power generation station. | Tigh's plan is to use attacks to keep the Cylons off guard until ''Galactica'' can effect a rescue of the populations.

Immediately prior to the escape from the planet, the resistance makes contact with a party dispatched from ''Galactica'' in [[Breeders Canyon]] and smuggles them into the city. They also rescue approximately 200 people from a mass execution at the [[Pergamus Flats]], among them Laura Roslin, [[Tom Zarek]] and [[Cally Tyrol]].

*In a somewhat ironic twist the three leaders, Saul Tigh, Galen Tyrol, and Samuel Anders, as well as supporter Tory Foster, are later revealed to be four of the [[Final Five|final Cylons]] {{TRS|Crossroads, Part II}}. Also ironicaly, the person who betrays them, Ellen Tigh, is actually the final Cylon. | |||
