The ship is the only surviving rebel basestar out of several that breaks away from the John Cavil's Cylon loyalists. The rest of the rebel fleet is ambushed by the Ones, Fours, and Fives far from a [[Resurrection Ship]], making their destruction permanent {{TRS|The Ties That Bind}}. | The ship is the only surviving rebel basestar out of several that breaks away from the John Cavil's Cylon loyalists.

The Rebel Baseship barely escapes Cavil's ambush, taking refuge in the relative safety of a nearby gas giant {{TRS|Faith}}. It falls under Colonial command when the rebel Cylons agree to Admiral [[William Adama]]'s authority, and is directed to rendezvous with [[The Fleet (RDM)|the Fleet]] after being located by the civilian vessel ''[[Demetrius]]'', however, a failure in ''Demetrius''' FTL engine causes the baseship to jump to the fleet alone, nearly colliding with several fleet vessels, and forcing ''Galactica'' to scramble its Vipers amongst the panicking civilian fleet | The Rebel Baseship barely escapes Cavil's ambush, taking refuge in the relative safety of a nearby gas giant {{TRS|Faith}}.

Shortly after, the baseship participates in an attack on the main Cylon [[Resurrection Hub]], jumping to it after the ship's [[Hybrid]] is brought back online. It is successful in rescuing a [[Number Three|Three]] before [[Battle of the Resurrection Hub|destroying]] the station {{TRS|Sine Qua Non|The Hub}}. The baseship joins the Fleet as they make the jump to [[Earth_(RDM)#Earth:_Home_of_the_Thirteenth_Tribe|Earth]] shortly after the battle {{TRS|Revelations}}. | Shortly after, the baseship participates in an attack on the main Cylon [[Resurrection Hub]], jumping to it after the ship's [[Hybrid]] is brought back online.

During the events of [[Gaeta's Mutiny]], President Roslin takes refuge aboard the basestar after fleeing ''Galactica''. The baseship in turn is ready to flee out of concern for its safety, however, Roslin persuades the Cylons to position themselves in the civilian fleet to prevent being fired upon. President Roslin is about to take the basestar and attack ''Galactica'', however, the mutineers are put down before a shot is fired from either vessel {{TRS|The Oath|Blood on the Scales}}. | During the events of [[Gaeta's Mutiny]], President Roslin takes refuge aboard the basestar after fleeing ''Galactica''.

Months after fleeing the burnt out remains of the Thirteenth Colony, the basestar is chosen as the new flagship after the order is given to abandon the crippled ''Galactica''. Acting Admiral [[Louis Hoshi]] is given command of the baseship (and the Fleet) after ''Galactica'' leaves for the Cylon [[The Colony|Colony]], in one last draw for the child, [[Hera Agathon]], while the baseship stays behind and maintains a watchful eye over the civilian fleet. When a habitable planet is found by ''Galactica'', the Colonials return ownership of the baseship back to the Cylons, who in turn, give the ship to the freed Centurions remaining on board. While the Colonials settle their new home, the baseship jumps away for parts unknown {{TRS|Daybreak, Part II}}. | Months after fleeing the burnt out remains of the Thirteenth Colony, the basestar is chosen as the new flagship after the order is given to abandon the crippled ''Galactica''.
