After egressing from the storm zone, Tigh tells Adama that a nearby star cluster will allow for varied opportunities for orbital concealment, so that the Fleet may lie low and resupply—and for a possible three-point strike against their pursuers, should they need to fight. However, Tigh and his damage control team return to ''Ariadna'' to address the engine issue, while Adama enlists the assistance of Dr. [[Madusa]] due to Adama's desire to abdicate command of the Fleet. In doing so, he feels that Tigh's the backbone of the Fleet in his role as executive officer, and that Tigh is far too much a warrior and not enough of a statesperson to be the commander, a belief that makes Adama feel like he's standing over judgment of his loyal friend ({{comics|vol2|10}}).

[[File:BSGv2 11 - Tigh's Sacrifice.png|left|thumb|800px|Col. Tigh tells Capt. {{alt|Apollo|TOS}} to abandon the defense of ''[[Ariadna]]'' and defend the rest of {{alt|the Fleet|TOS}} ({{comics|vol2|11}}).]]
As the ship can no longer be nursed back to working order, its crew and passenger compliment are evacuated during the [[Defense of Ariadna|defense of ''Ariadna'']]. As Tigh and his repair crew are cut off from the last evacuation shuttle, he and his crew are willing to sacrifice themselves by turning the craft into a bomb and using it against the single {{alt|basestar|TOS}} pursuing them. Fortunately, Adama recovers his confidence, buoyed by the sacrifice of his friend, and brings ''{{alt|Galactica|TOS}}'' herself into direct confrontation with the baseship. This permits a rescue shuttle to recover Tigh and his contingent, and ''Ariadna'' gives its life for the Fleet — without any further human sacrifice ({{comics|vol2|11}}).  
 
As the ship can no longer be nursed back to working order, its crew and passenger compliment are evacuated during the [[Defense of Ariadna|defense of ''Ariadna'']]. Tigh and his repair crew are cut off from the last evacuation shuttle, becoming resolute in their willingness to sacrifice themselves by turning ''Ariadna'' into a bomb and using it against the single {{alt|basestar|TOS}} pursuing them. Fortunately, Adama recovers his confidence, buoyed by the sacrifice of his friend, and brings ''{{alt|Galactica|TOS}}'' herself into direct confrontation with the baseship.

Tigh assumes command of ''Galactica'' following Adama's incapacitation due to transit through a mysterious [[black hole]] ({{comics|vol3|1}}). During this time, Tigh participates in deliberations over {{alt|Lucifer}}'s request for sanctuary against the [[Meclons]]. Despite his distaste for the Cylons, he coordinates efforts on defense between Lucifer's {{alt|Cylons|TOS}} and the [[Colonial Warrior]]s, including {{alt|Baltar|TOS}}'s efforts to integrate Cylon programming into {{alt|Viper|TOS}}s ({{comics|vol3|3}} & {{comics|vol3|4|short=y}}).
