The reptilian Cylons allowed themselves to be overcome by their own technology (War of the Gods, Part II) upon the creation of the Imperious Leader (Experiment in Terra Telemovie). The robotic Cylons became an organized war machine bent on exterminating life in the galaxy after the creation of the Imperious Leader, who had a slight error in its programming (Experiment in Terra Telemovie). [1] Despite the fact that the reptilian Cylons had long since been wiped out, their robotic creations still bear their name (Saga of a Star World).


Saga of a Star World, Experiment in Terra (TV movie)

  1. Count Iblis's appearance and his subsequent encounter with Lord Baltar in the Prison Barge's brig suggests (without further substantiation) that the revolt of the robotic Cylons was organized by Iblis over a thousand yahren prior to the Cylon holocaust of the Twelve Colonies (War of the Gods, Part II). Given that his voice patterns seem to have been imprinted into what Iblis called "machine Leader" (War of the Gods, Part II) and the apparent onset of the Leader's creation causing the slaughter of both the original Cylons and all human life in the "star system" (Experiment in Terra Telemovie), this connotation seems to have been further substantiated.
