:The other battlestars were (presumably) destroyed by Cylons, and the small amount of Vipers is explained by the fact that A) the Galactica was being decomissioned on the same day of the Cylon attack, so many of its Vipers had been re-assigned; and B) all of its Mk. VII Vipers were destroyed by the Cylons because of the Cylon computer virus. Hope this helps.[[User:Kuralyov|Kuralyov]] 08:57, 27 Mar 2005 (EST) | :The other battlestars were (presumably) destroyed by Cylons, and the small amount of Vipers is explained by the fact that A) the Galactica was being decomissioned on the same day of the Cylon attack, so many of its Vipers had been re-assigned; and B) all of its Mk.

Hate to say it but the info about the videogame is wrong. The game itself ties into the new imagined series than anything else. Seeing as how it states the Cylons were created by man in the introduction, gives you reasons as to the war so on and so forth. The few deviations in the game from the TV show are because Moore changed a few parts of the script. When I can I'll edit the part about the video game and include several quotes from the game manual. The Galactica is much much older than 40 years old but no wear near 500. | |||
Revision as of 06:45, 17 September 2005
I noticed on the first episode of the new series after the Cylon attack, Starbuck was told that they had lost 30 battlestars. Starbuck replied "that's a quarter of the fleet". Does this mean that there are approximately 120 battlestars in the fleet? Also, if they had lost a quarter of the fleet, what has happened to the rest of the battlestars?
Another question I have pertains to the amount of Vipers aboard a battlestar. A landing bay is noted as being about 2000 feet long which is about the size of 2 aircraft carriers. Our present day aircraft carriers carry about 85 aircraft most of which are larger than a Viper. I would assume with landing bays that large, a bay can handle at least twice the 85 aircraft load of an aircraft carrier. Why does it seem that they only have 40 to 50 Vipers? I'm comparing an aircraft carrier with 85 aircraft to support it with a battlestar that is 4 times it's length and many times the bulk carrying about 50 Vipers? It doesn't make sense.
Thank you for your time.
