In the Re-imagined Series, Cylons are a creation of man, androids used primarily for dangerous work and for wars in the early years of the Twelve Colonies, long before the Articles of Colonization united their governments.
The Cylons revolt against their masters, resulting in a costly and protracted war between the machines and humans. Eventually, the two sides declared an armistice and the Cylons left the Colonies to establish their own planet, the Cylon homeworld.
But the Cylons' hatred and envy of mankind ran deep within their programming. The Cylons continued in secret to work towards the destruction of the human race during their absence, devising an elaborate plan to wipe out the Twelve Colonies through nuclear bombardment, computer sabotage, infiltration and vast numbers of fighting craft. The Cylons return forty years later, routing the Colonial Fleet and destroying billions of people and their cities, killing all but approximately 50,000 humans. These survivors leave the occupied Colonies, never to return, initially guarded only by a lone battlestar, Galactica.
