- This page covers the resistance movement on New Caprica. For other meanings, see "Resistance".
The New Caprica Resistance is formed by Colonials to resist the Cylon occupation of New Caprica after President Gaius Baltar's surrender. The day the Cylons marched into New Caprica City, Starbuck vowed that they would "fight 'em until we can't" (Lay Down Your Burdens, Part II). (Ironically, Starbuck herself would be unable to participate in the resistance.)
Two months into the occupation of New Caprica, Saul Tigh, Galen Tyrol, and James Lyman are starting to organize, recruit members, and stockpile weapons for the struggling resistance. According to a report transmitted to Galactica another two months later, Tigh commands 1150 soldiers.
