| Additional Information | |||
The "Wedge" type also known as a "Defender" type[1] is a support vessel in service with the Colonial Fleet by the tenth year of the First Cylon War. At some point during the War, one of these ships is reported destroyed by Cylon forces, and hidden away within Cylon controlled space. It later participates in a successful Colonial Offensive against the Cylons ("Blood and Chrome").
After the Fall of the Colonies, two of these ships escape with Galactica, though it is unknown if they share the same military role, as Galactica is initially the only known military vessel to have survived the attacks. However, at least one ship in the fleet, Adriatic, was known to be armed with limited ship to ship missiles, but this vessel was never explicitly seen (TRS: "Home, Part I").
These ships are later abandoned and scuttled, along with the rest of the fleet, after the discovery of a new world the Colonials later named Earth (TRS: "Daybreak, Part II").
Notes[edit]
- This ship appears to be based on a design created by a fan of the series, Todd Boyce. On his website where many other fan fiction renderings are hosted, he called the ship the "Defender".
- With some Reaver additions, the ship appears as a background vessel in the movie Serenity. The effects for both Serenity and Battlestar Galactica were produced by Zoic.
- Battlestar Wiki is not a fan fiction repository. However, the remarkable similarity between the artist's ship and its inclusion in the Re-imagined Series warrant mention in this encyclopedia.
