Battlestar? Where did this Battlestar designation come from? From the evidence it is clearly far too small and underpowered to be a battlestar. It also got its fighters from other ships and had to create a vacum in its hangar to let raptors in/out. It is also tiny compared to basestars and and completely outgunned. If anything this ship is similar to a frigate or destroyer, but a battlestar it is not. A much larger stronger ship the Loki is clearly identified as a heavy-cruiser and not a battlestar so this smaller ship is not either. VARGR 12:08, 23 November 2012 (EST)

"Battlestar" is on the patch. I've found a decent screencap from the last two episodes, which I'll upload now.
Also, there are "light" and "heavy" battlestars, as we've seen in the past between Galactica and Pegasus (heavy battlestar), and later Valkyrie (a light battlestar). -- Joe Beaudoin So say we all - Donate 12:11, 23 November 2012 (EST)
