@kevintran5901 2 года назад

@@morgan97475 the lesser armor is mostly on the Galactica and she was being converted to a museum ship so it didn’t need its armor. As for the less guns, if you saw Jupiter Mark-II class design in DeadLock, it had less guns when compared the Blood & Chrome design, in my headcanon, I believe that the Galactica and the Jupiter class design in Blood & Chrome are a late war refit and once the war ended, all post war Jupiter-Class class that came after were built with the original MK-II design.

@ItsJustVirgil 2 года назад

I wonder if any pirates or privateers during the interwar years used kitted out 1st Gen raptors? With their firepower I’d certainly believe it. Honestly since BSG is a universe where kitbashed ships (in-universe kitbash at least, with stuff like the Blackbird and the garbage ship that was converted, etc etc) are so popular, a super-raptor combining parts of all three design ages would be pretty feasible to see if we got the chance.

@uppishcub1617 2 года назад

I was actually thinking of a fanfic involving something like that. The story follows some space pirates shortly before and during the first few weeks of the second cylon war. They survive the attack because they were already hiding from the colonial fleet. After the attack, now they're still living as pirates. Raiding the Cylons for supplies and jumping away before a basestar can arrive.

Wish we could of seen more vehicles other than Vipers and Raptors. You'd think they'd have a diverse range of aircraft like heavy bombers or fighter bombers.

@knickohr01 2 года назад

I think the problem is, that the producers of newer BSG related content (like Deadlock) are afraid to use ships that aren't related to the ships in the series. So we'll get Raptors and Vipers but nothing new. However, in theory it is possible that other ships existed (a navy with one kind of fighter and one kind of support doesn't really make sense) and they could just use the argument that none of the other ships were in use on the Galactica and Pegasus at that time which would give a reason, why they were not in the TV series.

@hoojiwana 2 года назад

Deadlock did introduce the Sweeper (anti-missile defence) and Taipan (anti-capital ship fighter in a DLC) for the Colonials. - hoojiwana from Spacedock

@FortuneHunters 2 года назад

@@knickohr01 A big reason why the Colonial mostly uses viper is due to a Battlestar's fighter launch tube. It severely limits the shape of a space craft you can design. Too many different fighter craft and you have problem to rapidly deploy them. Not counting the compatibility requirement for newer battlerstar (Pegasus can still launch old Mk2 vipers). But they do added a new launch tube shape to mag launch raptors on the Mercury (Pegasus) battlestar.

@leodouskyron5671 2 года назад

@@darthXreven The unsung hero is the one that does not get the glory. You can’t BSG you hear about the galatica, vipers and the Pegasus and eventually the Raptor comes up eventually. That is what being unsung is. Unsung is not the same as unknown or unseen - it is under appciated. It was the final ship flown by Adana, was used in his Adana maneuver. It’s crew was killed and still fired the pivotal shot over the Cylon colony. But it doesn’t get the respect other ships get in general. You even saw that in the BSG web app.
