[QUOTE]Originally posted by FawnDoo: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by B.J.: [qb] As for the new series, Sci-Fi's site mentions that Galactica was one of the 12 *original* battlestars, each representing one of the colonies. Somewhere I seem to remember hearing that Galactica represented Caprica - can't remember where, but I think it was in the series. From galactica.tv, it says that there were eventually 120 battlestars. I seem to remember hearing something like that in the mini's dialogue.[/qb][/QUOTE]The Galactica representing Caprica was mentioned in the remake miniseries, right at the start - I think you hear it being mentioned in the scene at the start where Starbuck is jogging through the corridors and you hear a lot of conversations as she moves through the various sections of the ship. I might be wrong in remembering where is it mentioned, but it definitely is. As for the 120 Battlestars thing, again if my memory serves I don't think the actual figure of 120 is given, but Adama refers at one point to the Colonies losing 30 Battlestars in the initial assault, to which Starbuck makes a reply along the lines of "That's a quarter of the fleet", giving us the rough estimate of 120 Battlestars. Of course we don't know if the fleet was all Battlestars or there were other dedicated destroyers etc (since the Battlestar seems roughly analogous to a battleship and carrier combined) but it does give us that upper number to work with. I wonder if season 2 will deal with finding one or more other Battlestars? FD [/QB][/QUOTE]
