Best scene in The Plan was the shot of several battlestars going into battle over Caprica. I am not certain, but I think these BSs are different from any we saw in the series. They looked even more bad-ass than the Pegasus.

No there’s actually two times ya get a look at them. One; in Razor, when the ship yard gets attacked. Two; when Adama has a flashback to when he commanded the Valkyrie. They are bad-ass.

Zagon:Help me out here. Are you saying that Valkyrie and the 2 BS shown in the battle scene in The Plan are all of the same class? I could be totally wrong, but the 2 BS in The Plan looked larger than anything they had shown b4, including Valkyrie and Pegasus. I admit that the scene in Razor at the shipyards went so fast that I don’t recall what those other BSs looked like.

Those ships are the same as the Valkyrie, and they are smaller than both Pegasus and Galactica. Though they are very similar to Pegasus, there’s about 500m difference, let alone the “valkyrie” class is a thin stealthy ship. Agreed Razor did go fast, the only way i could tell was the nose of the ship.

Thanks for clearing that up, Zagon. Can I ask you one more thing: is there any BS class more powerful than the valkyrie class? Maybe the flagship of the fleet, the Atlantia?

@RScottus: I’d be tempted to kill if they offered the ultimate prequel: “Kobol-Foundation of the Colonies”. I’ve got the first Caprica DVD, and having a 16 yo kid at home, I can understand things much more. LOL

@kwnnosify: According to Bear McCreary it’s the Gayatri Mantra sung by Raya Yarbrough. oá¹? bhÅ«r bhuvaḥ svaḥ tat savitur vareá¹?yaá¹? bhargo devasya dhÄ«mahi dhiyo yo naḥ pracodayāt One Translation:”We meditate on the effulgent glory of the divine Light; may he inspire our understanding”
