Feel free to. I've got no objection to including a model of the TOS Galactica in the game. But it simply can't be part of any serious nBSG plot line.

Speaking of not serious, maybe we could join forces with the FoTG dudes at some point and do a "TOS BSG vs Star Wars" mod :D

Nice model, but no need though.
I'm certainly not going to approve the appearence of Buck Rogers ships in Diaspora...well, maybe if "Lexx- the Darkzone" ships are also added. :p

Freespacepilot2010 Heres a link to download a tos bsg mod.It just doesnt have an old Galactica though.

Speaking of other series in game im in the middle of making a mini campaign set in the freespace 2 universe thats heavily inspired by the original BSG epiosde Experiment on Terra.Its about the fate of Earth which has it in a civil war with two sides going at it.The Eastern and Western alliances.However im only about 5% of the way done.

When Diaspora is released I may try and do a campaign thats also in the Freespace universe but is a continuation of the nBSG.A spoiler.The Shivans are Cylons.

By the way thanks for the link Hotdog.

Also please no Buck Rogers.Ive seen episodes of it on Hulu and its worse than Galactica 1980!

We weren't exactly serious about either Buck Rogers or SW in Diaspora :)

 :yes: , but even she, in her tight flightsuit, was not able to save the plot of most of the episodes.

Eh? What plot. I just watched it for the tight flightsuit or miniskirt. The only two recurring outfits. Twiggy was annoying as hell.

What was that noise Twiggy made?Tweedle tweedle tweedle?lol.Plus a lot of the scenes you could see the boom mike.And they were so cheap they used footage from BSG rather than making new ones.

 :lol:
me too actually, but the show could have been sooooooo much better if there was a halfway decent plot.
But hey, at least there have been some lolomgwtf moments, the guy with feathers on his head and shoulders for instance.


back on topic:

Has the Valkyrie been also retconned? The Original ( ep. "Hero" ) didn't has the spoiler-thing on the engine section, like the Valkyrie class vessel in Razor. Or is it a sub-class? Didn't check the BS Wiki, since most ( relativly spoken ) explantions there are just fan-fic or based on assumptions.
Would be cool to have both, though.

Wasn't it "boogie boogie".  I'm amazed the censors allowed the shape of his head, but it sums up the character.

Now, Erin Gray was the one redeeming feature of the show...  mmmm...

Surgeon General's Warning:

Asking newman about adding the rollbar to his Valkyrie is not conducive to living.  Assume it was something specific to it being docked and let the matter drop.  In the words of Yojimbo "a long life eating mush is best"

We saw the ship in "the plan" again without the rollbars. Actually, we saw multiple ships of the class there and none of them had it. So now we have the situation where every time the ship is in flight (as opposed to being in dock) the art department chooses not to use the rollbar version, even on the most recent BSG made (definitely made after "Razor" which featured the supposed rollbar variant). The only time we ever saw the ridiculous cocktail bar mounted on the engines was when the ship was in dock in "Razor". The way I see it the theory that it's some part of the dock or some engine diagnostic package they mount when the ship is docked makes most sense.
Secondly, that's the single most ridiculous looking detail put on a bsg vessel. I'm not having it on my ship :)
Also, what Slayer said.

So, no Valk with purple neon tubes along the undersides of the pods, chromed detailing and fluffy dice/Magic Tree air freshner hanging from the over-head DRADIS console, then? ;7

Who said that it was any bigger than the Pegasus? Hell who said it wasn't the same class as the Pegasus?
