does it have any large weapons, or just lots of small point defence turrets ?

Based on the miniseries (Just screened here, and I am addicted already ) I think it'll have nukes for ship to ship.

Omni, cut out triangles on the landing pods, so theyre lit properly for the LOD change, you know, where the opening is, you may even want to consider putting a rectangular hole through the pod.  Imagine that youre approaching Galactica from the front from a high LOD to a low LOD and from LOD2 to LOD1 or whatever, youre suddenly able to see through to the other side of the landing pod when it stops being a texture and starts being the landing pod.  or from the top, you'd be getting closer, and it'd be lit like a flat plane, then you cross the LOD border and it becomes lit like its supposed to be lit.

shouldnt take too many polys, just cut out where that texture is, maybe put a rectangular hole in it, so you can see through on approach from really far away

1.2km (at a minimum)has my vote, though I wouldn't be surprised if it ended up being larger eventually... Rememebr kiddies just like in the old series the vipers launch at an angle out the sides of the landing pods. Measure how long the tracks are plus the angles and you got the size of the bay needed , also on screen support is CANON, not book numbers. If it looks like ****e in game that's the developer's fault. If it looks good in game but people scream about canon "book" numbers then that's their fault for being anal and ruining our gameplay enjoyment...

I got that problem with hundreds of ships including Trek, Did you know the delta flyer is too big to go in and out of the bay it's stored in? One of MANY examples where a "reasonable" person will compromise a bit...  Same thing with the Defiant, it's own shuttle (correct sized with visuals) can't fit through the hatch on the botom cause the book numbers are too small.
