I see 2 different versions of the famed warship. However, both seem to have different technologies, which raises the question in my head: "Which is better as far as tech goes? And which is more believable?"
Now this is NOT a vs debate, as it is an honest question of which Battlestar Galactica, old or new, do we like better? I say I like the old one better, it has lasers while the new one has something called, "Kinetic Energy Weapons," but are they really the same? -deep in thought-
Which is better?

Re: Which is better?
I like the new one since it seems like a real living breathing warship. Maybe the most realistic ship we have ever seen in scifi.
What does defeat mean to you?
Nothing it will never come. Death before defeat. I don’t bend or break. I end, if I meet a foe capable of it. Victory is in forcing the opponent to back down. I do not. There is no defeat.

Continual damage, diverse crew. Realistic accommodation.
The only other scifi ship that comes close is the ship in Star Gate Universe.

Good point. Makes you actually think that our tech could ACTUALLY be based off of that!

I always found it interesting that Ancient and Gou'ald designs became so easy to understand that they can break codes or security within seconds.

No the ancient ship traveling the universe in SGU.

I like the look of the original better. The smoother, more silver skin.
Ugh... do not thump the Book of G'Quan...

Ahh... different from the Galactica crew too. The Destiny crew was not meant to be there.Teaos wrote:No the ancient ship traveling the universe in SGU.
