Topic: Starmada Stats for BSG

I'm new, and I know this has been asked before. I spend sometime searching the old post for information on Battlestar Galactica stats and found some by Lone Gunman and Court Jester (?) I think.

Anyway, whatever help you could give me would be , well...helpful.

Thanks

Re: Starmada Stats for BSG

I posted a copy of the ones I'm using in my campaign in the designs section. What I think you'll find most useful are the number of batteries and their approximate arcs (based on photos I could get).

Effectively, Galactica's batteries are: 4 dual-barrel mounts in the "nose", and 2 groups of 4 dual-barrel turrets on the top (8 total) -- (some show an equal amount on the belly). Add Anti-fighter and point defense as needed.

Pegasus' loadout is a little more complicated: 4 dual-barrel mounts in the "nose", (2 or 3?) dual-barrel mounts along the angled sides of the front, 2 dual-barrel mounts each on the front and back of the hangar pods, and three on the outside edges  (7 per pod, 14 total). Add Anti-fighter and point defense as needed.

Cheers.

Re: Starmada Stats for BSG

Edit: Should have visited the Battlestar Wiki - would have made things easier...

Galactica vital stats: 24 twin-turrets (according to the wiki) - I've managed to break it down into: 8 each on the top and bottom (I give them 4x each of AC, BD, CE, DF arcs), 4 at the very front of the nose (G, AB, or 2x A & 2x B arcs), and then on a lucky image I found the other 4 turrets, 2 each on the sides of the front (I'd say 2x AH and 2x BI because the flight pods get in the way). 514 (?!) Anti-fighter batteries. Approx. 80 vipers, 'numerous' Raptors.

Pegasus vital stats: 34 twin turrets (according to the wiki) - 2x front, 2x back, and 3x outside edge of each of the flight pods (2x AC, 2x BD, 2x CE, 2x DF, 3x C (or HJ), 3x D (or IK)), 6 along each of the edges of the front nose (6x AC, 6x BD), and 8 in the front of the nose - 4 turreted (2x A & 2x B, or 4x AB) and 4 fixed forward (4x G). 50 Raptors, 200 Vipers. Unknown amount of anti-fighter batteries.
