Battlestar Atlantia

Atlantia was a battlestar serving in the Colonial Fleet following the First Cylon War. When the Cylons launched their surprise attack against the Twelve Colonies, the Atlantia survived the initial assault and with the destruction of Picon Fleet Headquarters, Admiral Nagala took personal command of the Fleet, basing himself on the Atlantia. During a subsequent engagement, the Atlantia was destroyed by Cylon forces.
