Students Compete For Robot Crown

Students Compete For Robot Crown is a The Caprican News article written by Sharon Edmonson. It was printed in Martius 21, YR42.
== Story ==
It's that time of year again! Local university students will strap on their thinking caps and descend on the city this weekend as Caprica University holds its third annual University Robotics Competition (URC). 
The goal of the URC is to encourage students to solve engineering and design problems in a fun and exciting way. URC founder Marlon Reiner says he hopes that, "Competitions like these inspire students to pursue careers in science, technology, math, and engineering." 
Qualai University will attempt to defend their win from last year but they'll face some stiff competition. The schools competing for the coveted Best Robot Award are:
Caprica University
Apollo University
Qualai University
Caprica City University
12 Colonies Technical College
Delphi University
Cloverdale College
Tauron University
Apollo University is said to be fielding two teams in this years competition because of a recent donation that boosted the funding of their computer science department. Building materials for the competition are being supplied by Graystone Industries and The Vergis Corporation, co-sponsors of the event. The event will be held in CU's gymnasium and it's free and open to the public.

Stun

The colloquial stun device and setting are common tropes in genre entertainment, with its usage in both the Original Series and its spin-off Galactica 1980 offering no exception.
== Original Series ==
The first usage of the stun setting occurs in when Michael exits Lunar Avion, using his stunner against Reese before falling into unconsciousness himself due to Galactica's atmosphere.
Later, Colonial laser pistols are seen with a stun setting, as Starbuck uses his pistol after he is intercepted by a group of Nationalist forces upon landing on Terra. The stun setting is a wide-field effect, where one blast is able to stun a group of people effectively . 
== Galactica 1980 ==
Likely due to its children-friendly time slot, Galactica 1980's laser pistols were often set to stun when using them against people, typically humans. The first Earthlings to be stunned, chronologically speaking, are a group of Nazis in 1944. The first "friendly" human to be stunned is Major Stockwell, who Lieutenant Dillon stuns en route to destroying Xaviar's enhanced prototype V2 rocket. Dillon later forgets to change his pistol from stun to a more destructive setting, forcing him to first one last shot (correctly) to destroy the rocket after it is launched . 
The effects of a stun tend to vary by person: some people suffer only a mild headache, while others are disoriented or put into a form of coma. Of further note, some people are frozen in place when stunned like Jack Archer or Valerie Thompson, while others crumple to the ground like Stockwell. 
Nurse Valerie Thompson recites a portion of a television manual after being stunned by Troy , while a higher setting has a more devastating effect, notably when Colonel Jack Sydell is struck by a blast from Xaviar's laser derringer when fleeing Troy and Dillon. Colonel Briggs notes that Sydell's brain "is someplace else" in a conversation with Chief Clifford, prompting an acerbic retort .
Weapons on stun can also interfere with electronics, as noted when Troy and Dillon are quick to fire upon a jukebox in Maggies Truck Heaven diner .
Stunner

A stunner is a Terran electronic device capable of temporarily incapacitating a person.
Michael uses one against Reese aboard Galactica's landing bay after exiting Lunar Avion, discovering that the ship had been intercepted .

Sun Airways

Sun Airways is a Colonial transport system operational at the time of the Fall of the Twelve Colonies. 
Giana O'Neill had been under their employ on Caprica as an aeronautical engineer who performed safety inspections of their craft. After becoming a deckhand aboard Galactica, O'Neill comments to Galen Tyrol that she would ground craft for potential failures like those she saw on Raptor 702. 
After witnessing the awkward conversation between Tyrol and Sharon "Boomer" Valerii, O'Neill pointedly asks Tyrol how long he's been seeing Valerii, noting that "her old job" had been replete with "office romances" .
== Notes ==
* Given O'Neill's presence on Caprica, and the fact that she noted her last inspection occurred immediately prior to the Fall in a conversation with Tyrol, it can be inferred that Sun Airways had corporate holdings on the colony.

Super basestar

The super basestar, as termed by Major , is the newest capital ship in Cylon war machine as introduced in . 
Its introduction to the Colonials' rag-tag fugitive fleet comes after yahrens of respite, and is revealed to be part of a larger plan to ensnare and decimate the remnants of humanity by exploiting their desire to locate . 
== A Dangerous Fleet Killer ==
Major and two newly-minted , Neats and Zurel, discover the super basestar in orbit of a planet whose coordinates are alleged to be Earth's, as divined by Countess Sephoni. This results in the first direct and disastrous altercation with the Cylons, unmasking their renewed offensive against the survivors (). 
Against Commander 's explicit orders, Captains and bring Countess Sephoni aboard a captured , so that she may divine access codes to allow infiltration into the super basestar to rescue Apollo, whom the Cylons rescued and nursed back to heath (-). 
By rescuing Apollo the Fleet became imperiled, as the super basestar was able to locate and launch its ambush of the Fleet, which ends with Sephoni divining a weakness that circumvents the ship's overlapping shielding and allows Apollo to destroy the ship with a fusion missile ().
== Specifications ==
The ship contains multiple phalanxes of , far in excess of standard s, and are stowed on racks that allow the ships to be hung for rapid deployment (). 
As with all Cylon technology, the ship can be controlled from any point within due to its unified operating system, allowing Apollo's rescue party to enter in command instructions into the ship's data core. This exploit allows the rescue party to escape ().
For reasons unknown, the ship features life support and gravity that allows humans to exist without need for individual support equipment or spacesuit, as well as medical labs capable of restoring biological beings' health, as was done with Major (). 
== Notes ==
* The racks holding the phalanxes of within the ship's many bays are nods to the Re-imagined Series' Resurrection Ship design.
* The super baseship is a mash-up of not only the standard baseship (found center mass) used in the Original Series, but with the original Ralph McQuarrie "spinning top" designs planted upon the top and bottom of the baseship in the center.

Supreme Commandant

The Supreme Commandant is the military and civilian leader of the fascist Eastern Alliance of Terra.
Under his leadership, the Eastern Alliance subjugated many of Terra's colonies and exterminated life on at least one planet, Paradeen .
As part of a decisive strike against the Nationalists, he lead its' president, Arends, to believe that he wanted peace, going as so far as to sign a treaty to that effect. The treaty was dismissed and plotted a massive strike which would annihilate the Nationalists and those within the Alliance's own borders who were undesired. Those extremely loyal to the cause were provided with underground bunkers to survive any retailiatory attacks prior to the strike.
The Commandant's strike was thwarted by the battlestar , forcing the Commandant to consider the peace treaty .

Susan Futterman

Susan Futterman was the director of Standards and Practices at ABC from 1976 to 2006 CE, during the tenure of the Original Series and its successor, Galactica 1980.
Her stepfather, Frank Perls, was an art dealer in Beverly Hills; Perls' brother had his own gallery in New York.
Owing to Futterman's position at the studio, she clashed with various creatives over the course of her 3 decade tenure. She was described by illusionist and author Jim Steinmeyer as "stern and schoolmarm-ish, with her hair parted severely in the center and owlish horned-rimmed glasses."
== Criticisms ==
Futterman ran afoul of Glen A. Larson, particularly during the run of Galactica 1980. The numerous jokes about Arnie's meatballs were peppered into the two-part episode "The Night the Cylons Landed," as a result of her belief that they were lewd. In addition to Larson's issues with Futterman, she was not fondly remembered by 1980 story editors Allan Cole and Chris Bunch; Cole being the more diplomatic of the two, notably when he told her "that they ought to open every episode of the show with an "educational" tag that read: 'Why aren't you little bug snipes watching 60 Minutes.'" Cole noted that she agreed with that proposal. 
Other creatives ran afoul of her, with Jim Steinmeyer noting her intense interest in a Doug Henning special of the 1980s.
In 1994, Dr. Jay Gordon's comments regarding the terminal effects of drugs and alcohol being marketed to children were censored by Futterman's group on a broadcast of the March 9, 1994 episode of the daytime talk show Home. Gordon believed Futterman solely responsible, with Home's executive producer Woody Fraser initially overriding her decision to censor Gordon―one of many times he sparred with Futterman on that show.
Fraser criticized Futterman's censorship as being driven by advertising, noting "Susan Futterman never says to you directly it has anything to do with potential sponsor problems, but the Home show is considered to be an advertiser-friendly show. So we sell a lot of spots. We make a lot of money for the network."
== Other works ==
Actress and comedienne Whoopi Goldberg noted that she became friends with Futterman during her tenure at hosting the Academy Awards.
== Retirement ==
Futterman retired in 2006, embarking on her "retirement occupation" as an art curator due to her interest in art, owing to her stepfather and art dealer, Frank Perls.

Susan Hamilton is an officer in the Caprican Armed Forces.
As an ensign, Hamilton served aboard the Caprican military vessel Zephyrus during the Caprica-Sagittaron Conflict. In an explosion during the opening minutes of the disastrous Battle of Abraxus, Hamilton's left arm is mutilated, resulting in the need for a robotic prosthesis ().
Following Abraxus, Hamilton is promoted to lieutenant and continues to serve under Commander Benjamin Tanner. She serves as Tanner's executive officer, following him to his own command of Caprica's newest destroyer-class ship, Eos, where she also serves with ().
In the following Battle at Sagittaron Bellarias, Isak activates his plan resulting in the . As her prosthesis is robotic, it is compromised by Isak's viral program and strangles her. Tanner's timely intervention prevents this, and she is dragged behind a bridge console while Caprican marines repel the robots that have turned against them (). 
In the last years of the First Cylon War, Hamilton assumes command of in what is the final conflict of that war. However, the Cylons reveal their largest weapon yet, the that forces the Cimtar Peace Accords (.

Suspicious Activity on Graystone Property

Suspicious Activity on Graystone Property is a The Caprican News article written by Sharon Edmonson. It was printed in Martius 28, YR42.
== Story ==
Avid bird watcher Jane Contos was looking through the telescope set up on her back porch. She was tracking the path of a raptor as it flew over the lake behind her house when something caught her eye: Flames. Ms. Contos quickly called the police to report a fire on the Daniel [sic] and Amanda Graystone's property across the lake. The fire dissipated before Contos could get the Caprica City Fire Department on the phone so she hung up. But what she saw next we even [sic] more bizarre. "It looked like some kind of statue at first" said Contos, "like a gray or silver...thing. It looked kind of like that monster from that movie that terrorized Oranu." As there is no law against lawn statues, Contos didn't think much of it. But a few hours later, it was gone. "If I had a stronger telescope I could probably tell you more...but I know what I saw," she said. 
Though the incident has not been confirmed (calls to the Graystones were not returned), strange things seem to be afoot with Caprica's first family these days. We at The Caprican will continue to keep you apprised of the situation as it unfolds. 
== Notes ==
* This article ties into the events of , when Daniel Graystone attempts to confirm the presence of Zoe Graystone's avatar inside the U-87 Cyber Combat Unit prototype by surrounding it with a ring of fire in the Graystone Estate's backyard.
* Contos' reaction to the U-87 is a callback to Amanda Graystone's reaction in after seeing it in Daniel's basement lab.

Swallow

A swallow is an decoy drone used to lure enemy guided missiles away from a Colonial vessel, typically it is launched by the ECO as part of a Raptor's ECM suite.
These devices were deployed from Raptor 478 to successfully lure away two missiles shot at it by a Cylon Raider during the Fall of the Twelve Colonies .
Enough swallows can mimic the electrical "footprint," or signatures of other spacecraft, even that of battlestars when programmed and grouped together .
==Notes==
* Swallows seem to serve as a combination chaff, decoy, and electronic countermeasures suite.

Sweeper

== Background ==
Sweepers deploy chaff payloads to provide radar and projectile countermeasure zones. 
A fundamental tactical craft that can hold off a Cylon long-range missile assault single-handedly 
== Game Abilities & Statistics ==
=== General statistics ===
* Squadron size: 2 Craft
* Hull points: 24 (12 Hull per craft)
* Speed: 340 m/s
* Damage output: 0.3
* Weapon range: 2500m (2000m effective range)
* DRADIS range: 2000m
=== Special abilities ===
Squad repair - All squadrons can be ordered to return to their parent ship and undergo repairs during battle, this can even replace lost craft in the squadron and can be done regardless of how much damage and losses the squadron has taken so long as it is still intact. As an additional note, Sweepers will be restocked with it's chaff upon docking with it's parent ship. This is done immediately, and can be sent back out the following turn.
Disarm - An ability introduced with the reinforcement pack, the Sweeper can be given the order to disarm any hostile deployed mines nearby. The ability range to target mines is a little over 4000m range, and the Sweeper will fly to the target.
Missile interception - Sweepers can attempt to intercept incoming ordnance by giving orders to defend the target of incoming ordnance. Just like Raptors, this really is not recommended with Sweepers, but you can stop some of the slower munitions such as guided missiles if you're desperate.
Deploy Chaff - The Sweeper can deploy chaff which destroys hostile munitions on contact, whilst allowing your own to pass unhindered. Chaff is deployed on the Sweeper's position and will continue to be deployed in 2.5 second intervals as it moves. It has a stock of 10 chaff, and will deploy 4 per turn along it's movement path. The chaff clouds disperse over time, starting off the size of an Adamant, and becoming fleet-encompassing by the second turn of being up.
