Top Ten Reasons to Watch Battlestar Galactica

On the March 19, 2008 broadcast of the late-night CBS talk show, Late Night with David Letterman, most of the central cast of the Re-imagined Series presented The Top Ten Reasons to Watch the New Season of Battlestar Galactica. The cast was assembled as a humorous promotion of Season 4, the final season of the Re-imagined Series, and appeared in costume and generally in character (although Jamie Bamber delivered his joke with his natural accent). The actors were introduced by their character names, not their real names.
Letterman's humorous Top Ten lists are renowned to poke fun at news, politics, entertainment or other stories in the United States and elsewhere, and while usually read by Letterman himself, are occasionally delivered by surprise celebrity guests.
Each item on the list was read by one cast member as follows.
10. Chief Galen Tyrol (Aaron Douglas): "In the dramatic season opening episode, we saved 15% by switching our insurance to GEICO."
9. D'Anna Biers (Lucy Lawless): "You'll find out what's in the hatch and who gets off the island...crap, wrong show!"
8. Gaius Baltar (James Callis): "My character creates his own line of 'Honey Roasted Space Nuts.'"
7. (Grace Park): "What else are you going to do? Read a book?"
6. Number Six (Tricia Helfer): "There's a good chance you'll get to see me naked."
5. Saul Tigh (Michael Hogan): "There's a good chance you'll see me naked."
4. Lee Adama (Jamie Bamber): "New FTL drives will better allow the Colonial Fleet to adjust to gravitational variations and achieve maximum superluminal travel to outrun the pursuing Cylon basestars--I don't know what the hell I'm talking about!"
3. Kara Thrace (Katee Sackhoff): "We engage in a life-and-death struggle against evil robots...you know, same $#!@ as last year."
2. Laura Roslin (Mary McDonnell): "I take on the most challenging task in my political career--doing a lame top ten list on a third-rate talk show."
And the number one reason:
1. William Adama (Edward James Olmos): "Watch me lead us into a war against the Cylons without an exit strategy."
The video is available at the official Late Night with David Letterman web site.

Travel Agency Gets More Than It Bargained For After Group Marriage Wins Sweepstakes

Travel Agency Gets More Than It Bargained For After Group Marriage Wins Sweepstakes is a The Caprican Lifestyle article written by Caleb Barlow. It was printed in Februarius 23, YR42.
== Story ==
Chances are you know about the recent sweepstakes hosted by popular Caprica travel agency Colonial Express. You know, the one that promised to send the winner to any of the Twelve Colonies for one week, all expenses paid - travel, lodging, food, entertainment, you name it. The exact phrasing of the contest was as follows: 
"Enter The 'Seven Days Off World' Sweepstakes For Your Chance to Win Seven Days Vacation on Any of the Twelve Colonies. Colonial Express Will Send One Lucky Family Off World For One Week, All Expenses Paid." 
Well, Colonial Express will probably never use a term as vague as "Family" ever again. Because it isn't a lucky young couple that's going to live it up for a week, or even a family of four, as the travel agency was probably hoping. 
The winner of the 'Seven Days Off World' Sweepstakes is the Mayburys of Caprica City, a group marriage consisting of seven wives, five husbands and nine children (ages 3 to 15). Oh, and a golden retriever named Buckingham. 
"Honestly, the 'Seven Days' Sweepstakes doesn't quite have the budget to cover the travel expenses of 21 people," said Colonial Express CEO Mark Standriff on the day the winners were announced. "But we're legally bound by the language and the rules of the contest, so we'll stay true to our word. We wish the Mayburys a safe and happy journey!" Standriff resigned from his position the following morning. 
The Mayburys will be spending a week on Picon - and yes, Buckingham will be joining them, too. "We've heard about the amazing summers on Picon," says Keira Maybury, 25, one of the seven Maybury wives. "We never thought we'd ever be able to afford all of us going together, but now's our chance!" 
The legal team of Colonial Express is currently reworking the terminology of any future sweepstakes.

Treebark

Treebark is a robot facsimile of a Cylon Centurion created by Spectre, an ambulatory cybernetic sentience that assumes command of the garrison on Antila after ever reptilian Cylon dies as a result of that planet's diseases. 
As with Spectre's other creations, Treetop is named after an attribute of the planet Antila. After Spectre leaves the planet with another Centurion, Hilltop tells Treebark that they will surrender to the humans "with honor," a concept that Hilltop then programs into the facsimile (The Young Warriors).

Trevor Moon

In a deleted scene from the Miniseries, the Trevor Moon is a Colonial Fleet training range.
Captain Lee Adama uses the Trevor Moon to evade a Cylon missile that he leads away from Colonial Heavy 798 when it is first targeted by the Cylons. When Adama cannot evade the missile after an acrobatic series of maneuvers through the training range, he targets the missile and destroys it.
In the aired scene, Adama immediately destroys the missile once he successfully leads it away from the passenger liner. Adama's Viper is disabled in both explosions of the detonated missile.
A successive deleted scene shows Colonial Heavy 798 in the process of retrieving Apollo in his disabled Viper after he declares a "krypter."
== Notes ==
* The Trevor Moon deleted scene outtake shows the Trevor Moon and Adama's Viper in a series of incomplete special effects shots.
* In another scene, an occupant of Colonial Heavy 798 asks about a place named Trevor, which may be a planet to which this moon orbits.

* : less than prince high red, but likely relatively high 
* : unknown placement, relatively high 
==Notes==
* This card game was to be named identically to a similar card game found in the Original Series, called "Pyramid." However, the name was mistakenly switched with the basketball/rugby type-game, which is called "Triad" in the Original Series, but is now "Pyramid" in the Re-Imagined Series.
* According to actor Leo Chiang, the production team has not come up with any specific rules for the game and the actors improvise it.BSG.CZ interview with Leo Chiang

Trial Tactics and Strategies

Trial Tactics and Strategies is a book written by civil liberties attorney Joseph Adama, the father of Admiral William Adama.
Lee Adama quotes the following line of page 273 from the book to Romo Lampkin and Gaius Baltar: 
:Forcing a mistrial may seem of little benefit to either side, but in fact it can be a boon to the defense. The prosecution's shown their hand. At retrial the defense has all the tactical advantages and the statistical chances of an acquittal rise by twenty-five percent.

Trinity Base

Trinity Base is a Cylon base in operation during the last years of the Cylon War.
Lucky and his wingman, William Adama, perform a recon photo-op of this location in their Stealth Vipers when Lucky's engine flares out. When attempting to scrub the mission, the Cylons intercept and eventually capture Lucky and his stealth ship, since Adama is unwilling to target and destroy Lucky before bailing out of his own ship (Battlestar Galactica: Origins 5).
After the Armistice is signed, Galactica heads back to Trinity six weeks after the end of hostilities to take out a rogue force of Centurions known as the Annihilators, which results in Galactica being boarded and a large contingent of her crew killed, including Alexa Cain (Battlestar Galactica: Origins 6).

Triton (TRS)

Triton is a battlestar in service with the Colonial Fleet prior to the Fall of the Twelve Colonies, where Kara Thrace had been previously posted under the command of James Jonasson before her reassignment to .
Triton was named by William Adama alongside other battlestars, Columbia, Solaria, and Atlantia, when the Cylons attacked the Colonies . At the time of its destruction it was part of the 39th battlestar group .
Lt. Alex "Crashdown" Quartararo survives the ship's destruction and is found by President Laura Roslin's fleet, where he is reassigned to Galactica as Karl "Helo" Agathon's ECO replacement for Raptor 312 .

File:Tritonpatch 33.JPG|Alex "Crashdown" Quartararo's Triton's patch on his flight suit , and worn through "Water." It is later replaced with a Galactica assignment patch up until his death in "Fragged."
== Notes ==
* The ship is likely named after a figure in Colonial faith or mythology, given the parallels of the Colonial faith and the pantheon of Greek gods. In Greek mythology, Triton is not one of the Twelve Olympians himself (and as such might not be considered a Lord of Kobol by the Colonials), but the son of Poseidon and messenger of the sea.
* Quartararo's ship patch is incorrectly embroidered "BST 39," as it was erroneously assumed that that "BSG" stands for "Battlestar Galactica" and thus the last letter was changed for the Triton patch. However, both the water tank diagram in "Water" and the patches for Pegasus, Valkyrie, and Osiris establish that "BSG" stands for battlestar group.

Troopship

The Cylon Troopship is a cylindrical vessel carries a large contingent of Cylon Centurions in a fast-deployment racks in compartments within the fuselage. The Troopship attacks by locking on to the hull of a larger capital ship and boring through to the internal deck spaces; the Cylons on board are then released into the enemy vessel to capture or destroy it. Troopships have a crew of two Cylons (2003 Video Game). 
The ship shares a similar mission profile to the Heavy Raider from the Re-imagined Series.

Troy (1980)

Captain Troy is a Colonial Warrior attached to the battlestar Galactica during the discovery of Earth by the Fleet. As a child, he was known by his nickname of , which his mother, Serina, and his adoptive family aboard Galactica had used . 
Much like his adoptive father, Apollo, Troy is a squadron leader and pilot. His fellow Warrior, Dillon, is his wingman and both Troy and Dillon have a similar relationship that Apollo and Starbuck had prior to their departures from the Fleet. For instance, Troy has a tendency to adhere to the rules and was serious. With Apollo dead, Troy has been in the care of this grandfather, Commander Adama, and has grown to become a proficient Colonial Warrior, a goal he had promised to achieve after the Colonial holocaust .
== Earth ==
Upon discovery of the fabled Thirteenth Colony, Troy is tasked with leading missions to Earth, starting with the first contact mission to help develop Earth's technology in order to face the Cylon threat . He and Dillon are assigned to pursue contacts in the area of Southern California, but deviate from this when they go back in time, and when they visit New York state ("The Night the Cylons Landed, Part I & Part II").
He takes on the role of Scout Leader with Galactica children, and seems to relish the position. He has deep empathy for the plight of others, and for the environment, and is motivated to action in order to alleviate these plights ("Space Croppers," "The Super Scouts, Part II").
== Post-1980 ==
In the novelization of "The Living Legend", which covers the events of "The Living Legend, Part I" and "The Living Legend, Part II," the introductory segment is written from the point of view of Troy, now a Commander, who was thrust into this role after the death of Adama. (This is an "expanded universe" story based upon Galactica 1980, and neither the book nor series are themselves considered canonical.)
== Notes ==
*When Galactica 1980 was originally conceived, it was to have featured the characters of Apollo and Starbuck. However, neither actor was available for the project, and so instead of recasting it was decided to advance the storyline 30 years and feature two new characters, Troy and Dillon as the new leads.
*Troy was a recurring character in Galactica 1980 who appeared in all but the final episode "The Return of Starbuck".
*"Troy" was quoted as 's given name. This fact seems to have been adopted into the Battlestar canon and other non-canonical stories, such as Richard Hatch's various novels and, most recently, the Cylon Apocalypse comic series.
