So I am  back on  the  BS  Raven  as  her communications officer and   back   really home  with the  Spartans viper  squadron and  I  am  very happy. I   miss  the  gunstar and  her   command  and  crew  but I  started off  here on  the  Raven  with the Spartans  so  its  good  to  be  back  home.  now  to do  the job I  was  promoted to  do and  get  things  rolling  on   everything  that is  need.  I  have  missed  you   Raven command  and  crew. It is  good  to  be  home.

 All Combat Fleets,Whether they be Seafaring or Spacefaring, Rely heavily on their Supply Chains; Without Ammunition, Fuel, Food, and Other Vital Supplies, Ships are pretty much useless in War, For they can't just run back to Port whenever They run out of Something.

This is A Fact The Colonial Fleet almost found out The Hard Way in The First Cylon War; To keep Colonial Military Vessels supplied with Everything They needed to keep The Cylons at bay, Numerous Civilan Cargo Ships were pressed into Service to support the War Effort.

Sadly, Too Many of These Commercial Ships were not Designed, Much less built, to operate in or near Combat Zones; Many were lost, along with Their Civilian Crews.

The Colonial Minisrty of Defense ordered the Design and Construction of Specialist Military Cargo Freighters that would be able to Support Military Vessels with Vital Supplies and be able to operate near Combat Zones.

By Combining A Huge Cargo Carrying Capability with The Limited Armor of A Battlestar, Leonis Shipbuilding Ltd. presented the Demeter Class ReplenishmentstarThe Demeter Class,Named for The Godess of The Harvest, Has The Capacity to supply an Entire Battlegroup for One Standard Year; It has Storgage for both Perishables and Non-Perishables, And A Vast Loading Dock with Eight  Large Cargo Doors; It also has an Expanded Topside Flight Deck,Meaning She can supply Multiple Ships at once using Multiple Modes of Transfer; At the Stern are Four Large Tanks for transferring Potable Water:The Bow and Engine Sections are Modules from the Valkyrie 2/Posiedon Class Battlestars,Of which Thousands have been constructed to Build and Modify Various Military Vessels of All Types, Some for Combat, Others for Special Support Roles; These Ships have A Limited Weapons Capability strictly for Self-Defense.In Combat Situations, A Replenishmentstar,Along with The Fleet's Other Support Vessels, Would hang back out of A Combat Zone,Protected by either Corvettes or Viper Squadrons,While the Combat Ships Conduct Operations.

The Design of The Demeter Class was So Impressive, A Non Armed Freighter Version for The Civilian Market was in development.Some Demeter Class Replenishmentstars were to be Assigned to Major Fleets/Battlegroups,While Others were to Operate Independently to supply Individual Military Ships Operating in Certain Sectors.THE CLASS:

The Standard Compliment of The Replenishmentstar is about 3,500 Personel and an Expanded Detachment of Colonial Marines.

The Propusion Systems are One FTL Drive,  Six Sublight Engines which are Enhanced with More Powerful Components to help move that kind of Bulk,And Extra Thrusters, Including 16 Lift Thrusters on The Bottom to Help the Ships Ingress/Egress to/from Ground Based Port FacilitiesStandard Self -Defense:

28 KEW Turets

250 Point Defense Guns

2 Ship/Ship Missile Batteries

Plus Full ECM Suite

Auxilliariy Ships:

30 Standard Shuttles and 2 Raptor Detachments20 Demeter Class Ships were Planned,With The Option for More,And the Possible Civilian Verson; Eight Wre Built and Three were Under Construction at the Time of The Second Cylon Invasion .

SHIPS IN SERVICE/STATUS:

Demeter (RPLR-550) Was Originally to be Assigned to BSG-75 before the Announcement of the Decommissioning of Battlestar Galactica; The Demeter's Last Known Location was on Gemenon,Attempting to Evacuate Survivors.

STATUS: Unknown

Themiscyra (RPLR-556) Raven Battle Group. STATUS:  Unknown/PresumedActive

Nike (RPLR-592) BSG-44, Fifth Fleet  STATUS: Unknown/Presumed Active

Hera(RPLR-570) WSG-05, Fifth Fleet  STATUS: Unknown/Presumed Active

Cassiopea(RPLR-575) BSG-01, First Fleet  STATUS: Destroyed at Picon

Andromeda (RPLR-576) Third Fleet  STATUS: Unknown

Zehuti (RPLR-577) Seventh Fleet  STATUS: Unknown

Sephora (RPLR-578) BSG-200  STATUS: Reported Destroyed

THE MODEL:

If The Center Secton of the Ship looks Familiar, It Should; It's Part of MPC's 1/48 Scale Eagle One Transporter from 'Space 1999'; After Looking at all other Ship Designs,Along with Models Avaliable on the Market, I figured this would be The Best Place to start.

Basically, I built the Center Section, Without the extra equipment, And Added Resin Bow and Engine Sections of the Valkyrie2/Posiedon Battlestar supplied by Mel Kraley at Starfighter Shipyards; Then, I covered The Body with Evergreen #4530 Metal Siding, Then Evergreen Strips...LOTS of Theml; Then The MPC Kit gave me the Water Tanks at the Rear, Added Plastruct 1/4 Open Truss Secrions above the Cargo Doors; The MPC Kit gave me A Few Extras here and there; Spare Pegasus Flight Deck Decals, Gun Turrets from The Spares Box;Finally, Name Decals from Downen Scale Replicas added the Final Touch; All Painting  and Weathering was done with Acrylics.

All in All, It turned out better and faster than I had anticipated; I Intend to build Two More for My 5th Fleet; And  Three of the Smaller 1/72 Scale MPC Eagle Ones will be Munitionstars.

Stellar con  at UNC-G  campus  was  2  days  of   slow  meet and  greets  with the  Uss serenity while I  was  there  both  days  between  10-1430 hrs. Once  again  I  was  the only  Colonial  at  the  entire  even .It  was mostly   Anime  creatures  it  seemed  . The  USS  serenity  CO J  Darnell  and  the  SFMC  DOIC MCapt.  R Presson  were  the only  two   there  both  days manning their  fan table  besides   me . While it is  a  2  day  con as  East gate was only  a  1  day  event Stellar  was run  by  the  science fiction  federation  club on  the  university's  campus after  not  being held for many years due  to  fiances  and  no interest in  any one  doing it.

I did make  contact  with the  student  organizer  who saw  the uniform I  was in and  asked if I  could try to  reach out to  any  BSG  groups  in the  area  if there were  any  that might  be interested  in  attending  next  year. I only  said I  would  see what I  can  do. Only group  I  can  reach out to  close  by is  the  Gunstar in  Fayetteville  NC. SO  GSO  might  be a  bit  far  for  Adm.  Ranson  and  the  rest of the  crew  to  get to a  con   for two  days. At least  its out  there when I  speak  to  him. The  final  call  is  his to  make. in all  it was  a fairly  run  con   with many  vendors  ,  artists  and   things going on.  I  was  told  they  did  have  a BSG  board  game  in  their  game  room. I  did not how ever  look in  to  that.

I  know I  havent  been  active  alot  as  of late  had super  busy month  here in October  with  a few  family  events  ie;  birthdays and  my  own  wedding  anniversary. I  am  hoping  to  have  my  BSG  blue  uniform by  nov  12  for EastGate  comic con  in  greensboro  NC along w ith  my  tags   and   all that I  need. Fingers  crossed  that happens. Debating on  weather or  not to  get Lee's  tags  or Captain  Agathon's. will  see  what  happens  there.

I  will  get  pictures  from  EastGate  if I  go.  Depends on what I  have  going on here at that time and  if I  can  get  the  time  off  from  that   for the  day. its only  a  One  day  con  so  we will see.More information  forth coming  as date  gets closer.

Colonials,

           Because of the failure of the Valkyrie Mk. 1 as A Special Operations Platform, The Fleet Admiralty came to the Conclusion that A more specialized and efficient Ship Design was needed for that particular mission.

They finally settled upon the Banshee Class Design, A more streamlined and stealthy design perfect for Counterinsurgency and Counterintelligence, Two things that might make the difference in Any Future  Conflict with the Cylons, or Any Foe that would Threaten the Security of the Colonies.

With certain Design Features, The Stealth Battlestar, or 'Stealthstar', Can penetrate Enemy Space undetected and conduct Special Operations and Intelligence Gathering Missions either independently, or in advance of A Major Fleet Operation.

The Stealthstar Banshee (SSR-001) was the Test Bed; It proved the Efficiency and Efficacy of the Design Mission; However, It also shown that Improvements in Compatible Systems and Equipment were needed; Fortunately, Such Improved Technology was just coming on line.

The Second Ship, The Lelantus (SSR-002), Was built with the Advanced Improvements and designated Banshee Mk. 2; The Banshee was refitted to Lelantus Specifications.

One of the Integral Features of the Mk.2 was an Advanced Copy of The Standard Cylon IFF(Identification Friend or Foe)Device, Which will allow the Stealthstar to Approach Cylon Fleet Formations and Anchorages without being detected.

Another is the Low Visibility Armor and Composite Paint which is said to absorb DRADIS Waves instead of reflecting them back; All External Ports can be sealed up to also prevent DRADIS Waves from bouncing back.

All of the Internal Systems (FTL, DRADIS, Sublight, Computer ) designed for this Class are Classified; However, It's Weapons Compliment is as follows:

KEW Turret: 16

Point Defense Guns: 75

Ship to Ship Missile Batteries: 25

Nuclear Weapons: (Classified)

The Air Wing of the Banshee Class Consists of Two Squadrons of Stealth Fighters; The Older, Yet still useful, S-Star Mk. 1 is retained, Receiving Upgrades to it's Engines and Computer Systems.

Another Squadron is the More Advanced 'Blackbird', Borrowing some Design Features from the Viper Mk. 2 and 3, However, being wrapped in Composite Material; This was initially intended to replace the older S-Star when sufficient numbers were built; The Blackbird was intended to be the Standard Stealth Fighter in the Fleet, and some already built were distributed  to certain Fleet Units already; There is an Unconfirmed Rumor that Chief Galen Tyrol of the Battlestar Galactica somehow obtained the Plans for the Blackbird and has actually built one aboard the Galactica.

Also, A Squadron of Raptors, Specially Coated in Composite Paint, Are assigned for Insertion/Extraction Missions.

In Addition, The Stealthstars would also be assigned A Company of Colonial Marines specially trained in Unconventional Warfare.

The Banhsee Class was being constructed at A Undisclosed Location somewhere within the Colonies; It is not known whether such Facility survived the Second Cylon Invasion.

THE CLASS

Because of the Clandestine Operational Intent of this Class, Not much is known at this point about which ones have been completed and which have survived; The Data We have is mostly based on Survivors' Accounts:

MK.1

Banshee (SSR-001) Refitted to Mk. 2 Specifications

MK.2 (Lelantus Subclass)

Banshee (SSR-001) Assigned First Fleet; Was in Orbit with the rest of the Battlegroup at Picon when the Cylons Invaded; Despite not having Networked Computers to be Exploited via Dr. Gaius Baltar's CNP Program, The Cylons were ably to Visually sight , target, and destroy the Banshee.  Status: Destroyed

Lelantus (SSR-002)  Conducted several Clandestine Missions beyond the Red Line into Cylon Space; No Enemy Detection reported; The Lelantus  brought back Valuable Intel, Including Recon Photos, Of the Evolution of the Cylon Fleet ;It's last known Position was Several Days out of Ragnar Anchorage.  Status: Unknown

Thespia (SSR-100) Assigned WSG-05, Fifth Fleet. Status: Presumed Active.

Solomon (SSR-101) Assigned Seventh Fleet. Status: Unknown

Bubo (SSR-102) Was Reportedly only 65% Complete at the Time of the Cylon Attack. Status: Incomplete/Destroyed

Shu (SSR-103) Reportedly only 30% Complete. Status: Incomplete/Destroyed

THE KIT

This is Another Creation from the Facebook Group Colonial Fleet Shipyards; I actually Campaigned for This Kit because it was A Unique Design I wanted to add to My Fifth Fleet.

The Ship Itself is in Six Resin Parts; Included are Options to have the Gun Turrets Stowed or Deployed

And, Here's the Big Plus: It actually comes with TINY Vipers and Raptors! I mean, I didn't think it was possible to make them THAT Small(We're talking 1/4015 Scale, the same as the Moebius Galactica and Pegasus)! And Painting Them? It would be like Trying to Paint Fleas! Well, They would like nice with other Ships of the Fleet, If anybody wants the Challenge.

 I Decided to go with A Total ' Buttoned Up' Look and Installed Retractable Flight Deck Doors using Evergreen Corrugated Sheet.

For the Low Visibility Scheme, I sprayed Russian Green as A Primer, Then Airbrushed Uniform Grey for the Cloud Pattern; I made the Colonial Seal Decal from an Image; The Custom Ship Names are Courtesy of Downen Scale Replicas.

And there You have it, A Nice little Project which adds to My Fleet.

You can get one of Your own by Contacting Jack Burgin jr. in the FB Group Colonial Fleet Shipyards.

So  we moved  3  of our  dogs to  the  big house in   June.  Sadly  Lady  Sansa  crossed  the  rainbow  bridge on  6/2 due to  a  stroke/  Blood clot.  My  husband  and I  are   heart  broken  but  we  are  dealing  because  we  have  Captain  Jack, Rebel and Captain  Adama that  still need us and  Sansa wouldnt  want  us  to  be  sad  for  too long.

So I  went  to  East gate  comic  con back in  May. There  was NO  Battlestar:  Galatica Presence  at all. I  am hopping to  have  my BSG  uniform  by  the next one in November  on the  12th. I  plan on  wearing that  over  the  Star fleet one.  Dont  care if it  pisses  people  off.  BSG  is  my  go to  fandom and  club not Star trek.  gives  exposure to  BSG I  am  all  for it. Hopefully t here  are others  near NC  that  can  come  to it and  help  me  out there.  We  dont  need a  table  just   bodies in  uniforms. Go  from  there this time  then  next year see  what  we  can  do  for a  table.

So come this  time  next  month I  should  be  in  new  quarters with an  band  new office  set up I  hope. Will  have more  BSG  things o n the  walls. I  refuse to  add the  few (SF) Starfleet   things I  have as  BSG is  my go to  over  Star Trek.  It  always  has  been.

This  change in  quarters  brings  me,  my husband  and  our  4  dogs ( Captain Jack (Sparrow) ,  Sansa,  Rebel and  Captain Adama Lee (  Yes she  is  named after who  you  all  think) more space and  we  can  not wait  for it.  Its been  a long  8  years in  coming but  it i s finally  going to  happen and  we  are  super  excited. It  gives  us  the  bigger  more open  floor  plan  with the  bigger  kitchen and  the  bigger master  bathroom.  It is also  the house my husband  grew  up in.

SO  I  plan on  being  more active  here  once  we  are set up  at t he  big  house so  my  fellow colonials bear  with  me a  bit  longer.  I  am here and I  read  what I  can.

Colonials,

Colonials,

Over the holidays, the XO of Battlestar Raven-BFC 002, suffered a tremendous lost in his life when his son Tyler passed away. We kept it of the public’s eyes to give the family some privacy and time to deal with their lost. But as a parent, you can never really fully deal with the loss of a child. Even as time passes by, the hurt will still be there. Just not as fresh. All you can do is keep the memory of that child close to you.

Steve Tweed is my XO on Battlestar Raven and a friend. I do not call people a friend just like that. Many of my staff on Battlestar Raven, has been with me through thick and hard times since the group’s inception. That is how close and tight knit we are of a group. You do not have to be blood related to be a family. You just choose to do it because you feel it and act on it.

The reason for this post is that I would like for this community to come together for one of our very own and open their hearts into donating whatever you could spare, towards the memorial fund established in Tyler Tweed’s memory. Tyler was a diesel mechanic, and his scholarship will be for people who are interested in mechanics at Madison College. Tyler was a graduate of that program and loved working in the mechanical field. Tyler passed away on December 14th, 2022, at the age of 24 from complications from diabetes. All funds donated will be used to fund this scholarship.

He is a wonderful young man taken too soon from his parents and friend’s lives. Tyler maybe gone, but he will never be forgotten. Not by his immediate family and second family.

So Say We All!

Short Summary The Stranded Warrior

Are you tired of waiting for the TV and Movie producers to finally make a Classic Battlestar Galactica TV show or Movie?  I know we were, so we decided to do something about it.  We are Chris and Pete (aka The Tipsy Toaster and NY Pete) from the live Vodcast IFB Interfleet Broadcasting.  Together as lifelong Battlestar Galactica fans (Galactica nuts really) we are going to make an outstanding fan film with your help. 

Yeah, I know around every bulkhead is someone asking for cubits, or some used viper salesman haggling you.  So what makes us so special?  Well, glad you asked.  Over the years (yahrens) of our live broadcasting, we have interviewed tons of fans like you, some going the extra mile, some just doing what they can to fuel the fandom.  We have met so many talented and passionate people who want to help lend their expertise to this fan film.  We have built a rag tag fleet of fans and recruited talent for this project. We are confident with the right number of cubits (open palm smacks viper fuselage) you can bring some relief to those old school Battlestar Galactica yearnings.  And who knows, perhaps we can start a movement and show that the original 1978 Glen Larson Battlestar Galactica is still a viable product and has fans willing to watch. So, what do ya say?  This thing only has 45 years (yahrens) on it, so let’s take it for a spin!

THE COSTS

How much will it cost? Well it depends.  We are looking for $7500 cubits to do a 20-minute bare-minimum production that will make any BSG fan proud.

We can do the bare minimum at this cost because we have a lot of volunteers for one. [Actually, we’re lucky that everyone is a volunteer.] These are talented people who work for a meal and the exposure, which is fantastic.  And we already threw in a couple of thousands of our own dollars to get the ball rolling.  We also scaled our production to fit the budget. The more cubits we get, the higher the quality production.  As you can see we are determined to do this but want to make the best product we can.  We sure hope you can help us.

GOALS

But all said and done, we do have stretch goals That will increase the quality of the production. 

Goal 01 $7500
Seven thousand five hundred Cubits is the bare minimum and gets us a two-day shoot on location at a large building in New York with real actors and 1080 cameras.  Better than a Cellphone production in front of a sheet somewhere on the lower decks of the Galactica here! This also includes some costumes and props.

Goal 02 $9500
At nine thousand five hundred Cubits We can get a 20', and two 10' Green Screens backdrops to simulate inside of a Battlestar. (Renting a Battlestar or a building and constructing a set was way over our budget!)  

Goal 03 $11,000
At eleven thousand we will be able to rent three professional cameras and lenses for a two day on location shoot.  This will give us the ability shoot 6k and edit to 4k.  We will also be able to rent audio equipment like lavalier mics, shotgun mics, recorders and boom pole.

Goal 04 $13,000
At Thirteen thousand five hundred cubits, we will fly the main character in to film on location and drive the necessary equipment and green screen down to record scenes at a warehouse with a Real 1 to 1 scale viper not a cardboard cutout! 

Goal 05 $16,000
Sixteen Thousand cubits will give us the use of professional lights for the scenes and the green screen. Instead of using home made clamp lights and bulbs from the Cylon's garage.

Goal 06 $23,000+
Reaching this goal will give us a basic start for another 20+ minute part two of the Stranded Warrior.  Further funding will make on location shooting possible.  We will need to travel and find a western set or utilize the green screen we have from the first episode. This includes the backstory of Lacerta, Red eye and what happens to Martin!

Every cubit donated goes into the production, the more cubits donated the better the production.  Being a fan film, NO ONE MAKES MONEY from this project! It’s a showcase of Classic Battlestar Galactica talent, just about every other franchise has a strong Fan Film representation, now it’s our turn to fuel the fleet!

What’s in it for you?

We promise you this: if we meet the goals outlined above, we will provide the best fan film possible, using really talented people and quality equipment.  We included some perks so be sure to check those out.  From the custom screen worn helmets to custom hoodies to uniform items and screen credits.  Everyone who donates gets something.   

Can’t Donate?

We understand that not everyone is in a position to donate but if you can’t, help out by spreading the word.  Use those share tools provided here on Indiegogo and check out our progress on social media.
