[a_g]

SolPro: Razor leaked few days ago.

I do not feel guilty. In the end will buy the dvd but it won`t air where i live, so.... Concerning the screenshots - there is deffinately at leas one Valkyrie (may be two) though its engine pods look strange and a new class battlestar - it`s next to Pegasus.

I am not sure if these are spoilers since we know what happened at the Scorpion Fleet shipyards but be warned:

The last one looks like a Valkyrie

I thought it was unrealistic. There were hundreds of people screming and that means that they were all close to a broadcasting radio when the ship blowed. I just don`t see this happening. Otherwise the scnene was very well done.

looks likes a Galactica but big alot bigger

[backstept]

I think it's the right size
perspective seems to be very narrow

My though exactly. It looks as big as Pegasus but if you consider perspective then it must be even bigger than Pegasus. Pegasus is closer to the camera and if both ships were of the same size it would yhave looked bigger. Since they are almost of the same size what seems to be a galactica class battlestar must be bigger than Pegasus. I always thought that Galactica was smaller than Pegasus. Most likely it is a mistake but striktly speaking it must be a new class of battlestars since it is bigger than Pegasus. Also if you look at the Valkyrie there are some things around its engine pods that were not present on the Valkyrie in "Hero".

[Infinity238]

The Valkyries seem to be "refits" and I think people missunderstand when Cain says Pegasus is twice the size she may be refering to the mass of the ship, the amount of weapons, and the fighter complement not strictly length.

[a_g]

I wouldn`t go as saying that Pegasus is 2 times longer than Galactica, but obviously it is bigger. What appears to be a galactica class in the shipyard however is not even the same size of Pegasus but bigger (this if you take perspective into acount). Most likely it is a mistake of the production crew. I am also posting some more pictures. Again be warned - this may be considered spoilers.
These are the two Valkyries and their strange engine pods:

However what picked my interest is this:

I didn`t know that Pegasus had such platform. And what is even stranger - there apear to be people on this platform. In the last picture they are runnig to get inside the ship (they are barely visible). So either there must be atmosphere on this platform or the people there wear some sort of protective suits. I would go for the second option however i do remember several times when colonial 1 landed inside Galactica`s flight pod and the crew welcomed the President there. So do the flightpods of the battlestars have atmosphere or not?

[Freak]

I am guessing that that platform is covered up during flight. And it is used when docked to get big equipment on board.

As the flight pods, there must be a door that closes so crew can get to a ship with having to wear a suit.

The other option is forces field, but due to the power needed, it can only be activated when docked, and the ships use the station power for it. When they use it, when in flight. They lose the use of some major systems like defence weapons, and the likes. Other wise we would see Star Trek style forces field and tractor beams.

But there is no way to provide atmosphere on the platform the way it was shown unless they use Star Wars and Star Trek style force fields and i always thought that there were no such things in BSG. May be these people were in space suits but they looked very "normal"... I mean it looked like they were wearing normal unifors. Unfortunately the resolution and the quality of the picture is too low to know for sure.

Yar forces feilds are to WARS and TREK, but the other expliantion is what I said before.
