Top 5 Battlestar Galactica Ships

These are my picks for the 5 best ships of BSG; either series.

5. Pegasus
Glorious original series tribute turned bittersweet ally, the Battlestar Pegasus captured the 70's Battlestar design superbly. The only thing I don't like about it is the sound of the doors... However, it makes up for that by leaps and bounds in one of the best space battles ever. No, I'm not talking about the Resurrection Ship.

4. Resurrection Hub Basestar
Speaking of Resurrection, these guardians of heavily defended Cylon Resurrection Hubs are a menacing presence to say the least. Basically a technological fusion of a Resurrection Ship and a Basestar. 




3. Viper Mark II
In the fine Re-Imagined Series tradition of honoring the original series with retro ship designs, here comes the Viper Mark II. This is the fighter most frequently used on BSG due to the limited supply of supposedly-superior Mark VIIs.



2. Cylon Raider
It's alive. Literally.









1. Original Series Cylon Basestar
I love these so much, as well as the ominous music that plays whenever we cut to one of them. Utterly classic.
