Battlestar Galactica Online

About

Battlestar Galactica Online is a browser-based MMO that pits players in the middle of the war between humanity and the Cylons. Choose to fight as Colonial pilots in Vipers or join the Cylon forces in Raiders. The game mixes tactical space combat with resource management and fleet building. Players repair ships, gather materials, and wage battles across a shared galaxy. Alliances form and break as both sides struggle to survive in uncharted space. Launched in 2011, the game built a dedicated player base with its blend of strategy and sci-fi lore. Community efforts often shaped the battlefield, with large-scale fleet clashes becoming regular events. While not a modern hit, its persistent world and competitive PvP kept a core group engaged for years. The Cylon vs Colonial conflict remains a central draw, offering clear goals and high-stakes conflict.

Storyline

Forty years after the first Cylon War, the Cylons returned and laid waste to the Twelve Colonies. The ageing Battlestar Galactica managed to escape the attack, and set out to find a new home: a planet known as Earth. Pursued by Cylon forces, Battlestar Galactica and the remaining Colonial Fleet were reunited with another survivor of the Cylon attack, the Battlestar Pegasus. Together, they struck back and destroyed the Cylon Fleet's Resurrection Ship. The Cylons launched a massive counterattack in retaliation. Caught unprepared, the Colonials attempted to jump away to safety, but something went terribly wrong. The FTL drives of both fleets were overloaded, triggering an uncontrolled jump that threw them far off course. In Battlestar Galactic Online, both the Colonial and Cylon fleets have found themselves stranded in an unexplored area of space. Heavily damaged and critically low on resources, both fleets must race against time to repair and rearm themselves while contesting for control of nearby systems rich in Tylium, metals, and water. The Colonial fleet is desperately searching for a way to escape and continue their journey to Earth before the Cylons regain enough strength to wreak their revenge and destroy humanity once and for all.
