The largest and most powerful warships of the Colonial Fleet. The Battlestars were the strategic core of the Fleet, both offensively and defensively. Though it carries fewer weapons then a Baseship, the main batteries of the Battlestar are pretty much even with those of a Baseship and its heavier armor and greater speed and manoeuvrability allow it to avoid or shrug off much of the Baseship’s power.
