Weapons
Blasters: Colonial weapons carried by the human warriors. Rather bulky in size, these laser weapons can stun or kill a human, but are mainly designed to blast through the protective outer armour of the Cylon Centurions.
Vipers: Swift, high-speed attack craft launched from the Battlestar Galactica. Laser equipped and designed for single pilot control.
Cylon Blasters: Rifle-shaped, as opposed to the pistol-shape of the Colonial weapons, the Cylon blasters have the same effective range and power.
Cylon Fighters: Three-seat attack craft not as advanced as the vipers and fitted with three Cylon starpilots, each programmed to handle a different battle mode. Laser equipped.
Laser Cannons: The Battlestar Galactica's last line of defence if attacking craft get past the Viper squadron.
