The Reimagined Series
(Battlestar Galactica 2004, Caprica and Blood & Chrome)

A Battlestar Group (BSG) was a naval fleet consisting of a battlestar and its escorts, together defining the group. Battlestars rarely transferred to new groups, giving Battlestar Groups an historical prestige comparable to infantry units.[1]

Known Battlestar Groups[]

Fleet Flagship
Battlestar Group 39 Battlestar Triton
Battlestar Group 41 Battlestar Valkyrie
Battlestar Group 62 Battlestar Pegasus
Battlestar Group 75 Battlestar Galactica
Battlestar Group 83 Battlestar Columbia

Further notes[]

  • The idea of Battlestar Groups was conceived during production of the Miniseries, with the abbreviation simultaneously serving as a realistic military designation and a reference to the franchise itself. Some confusion during production of Season 1 would lead to props relating to Triton to be called "BST-39". Executive Producer Ron D. Moore would later clarify it did in fact mean Group, making "BST" an error.[1]
