Description: The three Olympia Class Battlestars were developed shortly after the beginning of the First Cylon War and the signing of the Articles of Colonization. The pressing need for space borne fighter support led to the conversion of almost any vessel that could carry them. As a result, three heavy cruisers were taken off the line, lengthened, and fitted with large flight decks to port and starboard. The Olympians gave good service throughout the Cylon War, with one, the Triton, being lost in action. Following the War, both were decommissioned. Approximately ten years after the Armistice, Olympia was refitted and returned to service as a training ship, but Pegasus was scrapped. The names and fighting spirit of both Triton and Pegasus, however, were preserved in new Mercury Class Battlestars.

Quirks/Special Characteristics: Because of their cruiser/gunstar origins and rather hasty conversion, these vessels are more complex than is the norm, and as a result, somewhat more difficult to service and maintain. They also retain, shielded deep within their hulls, a small emergency reserve tylium bunker, sufficient for a single FTL jump.
