After the Cylon attack on the Colonies, the battered remnants of the human race are on the run, constantly searching for the next signpost on the road to Earth. They face the threat of Cylon attack from without, and treachery and crisis from within. Humanity must work together if they are to have any hope of survival…but how can they, when any of them may, in fact, be a Cylon agent?
Battlestar Galactica: The Board Game is an exciting game of mistrust, intrigue, and the struggle for survival. Based on the epic and widely-acclaimed new Sci Fi Channel series, Battlestar Galactica: The Board Game puts players in the role of one of ten of their favorite characters from the show. Each playable character has their own abilities and weaknesses, and must all work together in order for humanity to have any hope of survival. However, one or more players in every game secretly side with the Cylons. Players must attempt to expose the traitor while fuel shortages, food contaminations, and political unrest threatens to tear the fleet apart.
Battlestar Galactica: The Board Game is a semi-cooperative game for 3-6 players ages 10 and up that can be played in 2-3 hours.
We changed the "thirty-three" crisis. We believe that now it really represent the "thirty-three" effect.
(original card stated: "put this card back in the crisis deck and reshuffle it")
These are game files for Battlestar Galactica introducing a variant based on the episodes, "Crossroads, Parts I & II".
In this variant, the human players have a much more direct method of dealing with the cylons... as long as their assumptions are correct!
Also can be used as an alternative to the Sympathiser mechanic.
Includes 2 new characters, location overlays and alternative Loyalty cards.
With only a few new rules, this very simple yet highly enjoyable variant places actual Centurion figures in a death march down 4 of Galactica's locations, allowing more tactical and visually dramatic game play.
This way, Laura Roslin can actually do her presidential duties on the colonial one.
(If you are reading discussions below, note that the text on the character sheet is now changed to v2)
I got tired of having to look in the rulebook to figure out who was next on the order of succession so put this together. It has the succession list for both BSG and Pegasus. The template is based off of Universalhead's reference sheet.
These are the rules for a variant created by username: MasterDinadan. The variant cuts the game length in half while retaining all the good stuff.
Discussion of the variant can be found here:

Includes two mats on one page for the President and Admiral titles with their associated resources. Title cards also include lines of succession, updated for Pegasus. This makes it relatively easy to transfer titles.
Printing:
Mat is 8.5x11 (~A4) and best printed with no zoom on 11x17 (~A3) paper. When printed, trim the edges. (This is a simple way to cheat full-colour bleed printing.) Cut the title mat down the middle to separate the titles.
