Great start. I liked the perspective from a new character. You have a long way to go before you are finished. 20 Chapters at least.

Thanks Julix .. I have a number of chapters done. I had planed on telling the first histroy of the flight from Kobol to the colonies and the later meeting with the Cylons ETC along side the adventures of the ragtag fleet. I hope to get back to it soon.

What made you decide to go into the colonial history? Is history a favorite subject?

Histroy has long been a intrest for me. from the Romans to the Greeks etc but I also wanted to add someting of my own to the saga.

I like that quote. My particuler intrest is Julius Caesar and his life. Alexander the Great also I find intresting.
The main character I am developing for the Kobol story is forebare of Adama family and deals with the last 30 or 40 years of kobols life. what happened to to cause them to leave and the jounery from kobol to the colonies and settling there.
In some ways I think BSG is like the stories of the people who left Europe to the America's. .
If you want me to post more chapters just shot I have a number of others .
I really need the feed back .
