For me it's the Zylon fighter from the Atari 5200 version of Star Raiders that is commercially distinct from any Cylon ship design and in no way infringes on the copyrights and trademarks of Battlestar Galactica or any of its subsidiaries.

Even in-universe Cylons were pretty shit at war. Word of god states that 1 Battlestar is worth 2 Basestars, and it wasn't unusual over the course of the series for a Viper pilot to have 50+ Raider kills.

The only reason they destroyed the 12 colonies was because of the computer virus and surprise nuking all the population centers. Mostly the computer virus, as "The Plan" showed.

They were ambushed because their ships were disabled by the virus Baltar helped them implant, did you even watch the fucking show OP? After nuking the shit out of everything while the fleet couldn't fight back, only Galactica and later Pegasus were left and by that point they would have been overwhelmed by sheer force of numbers.

Probably they are not warships but the kind of ship they had at hand that they pressed into use for the war.

Look at the shape and all the windows on it. It is designed to provide the most windowed passenger cabins per square feet like a cruise ship.

Its stated in the show the base stars were built intending that they were just for acting as carriers for raiders and nukes. Not as battleships.

They were relying on the virus working. If it didnt work they would have been very outmatched.

It's so it could nunchuck itself at a Battlestar.
