About the Game

The Cylons have rebelled!


Four years of war and a steep price in human lives have not been enough to unlock a deadly stalemate. The Colonials have countered all of the Cylon’s offensives so far, but no decisive victory was achieved.

The deadlock is suddenly broken by a surprise attack from the Cylons and the brutal annihilation of the Colonial Fleet High Command on Picon. The fate of mankind is now resting on the shoulders of Rear-Admiral Lucinda Cain.

The secret, cunning plan she has conceived could turn the tide of the war forever…

THE GAME




BATTLESTAR GALACTICA Deadlock™ takes you into the heart of the First Cylon War, to fight epic 3D battles that will test your tactical prowess.

Take control of the Colonial Fleet from the bridge of the mobile shipyard, Daidalos, and free the Twelve Colonies from the Cylon threat. Build your fleets, protect the Quorum alliance and prepare to dig deeper into the conspiracies of this heroic conflict.

Legendary Names


Continue the legacy of Battlestar Galactica™ with new characters and familiar faces, in an original story set during the First Cylon War. Launch Viper squadrons and Raptor scouts and jump the Galactica in to dominate the battlefield. An authentic Battlestar Galactica™ experience awaits.

Love the detail of the ships. Campaign missions are challenging and fun (first few time's through). Would have really liked to see a follow on version. Not finding the new one a successor at all.

Overall a pretty fun game. The turn based mechanic was a bit more annoying than other games but it's no biggie. The other mechanics are also simple and easy to understand 9/10

I got the game for free, but bought all the DLCs. Unfortunately a few months later BSG Deadlock was removed from the Steam store, allegedly due to licenses expiring. BSG Deadlock is a bit dry in its presentation, but it
