The unthinkable has happened, Man’s creation the Cylons, made in his own image, have rebelled. The entire human race is in jeopardy,and we must unit as one species as one race, for the survival of us all.

BSG Deadlock puts you in command of the human fleet during the first cylon war. Can you defend the twelve colonies of man? Can you outthink, outmaneuver and outfight the machines can you secure the future of the human race?

Games based on the Battlestar Galactica franchise have been remarkably rare, nevertheless it’s surprising that no official strategy games have been made for BSG in the eight years since release, particularly when fan made BSG strategy games such as Beyond the Red Line have been incredibly popular.

With games like Fractured Space, and Dreadnaught hogging the limelight as far as big ship combat is concerned, BSG Deadlock is set to take a different path. Not only is Deadlock the first official BSG Strategy game to be made, it is also a turn based strategy too; something many bug developers seem to shy away from, despite the success of games like Xcom2.

Needless to say, I’m a huge fan turn based strategy, and a huge fan of big ship combat too (who isn’t?) so I’m very excited to see what Black Lab Games have in store for us for the 31st August.
