Does someone have more information about the "Star Galley" that is mentioned here? Is it some kind of ethereal ship like Moth Ships or Vehkships?

Was this an intentional BattleStar Galactica reference?

Can you elaborate on this?

I have no idea what I am looking at.

Looks more like a teleporter device then a ship to me. :blink:

Battlespires Star Galley (BGS). Made me think of the sci-fi show about a Space-ship (like Battlespire) named Battle Star Galactica (BGS).

Wondering if it was an easter egg from the devs but I might be stretching. :smile:

Nvm. Seems they didn't call it that. Just you. So ignore me.

Maybe I misunderstood you, but yes, Bethesda called it a Star Galley: http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Lore:Letter_to_the_Grand_Marshall_of_the_Imperial_Legion

Any chance this thing could be interpreted as some kind of ethereal vessel?

Perhaps it's named like a ship just because it transports people (like a ship), regardless of the actual method. I don't know, but it would great to see an actual ship moving through Oblivion one of these days.

For what it's worth, the Battlespire walkthrough on UESP says it's "a simple ship named the Star Galley" while the walkthrough on TIL describes it as "the Star Crib teleporter."

I think the picture lady_freyja posted is of the Star Crib, which is located inside the Star Galley (I think?).

Nah I mean they didn't use Battlespire Star Galley. In other words, not the correct acronym. Its called Star Galley or Great Star Galley or something.

Happy to contribute. ;)

It's what I imagined when I read through the Battlespire questline.

What? It is not Battle Star Galatica. Battle Star is the ships class, and its name is Galatica. At least, that's how it was on the old series, I've never seen the new one.

Sorry for the confusion. I just wrote "Battlespire's Star Galley" because it's about the Star Galley appearing in the game Battlespire and obviously being stationed at the Battlespire-Academy.
