Though not specifically seen on screen, the battlestar Triton is mentioned when the Cylons attack the fleet at Cimtar (Saga of a Star World).

It's likely Acropolis and Pacifica are the other unnamed battlestars seen with the Atlantia and Galactica at Cimtar.

-# According to information released by [[Zoic]], the ''Triton'' was one of the second batch of seven battlestars constructed at the time of the [[Cylon War]], the others being: ''[[Solaria]]'', ''Pacifica'', ''Acropolis'', ''Prometheus'', ''Argo'' and ''Poseidon''.
-# During the opening of the [[Mini-Series]], [[Aaron Doral]] states that the [[Battlestar]] ''[[Galactica]]'' is the "last of her kind". This would suggest that:
-#* Either the ''Triton'' mentioned later in the mini-series may have been built much later than the original twelve battlestars, possibly as a replacement vessel
-#* Or Doral was simply making a point that the ''Galactica'' is the only remaining battlestar with non-integrated systems

+It's likely ''[[Acropolis]]'' and ''[[Pacifica]]'' are the other unnamed battlestars seen with the ''[[Atlantia]]'' and ''[[Galactica]]'' at Cimtar.
-Though not specifically seen on screen, the name of the ''Triton'' is mentioned in connection when the Cylons attack on the fleet at [[Cimtar (TOS)|Cimtar]] ([[Saga of a Star World]]), along with the ''[[Acropolis]]'' and ''[[Pacifica]]'' - so it can be assumed that these three were the  three unnamed battlestars seen with the ''[[Atlantia]]'' and ''[[Galactica]]'' at Cimtar.
