My impression of the new BGS Adama has never been very high.

Early on there were indications that he was rather a flunky and operated his vessel and crew similarly. When the War happened, his ship was out of range (ie., out doing flunky stuff that it shouldn’t have been doing) and that was the only reason it survived. The ‘leadership’ of the surviving military was hoisted on Adama by default.

He always seemed more interested in taking care of the few close to him than in the overall security of the survivors.

I noticed the Prez had a board that had the number of survivors. It kept dwindling from around 50k to 45k to 40k. The final number I recall was something like 39k. That was a relatively high loss percentage.

His ship was being retired, not on any real mission. He was basicalling commander for a day. Its a development of a plot. It was on its last flight in a historical sense. Its arms and fighters were old tech about to be moth balled or put in a museum. It was not even on the Cylons radar as a real threat. That's how they survived, luck not skill. Not even worthy of notice. The plot was this old ship and a remanant slipped off with their tales between their legs to run or fight another day, looking for salvation and safety. If you don't like someone or thing fine but have a real reason. I enjoyed this now back to the financial crisis.lol
