* MaybeMundaneMaybeMagic: The Oracle of Circe, once the drugs kick in, gives a vision to Julia and Kacey regarding Kacey's fate in the original timeline. Battletech is normally a pretty hard Sci-Fi series, so ordinarily this sort of thing could be discounted, but the accuracy with which the Oracle predicts this is startling. It could be attributed to the drugs, but even Julia admits that she didn't tell the Oracle her name. It is mentioned that skeptics do say that the Oracles only take the drugs to get high, though.

* AscendedExtra: InUniverse for the Colonials, the goddess Circe is this. Before the tribes came to the planet, Circe was a minor goddess- respected, but not one of the main Olympian Pantheon with lots of worshipers. In this universe, she's now the patron goddess of New Circe and receives regular offerings and prayers. She's cited as proof that "Even if the Thirteenth have abandoned the Gods, the Gods have not abandoned the Thirteenth," since even they named the planet after a goddess.



* IDidWhatIHadToDo: Roslin tries to pull this card regarding Cylon [=POW=]s. The Wolverines respond that they managed to survive a conflict against a brutal, genocidal foe, after which they fled in a rag-tag fleet of starships, hunted for years by their enemies, trying desperately not to be found until they reached New Circe- AKA pretty much the story of the Colonials, minus the robot uprising- and they didn't violate their principles while doing so. They go on to say that Roslin's excuse might fly with others, but given their history, it won't fly with the Wolverines.

The very title is from ''Literature/MobyDick''.''Literature/MobyDick''.
** When Nike mentions that her creators at least knew AI literature, she mentions Niven (author of the Known Space series) and Laumer (creator of the Bolo series).
** She calls the WeaponizedExhaust trope "Kzinti Lesson," after the Niven story "The Warriors" where the Kzin were taught it firsthand.

Frickin' Laser Beams entry amended in accordance with this Trope Repair Shop Thread.


* EnergyWeapon: The Colonials are initially surprised by the Wolverines having weaponised lasers, but eventually get around to installing energy weapons on Vipers and the Battlestars. Colonial kinetics are better than Wolverine ones though.

* NeverLiveItDown: InUniverse, the crew of the ''Pegasus'' after Cain's actions. On a more humorous note, Lance the Cat for Romo Lampkin, who has become his unofficial mascot against his wishes (he doesn't even like the cat).
