You can still glue them back together, but you'll need to add more surface area. Use a thin drill (1/16 inch?) to drill out both the snapped-off ball and the base, then insert a peg of some sort (such as a piece of paper-clip or toothpick). Then you can glue the peg into both broken bits, and it will hold much better than just gluing the broken bits together.

If you look at the pieces in the link that ire_and_curses added, you can see that the bases are some hexes, a vertical triangle with a pea-sized ball at the top.  The break was between the thin tip of the triangle and the ball.  Drilling would be close to impossible with my tools: there's just not enough plastic there to drill and add a pin.

My boys and I still enjoy [Battleship Galaxies](http://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/93538/battleship-galaxies-the-saturn-offensive-game-set) in spite (and because of!) some rather bizarre abilities and the strange "activate only one ship" mechanic.

I did manage to find some replacement pieces from [here](http://www.litko.net/products/Galaxy-Battle,-Medium-Flight-Stands.html#.UrDRvvRDt8E). As you see in the image below, the bases do arrive unassembled. I'll use the plastic cement (that I ordered at the same time) to attach the vertical column into those center holes.
