BoE.

Although I suppose for B5 it should be BoC6.

Into the Fire?

The long twilight struggle?

In the beginning?

Thirdspace? ...oh wait, we don't have the needed ships for that yet.
Come to think of it, thats the same for Into the Fire. :o

Well it's got to be severed dreams hasn't it. Might not work very well though with the S1 defence grid.

That gets my vote. Easily the most impressive BoE style battle that happened.

That would need Vorlon PK, Shadow Cloud and the ships of the first ones.
So that most likely won't be it.

And it can't the "A view from the gallery".
Are those aliens even planned?
Or the ones from "A voice in the wilderness"?

Those would be cool. Considering the we know very little about them (they are violent and have bright red goofy looking helmets) there could be a nice campaign involving them.

That's in game now courtesy of Maverick and it looks very nice indeed. Now we need some planets for it to blow up.

Any plans for the upgraded defense grid any time soon? and if so will it have the big cool green gun?

and the cool orange ones???
;)

Cool orange ones? B5 originally had "cool orange ones".

Then it was upgraded with white-blob shooting interceptors, fat green blob pulse cannons (in AoG's B5Wars they're basically just Heavy Pulse cannons like on the Omega). And some super-cool gatling guns which fired out a stream of blue-slivers. Which of course was used in my favourite part of SD, when the Thunderbolts attack B5's CnC.

Exactly, But the b5 model doesnt have a C&C above the main docking bay.  It could make missions more interesting if the B5 model had more subsytems Eg. C&C, Cobra Bays, Blue , green, grey etc. areas .. ..  Would give a lot more options in making more realitic missions.

ANYWAY

Update is here

http://www.b5heatemup.co.uk/57280.html

Please replace mission with new one.

There was an error on an arriving ship which sometimes didnt triger. This is sorted now, second wave of ships enter.

Rowan Oak renamed to Roanoke

Ivanova assigned to Escort list when necessary.

Other events will now be triggered that where not triggered b4

tested it a few times now, should work 100%

:)
