I'd have to look at a B5 video to be certain, but the neutron cannons look a bit on the skinny side.

Reducing something from 100,000+ polys to ~1000 would be a simple *****.....probably easier to make them yourself.

Natter (netter?) Digital did the work, at least for the last few seasons.

Looks great.  It does need to be bigger.  Also doesn't the Minbari cruiser fire beams higer up?  They have some intenna/poles on the front.

Not at all bad. It's well within acceptable limits.

And the Sharlin has a LOT of beam cannons. Most points are weapons.

Yeah, lots o beams to contend with.  Kazan did a great job on anti-fighter beams that means they are dangerous but not so dangerous that you get shot down enmasse.  We're still tweaking some of the other weapons.
