Will there be illustrations for all / most of them?

DW

LBH - you are in for a treat
I think the action in these books is some of the best SF military I have ever read; and these is a lot of blowing up things: tanks, cities and in one case even a castle!

Matt - are you going to to a special open day to launch the Slammers on the world?

Matt, any chance we can get the eratta download updated to include fixes for all these other errors?

LBH

I'll second that call (and hope the promised PDF relese has them too).

DW

Well I now have the book in my hands and I like it; and the speed which the errata appeared plus the free adventure (now where have I seen that before??? :lol: ) are all very gratifying. But ... after reading through the sections on ships and vehicles I think I have found a few more “oversights” tha...

Matt - nice to hear that the problems have been recognised and fixed (sort of ).

Will this book be released as a PDF? And will the PDF have the corrections??

DW

Whoooohooo! I just received my preordered Lurker's Guide to Gaim in the mail! No time to read it yet, but from what I just saw while thumbing through it, it's really good! petitbilbo (who's 43 and should be quitting to start posts with whoohoo's and such... Fanboy!) 43 - Ha! A mere child :lol: So c...

Impressive; very, very impressive!!

I have only had a chance to flick through it so far but The Dilgar stuff is worth the price of the PDF alone

DW

In that case can all us pebbles quickly vote for Sharlins!!!

DW

Well all the ships I wanted are in there; and I am much relieved to see the Victory on the list after my conversation with Matt at the last B5 day

As for the Minbari - you are spot on LBH! What's happened to all the boneheads???

DW

Matt - thanks for the quick correction; now legions of B5 fans can breathe easily again

DW

OK, now I am getting worried ... :shock: The book has disappeared from the "This Month's Releases" page; not too surprising as we are now in February but it is not listed anywhere on the B5 page either (and the same goes for The Universe of Babylon 5 as well). Is it because they have just fallen bet...

Add me to the list for this one (PDF or Hard Copy, or knowing me probably both!)

DW

In answer to your questions: yes, yes and possibly.

Of course you could always wait for the Gaim B5 sourcebook due out this month

DW

Yep, HG is a "must have" for me too, but so is the B5 Sourcebook!

And this goes for me too
Those ships and deck plans will be useful for whatever SF game you are playing (and now I am REALLY looking forward to seeing the plans for the B5 ships )

DW

And after playing a scenario using the B5-T rules at the Open Day I can personally say that Traveller is a good fit for B5 and this is one fun game

DW

My bags are packed, I'm ready to go.... LBH: you are not the only one..... Shuttle fuelled and ready for lift (the mortgage for the petrol came though :D ) Bag packed (inc book for CC to sign and dice/ pens, just in case..) Alarm set: 4am ( :cry: Can't Mongoose find somewhere a bit closer??!) See y...

LBH: Impressive, very impressive .... Traveller Prep Plan v1 1 - Find old map to Mongoose offices complete with hidden path through the hyperspace whirlpools that surround them (also known as the Swindon Roundabouts of the Lost) 2 - Find B5 item that CC has not signed (tough one that) 3- Send shuttl...

Hmm just to add a few things - the dice system was unusual to say the least (roll 2d6 and subtract from each other - add the result to your stat+skill score [there was something else but I have forgotten it]); and the Earthforce source book was not only missing the counters but a lot of the ship dia...

OK so now we know what the day has in store and I am certainly interested in the B5 RPGs and B5 Evo (and of course gaming with CC if I am luckily enough to get my name pulled out of the hat )

Day duly marked

Now to find my B5 T-shirt, dice (just in case) and of course my PPG to shoot anyone who gets in the queue first
