Greetings. This seems like the right place to ask this given the level of knowledge some have in this forum. I've never read the short story "Hidden Agendas" by JMS but according to b5tech.com "Hidden Agendas" states that the Warlock Destroyer has some Shadow technology in it. Does any know...

Thanks. Personally, I think the biggest mistake was to send the military in the first place and/or not assign a first contact specialist. Placing such a delicate matter in the hands of an organization coming of a War that has just placed it on the mantle of apparently unbeatable foes was...

Ahhh....my mistake. In any event, it could be argued that you never turn your back to a potential foe. I'm guessing the Earth Captain (why the heck can't I remember his name) didn't want to turn his back since he felt he was in danger. Besides, most Earth ships have poor rear defense. Just...

Again, he wasn't able to run away because his jump engines were being jammed by the Minbari scanners. He had know idea if the Minbari were faster in normal space, but they sure looked advanced enough to be. In the end, as soon as his jump engines were online he did retreat. He really did...

There is another rule of engagement that says fire first if in danger, and given that Earth intiated it's involvement in the Dilgar War with a premptive strike, I would say the "shoot first" part might have been the norm. Like I said, If my jump engines are being jammed, my scanners can't lock...

Good day all. I am going to attempt to adapt the cultural training I received in the Army (may or may not work) in order to add my two cents. Off the bat, the Earth captain DID exceed the limits of his orders, which were to gather intel about the Minbari and report back (I can't remember if...

While we're on the topic of hyperspace, I was wondering about a few things. Larger ships can create their own jumpoints in and out of hyperspace. It would be feasible that they travel along a beacon so they have a general idea of where they are going. But how do they know where to jump out of...

Thanks for the info on the Hyperion fighter bays LoneStranger. El Cid (and anyone else who'd care to answer) what are good ways to keep the PCs busy between missions so they could gain a little experience? I'm defienatly going to do fighter drills, but I need other things.

I bow before the mighty psyclonejack :shock: That does help me. I never even considered having something like drills, yet it would be a way to give players a little experience between missions. I was also considering introducing something like a prototype fighter. Would it be feasible to...

I was looking into the possibility of involving rather questionable orders into the campaign. The PCs are officers with pilot skills, so I was planning on them being Starfury pilots on a Hyperion. They are friends with the squadron commander and the captain, so they get the low down on the...

Good day all. Not new to RPGs, nor Babylon 5, but I am new to the Babylon 5 RPG somewhat. Visited the web site, saw the forum, decided to register and post. I will soon be a GM for the first time and I am working on a set of scenarios. Fortunatley for me, the players all have EarthForce...
