    Usage of Defence Value in the Techno-Mages Fact Book

    Well, as the author of the Techno-Mage Fact Book, I can assure you that I do know the difference between armour in D&D and in the B5RPG. And the bonus of shields to DV is correct. There are also spells that increase DR, and when used in combination with other mage defences, they can make a mage...

    The Techno-Mage?

    Read it again. I said: I did not in any way state the Gaim were telepaths. What I said was the Vree were telepaths, which is stated in the B5 Main Rulebook, p.172.

    The Techno-Mage?

    From the "more information than you really wanted" department: Techno-mages must be vertebrates with a generally humanoid form and nervous system. The tech that gives them their powers must conform to this basic standard. The race must not be inherently telepathic, because mages and telepathy...

    The Techno-Mage?

    You can't multi-class into the techno-mage class. As anyone who's read the books knows, you have to start training from a very young age, and techno-mage implants aren't just something you can jam into your body whenever you want. If you want to be a techno-mage, it's a life decision. Also...

    The Techno-Mage?

    It's a full class. In fact, it may well have the longest character class description ever. :)

    Centauri Republic on Amazon.ca

    I noticed that the other day and reported it, but no response. Personally, I think they mixed up the entries for both the Earth Alliance and Minbari Federation fact books. The Earth Alliance book isn't even listed, although it's been out longer. Of course, Amazon also has entries for the Babylon...

    Just Curious - GROPOS

    Well, it also helped that the person who wrote the Earth book (me) also worked for AOG before its closing and was intimately familiar with the GROPOS product line. I added a few units--the fixed wing aircraft, ground turrets, cargo vehicles, and seagoing craft--because those things never came up...

    Need Info/Help With Earth Fleet

    Once, when we were still working on the Earth Wars book for B5W, we actually asked JMS how many Omegas the EA had in their fleet. He said something like (don't quote me): "I don't know. Hundreds." About that same time, we were still reeling from our printing of actual physical stats for ship...

    Rules clarification , please .

    Crud, that's entirely my bad, too. What was I thinking? I know better, but I see from my original submission that I put down "skill" instead of "feat." Worse yet, I reference it several times as a skill in other places...crap. (Heads off to reread the Techno-Mage Fact Book one more time for...

    A question for Agent One

    No, you're probably right, but whoever did that book cover didn't use our mesh. Besides which, if it was a copyright violation, it wasn't our concern. We (AOG) had no reason to police WB's copyrights. IIRC, I notified them of the similarity of this image to the ship we used in our books (for...

    Conversion from Babylon 5 Wars to Babylon 5 (D20) RPG

    Sort of...it's no longer being made, but pop over to http://b5wars.net and go to the general discussion forum, and look for the topic "Would anybody buy miniatures?" I basically picked up a distributor's stock and have been selling it off. More info and instructions can be found there.

    EA Factbook - Help!!

    Shoot, now you've got me all confused. I think I'll let Mongoose tackle this one (and apologies in advance if I got it wrong in the book).

    A question for Agent One

    I can't help you...all those images are copyrighted by Warner Bros. I could not give you permission even if AOG still existed. This isn't about me making a decision, it's a simple matter of copyright laws. Did you know every time AOG printed a book, we had to get permission from WB to use any...

    Season 2 campaign, like Fiery Trial?

    The plan is to basically pick up where the last one left off, and run through season 2. There will be links to various episodes, just like Fiery Trial did. However, the main focus will be 3-5 separate scenarios that link together and unfold in a season-long arc that should keep the players well...

    Season 2 campaign, like Fiery Trial?

    I've basically agreed to write the sequel to Fiery Trial (thanks for the offer, Matt!) but first, I have to get this pesky Technomage supplement out of the way. The trouble with Technomages is that once you get their attention, they're very hard to get rid of... :)
