I'm still waiting for the first sighting of the narns I ordered march 27th over here.

I have to agree that the G'Quan and its variants just don't match up the the oposition and seem to need something. On the fighters, I think on base stats, the Narn fighters are in the middle of the pack - neither terrible nor awesome, if the enemy possesses the fleet carrier trait though they...

Owning Narns (I'm reluctant to say playing as I've still not ever actually played the game :shock: ) I looked at the new fighters rule and winced, since most of the narn ships can be attacked like most other races ships of one PL higher, and the T'Loth(9 at raid!), T'Rann(9 at raid!), T'Rakk(5...

I'd think the license prohibits others from selling babylon5 miniatures, thus when it was suggested perhaps others could take over whole-hog, matt said it was clearly out of the question. Whereas if mongoose were to have someone else handle production but remain the sole point of sale for...

In my imagination, I'm already dreaming of someone like PP taking over production and the new models actually having "oooh, thats nice!" type quality (as opposed to a range between "What the heck?" and "meh, its ok", while also being produced in good time/quantity and from more local facilities...

Something like 12 years ago I played maybe five of GW's games and was interested in some of the others, the support till then had been great with lots of additions and improvements, rather than outright changes. Within the space of about a year they outright scrapped several of them, rendered...

I believe the person saying that they re-made earth as Delenn would have wanted it, then turning to energy was meant to be the last human leaving earth before the sun went supernova (and taking all of recorded history with him) however many millions/billions of years on that is, humanity having...

Well the G.E.G. on Drakh ships reduces the damage from each weapon to hit the ship by a fixed amount, with the exception of critical hits if I remember rightly ? and the mines on most of the gaim ships are split into multiple banks with a small amount of AD each and of course can't critical, so...

Originally there was one terrible cast and three sub-poor casts, I sent the box back, and they returned it with the terrible cast replaced, thus where I am today :wink:

So, to date I've never played a game of ACtA, since I set myself the task of getting the ships painted first, though I've read the rules, fleet lists and watched a few games, so feel I have a basic grasp on things at least. Now to date my painting has amounted to most of a G'Quan, since its not...

I think that while it may have been true that the narn fleet in 1e were tougher than pretty much anything else, in 2e they seem to me to be consistently average/little above average with a few particularly tough ships as exceptions, where most of the other fleets vary more between being tough...

Very cool 8) and probably better than the studio metal G'Quans :wink: (at least with the poor castings they have at the minute.. :( )

The Gaim skirmish level shuuka PDF actually lists the stats of the battle level Shruuta. :wink: The Narn Var'Nic appears to be missing in action. Nice sheets, I can see myself sliding some of these into A4 plastic binder pages so I can have re-useable sheets with the minimum effort :D Edit...

Wrote a couple of pages of analysis, decided I was overdoing it, saved it off and starting over a bit more simply. So, lets see if I have this right. [1] Shadowfighters lose dogfights, because they are almost always severely outnumbered or outfought, or both. [2] Shadowfighters survive normal...
