    Who the hell rides with a passenger on a ZX-11? :D That would be like having someone ride onthe back of my Speed Triple... :P

    Things We Do Not Love About B5 RPG (please get involved!)

    I think I'll take a crack at some of the things I think could be improved. People have already talked about space combat, so I'll go for the main system itself: Combat mods -- the ranged and melee mods are a hold over from original D&D. I'd like to see a non-class skill for combat, instead of...

    Robotics

    The impression I get is that AI and robotics exist, but that they have not seen the level of roll-out one might expect. There are a couple reasons I can think for this: an inherent, Luddite distrust of machine intelligence; a desire to avoid robotization in all sectors of life -- there were...

    Albuquerque, NM

    Thinking about running a B5 game here in Albuquerque. Figured I'd float this 'ad', see if anyone's in the region.

    The great questions of Babylon 5, which would you ask?

    What do you want..? Funnily enough, I always thought the Shadows were onto something...just crappy execution.

    Yet another reason to hate Wal-Mart

    And why is that? Wal-Mart seems to be the locus of a lot of hate, but why? It pays all of its workers better than mnimum wage, 82% of their workers have health care at some level, they provide cheap, high-quality goods -- that's good the poor. As for creating a non-competitive marketplace...

    Yet another reason to hate Wal-Mart

    More likely a problem with the distributor they are dealing with. If you're in the US, you might want to go through these guys: http://www.usacomicbooks.com/ I've found them to be pretty good on prices and quick on shipping.

    Who watches the show?

    Got hooked late in the second season while at the Defense Language Institute. Taped 'em all. Just bought the whole run on DVD from ebay for cheap. Best TV ever, with the possible exception of 'The Shield'.

    Looking for a group that wants to play Babylon 5!

    I've been thinking of porting into the Decipher system; it's a nice combo of d20, but with better probability mechanics. Oh,and we're in Albuquerque, NM; always looking for new people...

    Crusade and TV Movie Sourcebook(s)

    I would be interested n the same; I actually thought Crusade got off to a surprisingly good start, when you consider it usually takes a sci-fi show at least a year to find it's legs. LIke Firefly, Crusade came out of the gate with well-crafted, fully-fleshed out characters. So what if it owed...

    How much did Clarke know about the Shadows?

    He's talking to Morden in the incriminating communication they intercept with the Great Machine. LIsten to the voice...
