Anyone know if the PDF is updated to fix all the problems with the original print version?

Well that sucks, I but most of my RPG books PDF these days.

Anyone know if the book is going to be available in PDF?

I can live with that, hexless wouldnt have been my first choice but it does have some perks. Thats good for those unfortunate souls who spent way too much on unplayable minis. So we wil have a fleet game with minis that are too large and awkward to put a fleet on the table. That was always...

Got mine. Pretty good book and a definate step up in production quality from earlier books.

If the game is supposed to interface with the RPG, then a slightly reworkrd version of the B5W system would be great. Otherwise it would depend on the scale of the game in question.

Looks like Bruce is eyeing another buy-back, not sure about quantity or variety. And if any B5 ships are to be made it would require new molds, the ones AOG was using were destroyed as part of the shutdown.

Actually the whole story is... Bruce (Agent 1) bought out the old AOG inventory from several distributors early last year and has been selling them quite legally ever since. I have ordered over $500 worth of stuff myself (at thats at about a 25% discount or more). For full details look at the...

AOG never specified time/space measurements in the 2nd Edition B5W books because of the long-winded physics arguments a number of technically minded people started when those details were given specific values in 1st Edition. That being said, your numbers sound as good as any other that has...

Considering that the book went thru approval and was signed off on by JMS, I doubt very much he cares in the least. And how about a big round of applause for Tillennium for showing us all how to be a proper troll and resort to the most pathetic and juvenile means of attempting to make a point...

An earlier post from Agent 1 said it was basically done on a "that looks good" basis. Personally I would like to see Mongoose resurrect the B5W system and edit it into a perfect starship combat d20 system. Its already pretty close and shouldnt be too hard to convert.

It is, but Bruce is on record in these forums as saying that the ship designs are generaly done on a "that-sounds-good" basis. A few key ships were evidently carefully converted from other sources (probably Babylon 5 Wars) and the others compared to it until the "that-sounds-good" point was found.

Cinematic for me.

There was a playtest rule in B5 Wars that explained that situation. Anytime a Shadow ship was hit with a sustained (a weapon firing mode that allows a weapon to continually hit a target over several turns) attack it would be incapable of taking any other action due to the pain and effort of...

Gotta love phantom posters, not even the courage to give a name to their rant. Oh well... While I do agree with some of the points above, none of the typos/gramatical errors bother me in the least. The issues with text repeating from one book to the next are (possibly) annoying, depending on...
