Babylon 5 interest dropped to zero here in northern Nevada after Mongoose announced their end-of-manufacturing for miniatures. I had a good response before with my EA and ISA fleets. Now I'm looking to sell off or trade my Centauri to someone who will actually get some use out of it. All...

The swish (TM) can only be added with company permission. However, you can get a discount when painting the hull if you agree to advertise for three years and tour at least two alien worlds per year. :wink: Fin-man

Babylon 5 interest dropped to zero here in northern Nevada after Mongoose announced their end-of-manufacturing for miniatures. I’m performing a major cleaning of my hobby room to get some much-needed space, and rotate out items that will never see the light of gaming day. I am open to cash...

Nice looking models... I can't wait to see the actual minis. Fin-man

I wanted to add my thanks to Matt for being responsive, and quickly putting out the FAQ. I appreciate the great customer service! Fin-man

Most competitive? Brakiri! Fun to play? Brakiri! 8) In my opinion, there is no contest - the Brakiri are spoiled for choices, and have some awesome ships as well. 1) The miniatures look good. 2) Their ships have a 12" range secondary weapon (with AP!) 3) The Avoki :shock: (It's one...

Brakiri or Drakh? As a player who has both fleets, my suggestion would be... Both! :twisted: the Brakiri have some great choices, and are awesome miniatures while the Drakh are one of the few 'beam teams' left who can field a scary amount of ships inside their huge hangers... In the end...

Thanks for the answer, Matt. Now, can we please file that answer for the 2nd ed. B5 FAQ? :wink: (Coming soon to a website near you...) Fin-man

**re-reads rulebook, and blinks twice.** Nice catch, both to Silvereye and Court Jester. I had never noticed the lack of crew in the descriptions... I am interested to see what the MGP guys come back with in the new thread. Fin-man

Silvereye, I agree with the principle, but why then does the double damage trait (and only that trait) indicate it will, "...literally double all damage to a target, including the bonus damage caused by critical hits." (Emphasis mine.) I looked in 1E, and found the answer. On P. 10, under...

Silvereye, While I agree with you on the fleet carrier, the entire sentence structure is somewhat dodgy and can be open to misinterpretation. Do you have anything in the rulebook to back up your statement? While your supposition is a common sense extrapolation based on the double damage...

We were playing our first game of 2e this evening, and came up with two questions: 1) The entry for the 'Double Damage' trait indicates that it will, "...literally double all damage to a target, including the bonus damage caused by critical hits." However, the 'Triple Damage' and 'Quad Damage'...

Thank you so much for making these - they help immensely... However, ran into a missed trait in the Drakh - the Carrier has Carrier 2 trait in the fleet book, but it is not listed on the ship stats. A minor niggle, but wanted to report it anyway. Oh, and you are officially the MAN!!! Fin-man

I have the exact same issue with my rulebook, received last night. However, my fleet book does not share this flaw. (Go figure.) I will be contacting Mongoose about a replacement, as I agree that a £15 ($25 US) book should not have this type of problem. Fin-man

Chernobyl, [Mr. Burns mode] Excellent... [/Mr. Burns mode] I've been waiting for those cards for a while. Japan or Germany first? (PLEEASEE?) Fin-man
