My main Dilgar ships are:
the Ochlavita (5 minimum, 10 is better)
the Omelos (3 minimum, 5 is better)
and several Jashakar (You have the minimum, but more is better!)
Even though it does not work out point wise... try to build in Pentagon formations of 5 ships. You can then absorb the bonuses...
I find it is a functional school of thought.
From the angle you are looking at...
I would say:
1) Buy the Fleet Box
2) Buy one of each other model
3) Buy one blister of each Fighter type
4) Earth and GAIM need to buy even more fighters!
I find the Olympus and Artemis, and then later the Chronos, to do exactly what I need them to do. They are fragile ships, and races with too many beam weapons will eat them for lunch.
Lets be honest... how often does one use an Armagedon level ship anyhow?
Seriously...
Buy a Sharlin...
get 3 pieces of wire...
get a box of greenstuff...

I find that B5:ACTA straight up meets my needs the best.
I was a B5 Wars player in 1997 when it came out. When Fleet Action came out in the early 2000's I was done. I was pretty irrate about the scale and price change. I EBay'd my fighters thou, and got the smaller Fleet Action ones.
I...
I guess as an addendum... it matters what you typically play with.
I find 5 points of Raid is good for a quick tournament. In that I generally use 1 Battle, 1 Raid, 3 Skirmish, and 2 Patrol level approx.
I find that 5 points of Battle is good for a one off game. In this I tend towards 1 War...
Well here is what I did...
Each of the 4 main factions I have 20 points of Battle for, with a slant towards Earth and Centuari as they are my favorite factions from the TV show. The idea was to be able to support 2 players per faction in a prolonged campaign (10 points of Battle each). I have...
Same here.
I would drop a T'Loth as well, if it was not for the T'Rann variant.
I usually take a mixture of G'Kariths or Var'Nics over a G'Quan now. I am not sure what changed so much... but they are simply too weak to be effective against another Battle Level ship. I seem to remember them...
Well I had heard they were going to clear out everything - so I assumed that would be amongst the lot. I will mention it to my players, we have about 20 here, so maybe a few will bid on it :>
I have 2 Vikings and 4 Skyhooks from Galoob. I was waiting to get my hands on one from Mongoose - but I...
