    Minbari vs Centari?

    The first fight I fielded a sharlin, tinashi, Morshin, teshlan and leshath at battle 5 which gave me 14 nials, 2 flyers. the fighters were the only thing that did significant damage against his all hull6 fleet of an octurian, 2 primus and 2 altarians. He missed 2 stealth rolls the whole game...

    What do Minbari Players Want?

    I have been playing the minbari in the 14 player campaign in Reno, NV for the past 2 months and actually fighting all the other races with campaign rules. So can say with certainty that ANY race that takes the paltry time to lower stealth can kill any level minbari ship in 1 round. (and stealth...

    Minbari vs Centari?

    My minbari just got seriously spanked by the centari twice in a row (battle 5 & 4) and I'm not seeing how I could ever beat them. First they almost all have 6 hull and big damage weapons that all have longer ranges than mine, scouts and fighters effectively eliminate stealth leaving my paper...

    Some General Campaign Questions

    Our campaign organizer witnesses all the refit/duties chart with nobody else around. And he keeps records of everyones ships/damage/refits/resources.

    Centauri Blockade Run

    its much easier to take as large a ship as possible to maximize your survivablilty. I have run it a couple times with my paper minbari, and taking several little ships as opposed to a big one tends to help the blockader more than you...unless you can field a swarm of 15-20 bitty ships.

    What did the Minbari ever do to mongoose?

    Why is the station for the "beam weapon race" one of the only 2 stations in the whole game WITHOUT a beam? for the same cost I can have 2 sharlins with which i could kill ANYTHING in 1 round. having just done 71 dmg with a single beam attack this week in my campaign.

    Help with starting Minbari

    I have found that I have never needed to field more than 2 of the leshaths ever at one time so just clip the turbine off of one the leshath models from your reinforcements box and you have a tigara for free, and most non-minbari players are so afraid of us that they will never let you field...

    ACTA - "stand down and prepair to be boarded" SA

    In the SA "stand down and prepair to be boarded" it states that all the the "SHIPS" in the action must have a total starting damage greater than the crippled ships starting damage. The way I interpret this is that 1 of your ships tries the SA while several ships are within 10 inches of the...

    advanced jump point

    Um it states very clearly in the book that only ships that start "on the table" can be in a squadron, and that only ships without JP or AJP can use another ships JP, otherwise they all have to use thier own. My campaign runner says this is because the ships are too big. I need some "Official"...

    What did the Minbari ever do to mongoose?

    Then give the flyers mini beam, as they aren't dogfighters. and the vorlons still get precise on theres.

    What did the Minbari ever do to mongoose?

    Then the Minbari should have an ability to raise their FAP by 1 just like the dilgar can lower the opponents by 1. call it Zealotry or something like that. And thinking the minbari wouldn't learn any new tactics after fighting for and against the EA for 10 years (or the 1000 since the first...

    What did the Minbari ever do to mongoose?

    Try reading a bit back into this thread (which I made just so I can rant) where I say that I just started playing. Then you should find out that Im playing in a Battle 10 campaign with 13 other people. and when almost every other race gets a handful of patrol level ships that can gain XP dice...

    First impressions and some questions

    yes every auxilary craft destroyed gives 1VP it's just that fighters can't get XP dice for killing other things-even if they are from a bigger ship, and you don't get XP dice for killing them. so remember to soften with fighters but cripple and kill with 2 seperate ships if you can, to maximize...

    What did the Minbari ever do to mongoose?

    But each 1 can still only hold up to 3 fighters in a dogfight, and in a campaign you arent just choosing what you want for each battle. And if your 5 fighters are scared of 1 tishat you are really lame...all you need to do is fire 10 dice at it from outside of dogfight range...only 1 roll...

    What did the Minbari ever do to mongoose?

    Then how about giving me 3 flgihts of Tishats in a patrol so i can at least be competitive in dogfighting?
