Halik/Haltona mini size

[Banichi]

I'm looking to put together a 5 point raid brikiri force, and I'm just a bit curious about the size of the halik mini. Does anyone know the wingtip to wingtip, and the nose to tail lenghts. It's just that in the photos I've seen it looks tiny, smaller than most skirmish ships. Thanks in advance to anyone who helps with this.

(Yes I know scale in the B5 universe is a bit all over the place, but 36 damage on a little ship thats smaller than a skirmish ship :?)

I don't have my brother's Brakiri to check right now but it's not a small model. I'd not agree that it's smaller than most skirmish ships anyway

It must be the perspective in the photos that makes it look so dinky. The avioki also looks little.

the Avioki is a fairly big ship so it must be the perspective

the Avioki is 7cm high by 5cm long

yep, avioki is 7cm high, and 5 i/2 long
and the halik is 5x5 cm

Cool, thanks for the answers guys Avioki always remind me of sunfish, it must be the big fins top and bottom. But then quite a few B5 ships from the show look like they were inspired by marine life.

yep the Minbari Angelfish and Centauri Manta Ray

any others?

I'd forgotten about the primus/stingray. The big vorlon cruisers look like giant space squid, but that goes without saying. I always kind of wondered how you would feed/fuel, a living ship of that size, and what would happen to the, um, for want of better word, the exhaust. Maybe they only went in hyperspace. Just one more peril of that other realm.

:lol:

that should be in the game as a Vorlon rear weapon! :lol:

Sorry Delta one, you can't come back into the hanger until you have cleaned your starfury.
