New Ships - What Would You Like to See?

[kritikalfailure]

More Skirmish choices for Crusade EA, an additional Patrol choice (not nearly as high a priority, as most races have 1-2 Patrol choices anyway) and a War choice that is semi-SFoS-Warlockesque (it's a word, because I just typed it, dammit).

Possibly some Battle and War choices for Early EA (requires a bit of retconning).

Armageddon choices for Drakh and Dilgar.

I would like to see a patrol level scout for the minbari in the shape of a great white shark with stats around those the vree's vaarl.

and twin link on every weapon so the stats match the minis (every weapon on the minbari miniatures is twin linked)(':evil:')


Jump point minis maybe like 4 to a pack, just a swirling vortex on a flying base would look pretty cool. Maybe it could even hook onto the front of a jump gate mini to show when its open or closed.

Some ridge-backed manta ray shaped patrol and skirmish level ships for minbari with shallow bubble-like turret mounts.

i think its time for the liandra and valen models as most people have stated they want them and it would help the isa with a bigger range of ships
i would also like to see they gaim and some more lesser lonaw to make there
fleets more varied and more stats/ships for dilgar war era ea + league and maybe 1 or 2 new dilgar ships too

How about the new Dilgar ships we were told were coming 2 months ago? :evil:

While some people believe the EA gets to much attension, and there might be some merit in that idea, spliting the EA list into three creates a real gap for patrol and skirmish levels for the Crusade list; and moving the warlock from war hurts the EA badly.

I'd like to see the warlock reduced back to the war level version; and have patrol or skirmish level crusade era ship.

Escorts and the like are the most common type of warship for good reason... the EA isn't going to waste a nemesis or warlock on antipiracy duties; the apollos need to much of a resupply train, the chronos lack jump points, and the marathons are unreliable right now.

Fluffwise the Hermes are ancient, and the EA should be thinking about a replacement... probably at the skirmish level.

I strongly agree the Warlock should be War level. The Nemesis with its added Shadow Tech should be a sort of super-Warlock in the same way that the Shadow Omega is a souped-up version of the normal Omega (the Shadow Omega should also be War level IMHO).

I also agree believe that the EA need some help at lower PLs in the crusade list. I get the impression that the idea was to make late EA a little bit like the Minbari by making them poor performers at low PLs. The problem with this strategy is that the EA are not as good as the Minbari at high PLs. A Sharlin would give an Omega CD the smack-down every single time. To be honest a single Sharlin could probably take on a Warlock or Nemesis with at least a fighting chance. That is a real problem with the EA list. Combined with the fact that all its boresighted weaponry weally needs you to field some initiative sinks to get anywhere with it.

yep return the warlock to war level you have changed the sag in s+p why not next issue a little paragrath saying warlock is back to signs and portents stats
