Nolo'Tar and Flyer

Burger

Cosmic Mongoose
Since the Nolo'Tar has a Flyer flight on board, does the Flyer enter the ISA fleet list, with the same stats as the Minbari one?

Hush! That almost sounds dangerously like common sense WRT ISA/Minbo ship exchange...

*shakes head sadly**

let it go man, let it go...
 
no, they actually probably used shuttles and freighters, they worked behind the scenes between Valen and Delenn/Sheridan. Only when the shadows returned, and the minbari were seen not to be takling action, did Delenn get the Religious caste to start making their own warships for use by the RANGERS, Not the minbari Military. And yes, they were supported by religious Caste crew, but the Whitestars were never official Military ships for the minbari, and likewise, the Rangers, up until Delenn never officially existed, so didn't get to fly around in sharlins, troligans, or any other front line Minbari warship.
The ISA already get to choose Allies, the Minbari wouldn't want to take allies, the Arrogance of the warrior caste has seen to that.

My ranger book gives a pre Valen fleet list and a post Valen fleet list

and the Drakh RPG book gives them shield ships, and temple ships, but they ain't getting them.

'minbari military' - completely redundant term. Just because the Warrior caste dont take help from others, doesn't mean the other two castes dont. There are effectively 3 militaries. And funnily enough, one of those groups is seen using the ships in question.
Mongoose's own fluff calls the Nolo'tar an 'outdated minbari ship', and the Rangers have been flying around in those sure enough.
Was the Victory ever an 'official military ship' of the EA? No. Funny how it's in their fleet list...
Ugh, I wonder why I even waste my typestrokes when it's clearly on film.
 
sigh. Their is clearly little point being logical here is their, you are determined to argue every point with conjecture and flimsy evidence

ok, you are obviously right, despite evidence to the contrary, the Minbari, one of the most powerful fleets in the game are crying out to use ISA ships so they can just wank all over every single other fleet

actaully, just thought, BAe co-made the SAAB Grippen, so it must clearly be in use by the RAF as well, bugger me, I never knew that.
 
please see Mongoose steeles Sig, when you complain at him, then you can come back and complain at me
 
I don't think that things which are shown explicitly, in living colour, in the source material is flimsy evidence, or debatable logic. That's just me.

Funny how it's well and good for the ISA to pick and choose ships the other way around to do what you so colourfully put. The EA too, in 2e apparently.
Heaven forfend that variable fleet options and different tactics should find their way into a fleet which relies on the ever-so-questionable stealth roll (which everyone complains about). Matt's introduction of the Unique stat was supposed to do this, wasn't it? (from S&P).
 
Oi you lot! This is supposed to be about the Flyer being inserted into the ISA fleet or not, since it is included in the Nol'Tar. If you want to whine about other things, get your own thread ;)
