REVIEWS SOLICITED: Babylon 5

[FreeTrav]

I never had the time to become a Babylon 5 fan (nor have I had nor do I currently have cable TV), so I'm not qualified to write reviews of the B5-for-Traveller books. I'm therefore asking that someone else do so and submit the reviews to Freelance Traveller; in addition to commentary similar to that for the existing Mongoose Traveller reviews, I'd like comments on how well it's been made to mesh with the Traveller rules, and how faithful it is to the Babylon 5 series and universe.

If anyone chooses to try their hand at this, please send them to submissions@freelancetraveller.com, with a subject line indicating that it's a Mongoose Traveller B5 review.

I was supposed to write some reviews and writer's block and real life intervened. I publically apologize for not getting those done.

You know non-fan review would be useful on it's own right ;-) Would be nice to know what someone who doesn't know much about the series would think about B5-traveller.

This is true, and now that you mention it, I would not be averse to having such reviews ALSO.

I have heard that Mongoose no longer has the license for B5 roleplaying, is this correct? If so, I would be interested in hearing more about the situation, and its whys and wherefores.

It is true, the licence expired at the end of June, and basically Mongoose made the decision that the cost of renewing the licence wasn't worth it.
