I see Ships of the Galaxy has been moved back a month just a week before it was supposed to come out. How surprising. :roll:

great book.

Parts of them will (such as the stat blocks for ships, as we will likely have a new system for them) but we wil make this as painless as possible. For ships, for example, we will have all major ships (with new stat blocks) in the main rulebook. Every other ship that has ever appeared in B5 (and our past supplements) will be updated in one volume, Ships of the Galaxy - a mighty tome that will look so pretty, you are going to want it anyway
That, I believe, will be the biggest change in terms of existing supplements - we will likely have a small chapter in the main rulebook devoted to other changes needed to supplements if, indeed, that much is needed.

Disappointing but not entirely surprising. I'm curious though, whether every ship that has ever appeared in a B5 supplement is actually in there, as Matt posted in the Things We Do Not Love About B5 RPG (please get involved!) thread.

Actually, that's a good point, as I haven't seen a list anywhere of what races have ships that appear in the book.
Does anyone have a list of what races have ships in the book? It is just the main ones (Minbari, Human, Narn, Centauri, League) or are there some others in there as well?
