The lost tales

[Da Boss]

Not necessarily - a few of the old models (like the starfury)could be salvaged,

Yeah. And obviously Vorchans were lost. Guess there just wasn't good enough fan-made model for vorchan like there was starfury/warlock...

Why is it "obviously" they were lost - ie why are they not a new ship - do you have access to addiitonal information that we don't or are you just guessing as well? I happen to think it would be cool to have a selection of new ships based on the film, others don't , others do.............

Strange how some things are "its in the show so it must be thus" except of course when "no thats just a mistake, thats not what they really meant, I know they did not mean it to look like that.............."

oh well guess it does not really matter.............

Well ISN is Interstellar News and that abbreviation is canon so ISA is fine I reckon.

LBH

ISN is canon, but ISA is not - watch Lost Tales and listen to Sheridan speak about em. :wink:

Well I have to wait till September for Lost Tales, but I wasn't meaning that ISA (pre Lost Tales anyway) was canon, simply that ISA makes as much sense for abbreviating the Interstellar Alliance as ISN does for Interstellar News.

So. They had to make the designs from scratch since original CGI models got lost.

Not necessarily - a few of the old models (like the starfury)could be salvaged, and they used those in the initial design stages for that peticular cgi-sequence. I guess the Vorchans are meant to look more evolved; it´s supposed to be a possible future after all.

SPOILER...

Actually one of the "new" Vorchans transports the Centauri prince to meet with Sheridan on the new Valen class cruiser...

BTW.... During this scene, was anybody else hoping Sheridan would blast the Vorchan out of the sky with the new cruiser???

Also the Vorchans in Sheridan's dream are firing anti-fighter guns mounted near the wings. Don't forget to add those to the list of changes. Its nice to see some CTA ships in the Lost Tales such as the Brakiri Tashkat Advanced Cruiser, Centauri Balvarin Carrier, and the Kutai Gunship.

[Romu]

Hm i remember seeing the tashkat but not the kutai and balvarin, i'll have to look again

 

[Da Boss]

saw the carrier in the background of the clip of the EA / Centauri battle

 

[MustEatBrains]

saw the carrier in the background of the clip of the EA / Centauri battle

Hell, I´ll have to look up the clip again - right now!

In the scene with the firing Warlock (before the pink nebula), it could be in the lower right corner - not sure though, the quality of the clip (I´ve looked it up on youtube) isn´t great

The Taskat was actually in the original series. You can see them in some of the grouped Brakiri fleet scenes when the Shadows are attacking them.

 

[bondp99]

the short battle scene covers some vorchans and warlocks, a kutai gunship, a balvarin carrier and somewhere in the background a battle between one primus battlecruiser and one Omega 8).
Didn't see a Brakiri Tashkat in TLT.

 

[Da Boss]

Thats the bit after the second warlock blows the "vorchan" away look to its right - Looks like Balvarin there :?:

 

[oneal]

I saw the Tashkat during the first part of the film - in the background of a couple of the station shots.

 

[Romu]

rewatched the scene and we indeed see a kutai and a balvarin in the background !

not that i wanted to see the kutai but still happy for the balvarin

And that vorchan+ is just nasty looking, i hope we get a miniature of it one day

 

[Smoot]

The new Minbari ship was called a Valen Class Cruiser, yet it looks quite small and had no visible weapons on it. Also, the crew all looked like religious caste. Is it a new courier or transport or is it an actual fighting ship?

Seeing the B5wars Centauri ships in the battle made me very happy.

 

[Chernobyl]

Well, I got my copy of "300" but the local FYE here did not get sent ANY copies of "B5: Lost Tales" in.

"I can't seem to find the new Babylon 5 DVD on the shelf that came out today - can you tell me where to find it?"

*looks at computer* "uhh...do you know which season it's supposed to be?"

I tell you, I wanted to jump across the counter...

[katadder]

dont think its out in UK until september

 

[Greg Smith]

I ordered my copy from Amozon US. With the dollar so low, it actually worked out cheaper than the UK version. Plus it should be here before September.
