General Chat

[EAS_Intrepid]

So here's the General Chat area for B5AOE. Any discussion can take place here, unless there is another threat for that specific discussion (like the mod change threat)

Not to nit pick but I though that the Novas weren't introduced till the Earth-Minbari War. I believe the first one was on its first cruise with the EAS Prometheus when the war started.

Yes, heard that before from Atlantis.

Excuse me?

The Omega was not introduced until after the E-M war. I said the Nova was introduced in 2222, after the Dilgar War, not the Minbari War. However, I got mixed up, 2222 is before the Dilgar War. And the literature I have (B5Wars Dilgar Invasion) shows Nova (Alpha Model)s being in use.

About that Dilgar Cruiser. I like it, but I still prefer the other Dilgar style, from the B5Wars series.

Sorry, Atlantis. If I did offend you please apologize. Looks like I mixed my memories a little... (2248 the Omega was also not introduced, somewhat later. 2245 the EM War started I think and 2248 it ended at the Battle Of The Line)

I actually prefer the ItF designs, but I suppose the B5Wars Dilgars (http://www.meshweaver.com/frames/Portfolio/htms/aog.htm) are more common...
The ItF Dilgar ships looks more like B5, if you ask me.

I pefer your Dilgars Intrepid. I personally think they look better than the B5Wars ones. :)

[Atlantis]

Hmm, ok then.
Well, Intrepid, I've begun scanning my Dilgar War books, and have done about 15 of the pages (we're looking at maybe over 100 here).

[EAS_Intrepid]

I will do something politicians prefer. I will do a compromise of B5Wars and ItF designs. I will see what comes out then.

And Atlanits, thanks for providing it! :thumbsup: 8-)

Excuse me?

The Omega was not introduced until after the E-M war.

You are right, officially, but there are several Omega's visable in battle scenes in the movie "In the Beginning". B5Tech suggests these may have been prototyes based on the Nova Design and are therefore kind of a Nova-X.

Rod.

[EAS_Intrepid]

Yes, the Nova-X. But it is about 20 years after the Dilgar War...
Like the refit of the Forrestall class Aircraft carriers or the refit of the Su-27 Interceptor to a full multirole combat aircracft Su-33 Flanker.

I just looked through the poll here and at A2F about the Dilgar and saw, that there might be a draw or a one-vote majority might be optained. So I thought about a pack of ships of the other loosing option that will be an alternative.
Means, that when the AoG design fails in the votes, I might release a pack of ships later on (or ask a modeller if he would do these AoG designs) as replacement of the ItF ships. Otherway around, too. But then I would look out for a modeller to make the AoG ships officially for the mod realease :wink: .
