Re: Babylon 5 Mod

I got the green light from the Fire on the Suns license owner to work on a multi-player tactical combat game. I'll finish up all the Hyach images and include all the DoGA stuff used to make them. ...

Re: Babylon 5 Mod

The B5W Ships of the Fleet book is good for that kind of trivia.

The turn 5 invasion of Narn failed with the bloody destruction of both invaders and defenders (both Narn and Gaim are wicked ground...

Re: Babylon 5 Mod

Just using the mass drivers as pea shooters to wipe out the stubborn parts of the Narn resistance without destroying their economy or biosphere. Glassing them from orbit is easy, controlling their...

Re: New features I would like to see>>>>

Previously mentioned ground war would be nice, but when you start factoring in orbital bombardment and other concepts, it can get rather hairy. "Nuke 'em from orbit" seems to be SOP.

There is a ton of info that you can glean from Milkshape's forums and links sections. I've even seen AVI based tutorials for Milkshape there. I find using a pure vertex based editor like Milkshape...

Re: Babylon 5 Mod

A good friend just sent me a couple of B5W books. As depressing as it may be, JMS likes AoG, so I guess I'll give AoG's Version of the Hyach a try.

Re: Babylon 5 Mod

&gt; Love the Hyach ship, really neat style!

Thanks.

&gt; The only thing I have about the Hyach is a

Written in stone?

One of my pet projects is to port over my favorite paper space empire game to SE IV.

One question that came up is the ability to evolve that game as it is played. One of the capabilities of...

Re: Babylon 5 Mod

I think I'll give the Hyach a go. Both Steve and Mike are creative, if terribly slow, modellers. Regular Hyach Posts might motivate Mike (the LW user) to post more Gaim designs.

Re: Babylon 5 Mod

One of the perks to making ship sets for the lesser known races is that you can let your imagination run wild and there is no 'canon' material to say that you're wrong.*

Is there any race that...

Re: Affiliate Program

Heh, didn't know that you had an affiliate program. When/If I convert Fire on the Suns to SEIV, I know Greg Eliis will be interested in it.
