Default Re: Babylon 5 Mod

That has nothing to do with it... the development and build up stages necessary to get usable fleets is too long. The game doesn't have to have as many ships, have 100s of planets, nor reach the end of the tech tree, but it also doesn't need to take forever to reach resolution. In a galaxy with 100 systems (shudder at the thought of more...), it takes way too long before the game reaches the stage that war can be waged succesfully and the game can end. 80 turns for a spaceport facility without depleting your HW is excessive... and that is not a made up number in B5 Mod.
