Default \'Dark\' Earth Alliance


Well, as someone who really likes having the EA in their games, I felt the following change was in order.

I always preferred the EA from BEFORE the 4th season overthrow of the Govt and the Interstellar Alliance. I guess I sort of root for the bad guys!

Anyways, I highly recommend replacing Sheridan with a picture of Clark (from his card in the B5CCG). For flavor, I also deleted the White Star from the Fleet Icon and made it more of a task force of Omega's. The White Star is still the CL's picture, but at least I dont have to look at it every time I make a fleet.

So, I highly recommend giving President Clark a try. Maybe someone can eventually do some appropriate AI Speech files for each variation...hehe..here's hoping!

Cool, Talenn.
I once asked Rambie to do nearly the same but he politely declined in fear for his live. He was nearly crucified by B5 fans as he tried it.
For the speech files, I'm currently working on a speech file for the EA and I hope it is up and running at Monday but it's awful lot of work. And the Torons, now with a ship set, are eager to join the race for galactic domination, too.

I wonder what it would be like to create a Psi Corps race with speech files based on the superiority complex Bester displayed in the show.

e.g. We don't want anyone to know about the weapons potential of Psi-Corps because then they would begin putting one of us on every ship. But whereas there is no great loss if a million normals are killed in battle, the loss of even one Psi-Corps member is a tragic loss...

Perhaps replace them with Warlock-class destroyers? Or an Olympus-class corvette?

The Warlock is already used as the dreadnought in the EA shipset. The Olympus-class corvette is the frigate as well.

(I don't know -why- that passenger liner is being used as the Heavy Carrier, though...)
