Well, AoG still exists, but they aren't allowed to produce the gaming books for B5 anymore.

On the site there is a message (right on the first page you get to see) calling for cold hard cash. well, I'm not greedy, but I am causious. So I won't do it, but this is (I think) one of the few ways to help them. If they attract enough publicity (banners, conversation, links) they might get a visit from a publisher (or they are at least in a better position to do business with a publisher).

Sadly, no. If you go to their website it says they went out of business 1 Nov 02.

Oh, ouch. Well, good thing I keep semi-regular contact with AgentOne from them. Damn shame they had to close their doors.

there is a B5 game in developement along the same lines as Into The FIre but a hell of a lot better graphically and gameplay wise, its called I Found Her, i know its a wierd name but u have to read the story line, which is very good might i add, behind the game to understand it http://ifh.firstones.com/ Its an independent game and its freeware (YAY) so they have no issues with the companies who know rights to B5.

There is a B5 mod/scenario for Freespace.
http://freespace.volitionwatch.com/babylon/







For more screenshots follow the link above.

I've played freespace 1 & 2 and they're real fun. Haven't tried the B5 ver but a friend of mine has and he says it's really impressive. Especially when the capital ships beams starts!

it is fantastic...

Unfortantly my freespace 2 cd died on me... ( yea I know I do not back it up at the time )

And since it is no longer available i have a lovely dead cd , box , and manual....

Grrrrrrrrr.....

Now if anyknows where i can legally get a replacement that would be great as the company has offered no help on this one.
