Wow, talk about a thread-stopper!

Does no one want to further discuss the facilities? Racialized facilities are a key to the flavor of the game, IMO.

Hi Grumbler,

I'm still busy with RL. Sorry. These days I'm nothing more than a lurker.
I'm of no use anymore. Damn, I'm getting old...

However, I'm still busy with a little mod of my own, it reaches more advanced stages right now. Give me another month or two, and there will be another mod for SE IV Gold. No promisses of course.

Till soon... I hope!

well i would certainly like to continue the work, unfortunally im busy with my own mod, too.

Grumbler, why dont you think up new racial facilites bases on the race instead of books or something. So Minbari would get research / tech facilites. Narn maybe combat or war based facilites...same for centauri.. ?! anyone ?

Just a quick question, has anyone expeirenced a problem with the comp AI? I've been playing a single player with the the B5 mod, and the AI never seems to colonize anything.

I don't think so, at least I'm not seeing any

Is the AI designing/building colony ships? I remember there was a bug some time ago that kept the AI from successfully designing colony ships, and it may have crept back in.

I have a question to all you Bab5 types out there. I've never seen the series, but I noticed tonight that netflix has up to season 5 and "the gathering" (whatever that is). Every now and then, when my wife is out of town, I have time to watch things like this. Realizing I might be asking the converted, Are these worth getting into? Is the long-term time investment worth going through all 5 seasons to the end? And how many seasons were there (I don't want to rent them if I can't follow it through to the end)? And what is the gathering? And please don't give me any spoilers, just the facts ma'am...

I tried FarScape and found it a bit too corny for my tastes. I much prefer linear and epic plotlines, with beginngings, middles, ends, and character development. Farscape really didn't seem to have that...I'm hoping Bab5 does...

thanks in advance for any advice,

Alarik

Only thing I can tell you for sure is that there were 5 seasons. I only got to see 1-2 shows which were pretty good.

There are a few movies made from Babylon 5.
The first is Babylon 5: The Gathering
The second is Babylon 5: In the beginning
"The Gathering" was the pilot episode and "In the beginning" is the story in a nutshell. The other movies are (chronological): "Thirdspace", "River of Souls" and "A call to arms", but there isn't a DVD Version of those yet (there will be in a short period of time).
There are 5 seasons of Babylon 5, but there are at least one season (I don't know how many) of "Crusade". Crusade begins with the end of season 5 of B5. The Earth is infected with a nasty virus and is quarantined, a crew is going to look for a cure. There is also a spinnoff which has the name "The legend of the Rangers". I've never seen anything from that serie, so I don't know how or what.
