I still dream of the day when babylon 5 will be made in to a remake movie series like they did star trek. I think the the babylon 5 universe is far more fitting setting for the fast action shoot em up testosterone pump that star trek ever will be. Brand recognition is far lower for B5, so don't hol...

I'm trying to wrap my head around telepathy so here some questions just to clear things up. Telepathic communication is considered deeper then regular right? Is this a just a loroi opinion or is it widely accepted? If a telepath is eager and excited to tell a story will that eagerness and excitment ...

I think the horrible tacked-on anti-climactic final season of B5 and the craptastic Crusade follow-on series pretty much killed the B5 franchise. Exactly. As far I know, at first they thought the series would be cancelled after season 4, so they jem-packed all that they had planned story-wise for t...

Im also think about the fact that we are quite used to read between lines, and differ info from other things like behavior, body language, etc for a society that can basically interact with telepathy (and probably rely heavily on it) with all other species, that we can gather a lot of information f...

After her predecessor was killed in action, Greywind was elected by the Diadem, and then had to put down a coup attempt immediately after. The leaders of the coup alleged that Greywind and her Mizol contacts somehow deliberately planned to get Emperor Eighth Dawn killed by somehow manipulating inte...

Dude if you think that was bad i can't imagine what you think about the legend of the rangers .

Wouldn´t bet on that one. I´ve re-read the history of the war again (it was updatet end of oct ´12, while the insider-sitemap still indicates 2011 btw), and yes, they retreated when the first wave of the bugs came in. But they launched a counterattack just before the fall off Seren in 2140, so they...

B5 is a great, but sadly hugely underutilized, setting.

Oh god yes please don't remind me.

One question about the barsam.

How fast is their regeneration?

Are talking about a few hours or days (depending on the injury of course)?

Plain old Wiki will give you a good picture of the events that led to the war. It's just that many people see the ACW in terms of "evil slaver South attacked the good liberal North for no reason", which is totally false. I never thought the north was that innocent to begin with. Abraham himself sai...

Hahaha, yeah right :roll: History is written by the victors. And you have evidence that contradicts this? ;) It's heavily OT, so here's the short version: Union government refused the secession of the Southern states as illegal, declined to accept a peace treaty offered by the South, wouldn't negot...

True but that was because the south attacked first.

You'll note that they were invaded. Texas was a free country that voluntarily joined the United States, much more similar situation. While american history is not my strong point. I'm pretty certain that texas was not held at gunpoint when asked to join the US. And i'm most certain they can leave t...

The next post that contains an insult will result in the closing of this thread. If you can't make your point in a civil manner, don't post. There is no excuse for insults and personal attacks, no matter what "the other guy" said first. I'm sorry i'll edit my post. I let my temper get the best of m...

Then we're doomed. If we're so pig-headed that we can't accept not being top-dog for a while then we don't have an option that will work. Thankfully I think experience shows you're wrong and people will accept just about anything given the proper packaging. Our history is rife with situations FAR m...

If she becomes mentally incompetent or infirm, then she is placed into the military health care system, where either she will be restored to health and active status, or else she will be cared for until she dies. Which of course doesn't necessarily means of natural causes. If it does i'm sure someo...

The only trick is that they claim that we refused to ally and they were simply carrying out their non-neutrality actions. Of course that's small consolation when Mozin is probably already spreading the word about humans. I can see the Loroi going that route, though only if we force them to, what's ...

Not at all, once the war tapers off and the push for population subsides most civilians are automatically out of the running from my understanding. There will be plenty of jobs that a Loroi can make a living at here that won't qualify them as reproduction-worthy in Loroi space, from ditch digger to...

I don't think the numbers will be that significant, won't stop human supremacists from whining, but in the end it won't be a big deal. You alien lovers make me sick! :evil: (damn it we need a grumpy smily) Free market, offer a better product and the customers will come back. Yes but we can atleast ...
