Re: Favourite ship?
I don't think the Drazi ever won anything.
Win none, lose all would be better for them.

Re: Favourite ship?
I understand the design elements behind it... it just looks too much like a sun fish...Reliant121 wrote:Why dont you like the Sharlin or the Vree saucers? admittedly the Brakiri isnt all that good, but the others were.
As for the Vree - they're just saucers. Nothing overly special to me, there...
Well, strictly based on the performance of each ship on screen, the Shadow Ship, Minbari Cruiser, Omega Destroyer, White Star and Vorchan are pretty much the only ships that are good... cause they're the only ones that kill things with impunity...Deepcrush wrote:I don't think the Drazi ever won anything.

Re: Favourite ship?
I think the Vree saucers were a good ship because they 1) fit the design kinda ethic they were meant two and 2) stick consistant with the Vree/Roswell Alien explanation thing.
Although the Brakiri ship did look like a sunfish, that i will admit.

The Brakiri ship just looks like bad engineering.

... had to have been a government contractor ...

Now the Sharlin, personally, is a good design plus it looks good. in my opinion.

Re: Favourite ship?
The sail-like parts give the thing a large target profile, though.

Only from a flank. Fore and Aft, the Sharlin is thin as can be.Rochey wrote:The sail-like parts give the thing a large target profile, though.

Re: Favourite ship?
Quite true, but it's also easier to hit a target closing or moving away.

Re: Favourite ship?
Not if their stealth tech means you're firing manually and can only target by visual.

Re: Favourite ship?
Only part of the way through but I really like the B5 design. The b4 wasn't bad either.
How many Minbari does it take to screw in a lightbulb?
None. They always surrender right before they finish the job and never tell you why.
