Offical Sizes for B5 Ships

The Warlock project has official sizes for some B5 ships on their site posted by Tim Earls and approved by JMS.

1900 meters right?

Its basically the size of an Orion give or take a hundred meters or so. Awesome ship, awesome size

Wow, i thought the warlock would be alot bigger than an orion. That works for me though, smaller ships won't push my system too hard.

it's polys, not size that pushes on your system.

Saw those awhile back. BIG HONKING DRAKH SHIP!!!!

------------------
My signiture exist in many shapes and sizes at many different forums. this is not one of them.

The Bastion doesn't even have 80,000 polys!

The GTD Bastion, and Orion Class destroyer didn't even have 2000 polys

Actually, the size can be an issue of fill rates for your graphics card. There were some issues with the Colossus I think. But all in all, the polys are the number one deciding factor.

How about the relative size of the average
jump gate to say a colossus?

actually if you go to [url="http://www.wolfsshipyard.mystarship.com/SizeComp.html"]http://www.wolfsshipyard.mystarship.com/SizeComp.html[/url]

this has relative ship size comparison

You'll hopefully find our scale for the various ships is fairly accurate within some reason.

Ummm...9000? Nooo way.

The Golgotha is 2100 max.

Lots of ships in Wolf's Shipyard, are you gonna use any of non-canon ships?

A few. Tempest probably, maybe a couple others.

Most of the "non seen on the show" models will be from B5 Wars or ITF.

These Minbari ships are huge! Especially Void Seeker ships, whatever they are.

Here are two of the charts:

What's a Tempest?

Tempest is a heavy cruiser based on the same technology as Warlock destroyers.

Gotta go and try to get a good pic of it

They are smaller than Warlocks but can MAYBE beat Omega destroyer in a direct combat.
