Anytime Triggy
I've got 5 books from AoG, from B5 Wars I've got: the Atlas of the EA Wars, the Coming of the Shadows and the Dilgar Invasion. I also have 2 additional books from Fleet Action My Enemy, My Ally (EA and Minbari) and To the Victor (Centauri and Narn). Any info you need, let me know.

Edwin, AoG are the Agents of Gaming, they develop RPGs for mutliple universes the most famous of their products being B5 Wars. Each race has very expanded fleets and histories which are quite an interesting read. Though much of their stuff isn't completely canon (seen in the series) all of their publications have been deemed official in the B5 universe much like the Centauri Trilogy novels, the Psi Corps novels and the Technomage novels. I don't play the games but I do collect the books for informational purposes. B5 Wars is an RPG played simulation starship combat in a small group scale of about 10-12 ships per player. Fleet Action is an expanded version which allows large scale combat and lately they began releasing GROPOS missions for planetary warfare.

I have the Rules Compendium and Ships of the Fleet and both provide good information on how to play, B5 history and ship details but I was wondering, how much stuff is included in the Fleet Action books (talking about history)? I would only buy these for personal use, I don't actually play the games but I was just wondering.

Any idea where to get AoG stuff in Europe/Germany? Would real be interesting.

The Aog main site [url=http://www.agentsofgaming.com/]Agents of Gaming[/url] ought to cater to your needs and they ship internationally.

Alternatively there is a German company [url=http://www.tellurian.de/]Tellurian Games[/url] located in Dortmund that stocks AoG products and may be a better choice for you.

The Fleet Action books have actually an expanded history over what's found in the B5 Wars supplements. The good things about the B5 Wars books is that they display in detail the mission by mission of the campaigns they have, but there is not real race history in the B5 Wars other than a slight overview. The Fleet Action books don't have scenarios or campaigns in mission by mission but they do have the race histories, in To the Victor, the Centauri section explains everything from their extermination of the Xon to their curretn state in the ISA.
The only thing missing from AoG is information in the post-ISA eras, because they didn't acquire the rights to Crusade. So their info ends upon the creation of the ISA, meaning no Dra'kh War nor Victory Class Destroyer in the games. But personally I wanted the exapnded fleets and histories more than that, so I got what I was looking for.
