White Star

Does anybody know if the White Star, Blue Star and Victory class Destroyer will be released as part of Release 2? If not then in what release will they be released?

I guess it is pretty safe to say that Omega will be in next release, also Whitestar and Bluestar MIGHT be, but the Victory won't.

Edit: Seperate releases will be used only in special cases, so don't expect us to release single ships, weapons, etc.
Patches are the special case howewer.

Actually, contrary to what everyone else said, those ships may be in the next release.

What an aweful name for the movie. I mean, I guess StarWars was never really litterary and everything was done on the literal level, but damn, they could come up with something better.

How about "Clone at the gates" or "Thin red clone"

Be carefull with your words...After all George lucas is half Portuguese...whoever messes with him messes with ME!!!!
The new moovie is called 'Clone attack'????!!! Thats a bit...simplistic. It gotta have a lot of fighting, Hope they got it all right this time...

Posted by Fuzzy Modem on 10-23-2001 08:40 PM:

Episode II is called "Attack of the Clones" This title was chosen over "Gaurdians of the Force" and "Clone Wars" don't ask me why...

Posted by Ghost Rider on 10-23-2001 09:48 PM:

One of the original possible names and my personal favorite was "Episode 2: Rise of the Empire".

And as for the main topic, I'd like to see the White Star in the next release. I think it would be way too early for the Blue Star, that ship was created after the ISA was formed, and I am assuming the next release will probably have to do with the EA Civil War?

Ok so as I understand it the next release has the Omega and the T-Bolt that's all I know. If it is indeed the EA Civil War then I suppose the WS should be there along with B5. I should also state that the Poseidon Carrier is from the Omega's generation, if it had been in the series it would have played a vital role in the Civil War so maybe you can have it for that next release?

Also a request, I know the series only showed the WSs engaging Clark's forces in every battle after "Severed Dreams" please take the artistic license and have EA Liberation forces also fighting Clark's Loyalists in the next release. I like the WS but I don't want it to be the only ship on my side in the next campaign.

And if it's not going to be the Civil War, then what is the next campaign about please?

Actually the 1st Posidon didn't leave the construction yeard untill almost a year AFTER the EA civil war, according to AOG.

Posted by Triggy on 10-23-2001 10:30 PM:

My take on the situation is the same as your's Ghost Rider. According to IceFire's .plan the second release is indeed to be on the EA civil war, with of course some Minbari involvement. Now, if this is the case then the White Star must be released as it is integral to to any plot used. If this means that extra time is required to complete the release then so be it but the core vessels NEEDED for this compaign in my eyes are:
Nova
Midwinter
Omega
Omega-X
Olympus
Orion
Starfury
Thunderbolt
Invader
Crew Shuttle
Freighter
Sharlin
Nial
Lintira
White Star
and of course...
Babylon 5!

This is not a demand but simply my view of the essentials.

Don't forgate the GOD platform. Black Omega 'Furys would be nice too.

Posted by Triggy on 10-23-2001 10:47 PM:

Yup, GOD platforms too (forgot). Black Omega Starfuries are essentially normal Starfuries with a different paint job (i.e. The pilots are no more skilled at combat) so shouldn't prove to be too difficult to make.

I thought black omegas had a rear turret and stealth technology too.

Posted by Triggy on 10-23-2001 11:04 PM:

Some may be modified badgers so a rear firing position is not at all out of the question but there is no evidence (that I know of) anywhere that the Black Omegas use any kind of stealth technology.

LOL, my guess is that a Black Omega's stealth is it's telepathic pilot. Once he sees the enemy all he has to do is mess around in the mind of the enemy pilot, rendering him incapable of fighting (much like what a telepath can do to a Shadow warship). Just a silly guess, I can imagine a telepathic pilot causing 2 enemy fighter pilots to shoot or ram eachother, lol. Imagine being able to control the enemy's mind, almost an unlimited advantage in combat there.

Posted by Ghost Rider on 10-23-2001 11:19 PM:

Fuzzy do you have the B5 Wars EA fleets book or something with the history of the Poseidon and all EA ships, I'd love to get it. It doesn't make sense that the Poseidon would be made a year after the Civil War. It wasn't a month after "Endgame" that the EA already had Warlocks, if the Poseidon was newer than the Warlock it wouldn't require a rotational section and would have been designed without one. Anyways that's what makes sense to me but I'd really appreciate if you could tell me where I can find more info on the Poseidon and EA ships from B5 Wars (books and such). Thanks.
