What next?

What are you going to release next, hopefully more advanced EA ships, The Nova Destroyer is a mighty fine ship except that it gets cut to ribbons by Sharlins. Are you going to concentrate of on earth ships at first or will you release Narn vs Centuari?

Small little whing, but don't Nova Destroyers have Beam Cannons? (see in the beginning, the first massive battle) having them might give a Nova destroyer little more staying power.

Yes...we've heard the argument for Novas and Beam weapons. We decided that its not really part of the official armament so we didn't put it in the MOD. There's only so much we can do.

I think that the next release will include an Nova-Beta model (a page from the AoG books) with some forward mounted Beam cannons (AoG says that they fit inside the plasma weapons so im good with that). Not a model change, just some stats and weapons. Who knows.

We have yet to fully plan out the next release....but it might be a focus on warships and with the intention of doing Earth, Minbari, Narn, and Centauri warships and then work on the smaller shuttles and that sort of thing later.

That might be too much for one release but we'll see.

I would like to see Shadow War or the Earth Civil War.

Or something custom, with Omega Epsilon (Shadow Omega) and Warlock, some imagination campaign perhaps? In "Babylon5 Wars" (that AoG strategy game) there is interesting scenario demonstrating how those two killing machines fight against each other.

Once we played, my dear Warlock beat the **** out of Epsilon and destroyed it in one turn. Unfortunately, it did same to me as well

AoG is great fun

Shadow War means we need ALOT of ships from all of the races. So thats going to be a while in the making.
