What do you think about the idea to add some zivilian ships to the mod?
Like passanger ships, Astroidminers aso.
Wouldnt it be nice to see some "trafic" around a Station? While flighing patrol you see freighter docking, passangerships jumping in/out.
Or maybe some scienceships?

I allready got an idea for a Miner and a passengership. When I find the time to model them I will post a pic here.
So what do you think of the idea?

I think that at least the Asimov liner ship will be in the next release.

And BTW, it's civilian, not zivilian

Ships seen in the show will be in the mod sooner or later, perhaps most (if not all) independent and corporate ships (civilian) will be in the next release.

Yeah... that'll easen the job of mission designers on figuring out what kind of missions they will do...

Then we will always see : Raiders have ambushed a civilian transport <Insert name here>, we have to escort it to safety, kind of missions... or at least something like that.

Giving people more options should allow people to exercise their creativity as they see fit

If people have less imagination then these "standard" missions will be a frequent sighting but better missions should also be a more common occurrence as people can do exactly what they want to do.

Construction Furies, Liners, Transports, Couriers....there are a number of different ships in the B5 world that we can build and I definately want to have them so we can make the ship diversity in a mission as good as we can make it.

Zivilian ships, thats a new one.

I believe the Raiders will be in there. Raider fighters were surplus Narn design, weren't they?

Zephyr is already there.
Raider Mothership
Raider Battle Wagon.
New Raider fighter (design unknown at the moment)
Perhaps new well armed Raider command ship.

Last two are open to debate, AoG has some designs but new ones are welcome if they are better than AoG ones.

Zephyr is not Narn designs. It is an old Earth design. Originally designed for Belt Alliance to fight against pirates and raiders.
Raiders traded or bought weapons from Narns.
