Thank you.

1) I am not quite sure of what designs are B5Wars only. But we're planning to include quite many non-canon ships.

2) Yes because they are canon. But these are possibly in the same release as FirstOne ships (not including Vorlons&Shadows).

Going from the general story of the Brakiri though, I doubt they'd develop anything smaller than corvette class (which would double as a small frieghter during times of peace).

I seem to be doing lots of non-canon stuff:
The Tishat (light Minbari fighter, AoG), the Shn'Tan (Minbari Orbital Platform, Canned Sierra Game)... I might end up doing more I dunno.

a real neato ship to include would be the techno-mage ship

(size of this ship?........small enough to be a fighter?)

And I think that including non-canon ships is a VERY good idea.

JMS probably realizes that the fans continued interest in the B5

storyline might one day (not holding my breath) give birth to

a new show and/or a movie (sorry but i thought the ending of

legend of the rangers was kinda corny and obvious).

Might be interesting, but use should be limited; they are a shadowy bunch and do not like to leave their places of power, after all. The rules of not overusing powerful people/tech apply... The less they are seen and used, the better the story, generally.

Sure, if someone has the skill and good ideas to pull a story/campaign with great class, it would be very interesting. I don't think it could be used as a player ship though, it just wouldn't feel right...

JMS has said he would like to explore the B5 universe a bit more, and also a movie has been discussed in usenet now and again... Personally, I'd like to see Crusade continued, but unfortunately that's going to remain as just a dream.
