About that whole Omegas v. Sharlins number debate: Remember, (I read this somewhere) that the Sharlin hull had been in service for what, a millenium? Yeah, in 1000 years, you can build a ton of ships. Even if some were 'mothballed' I bet with the proper motivation (say, a hotheaded EA commander blasting several of your leaders into bits) they'd find volunteers to reactivate, update, and crew those ships pretty fast. I'd think the Minbari have more Sharlins simply because they've been using them so long.

Of course, there could be some Minbari 'cultural' thing where they hit a certain number of Sharlins, then scrap an old one as they build a new one, keeping their fleet constantly new and up-to-date, at a certain number of hulls...kind of like recycling over and over and over.

See? This is fun to argue about, since nobody's wrong
