Wheren't the Warlocks designt for using shadow-tech?
Maybe the shadows gave EA an AG system, but the knowledge was lost due to the war.

And as far as I remember the Centauri use ion-engines and have gravity on their ships. So there must be another than the minbari way!

And I think the Lumati have AG and the Marcab too, before the died out.
But the last two are just my guess.

Dunno if its true, but I read somewhere that the Brakiri generate gravity through propulsion.

If this is true their rooms must look funny. When the ship gets faster, you walk on the floor and when it slows down, you go on the roof (or however the "wall above our heads" is called in English). So there must be cairs on both sides of the room lol.

Through accleration, and the source is [URL=http://www.b5tech.com]B5Tech[/URL].

Don't take B5Tech too seriously, it does have nice load of information but how much of that information is really canon? Oh well, it's better than nothing.

Warlocks were designed around the basis of the Omega-X prototypes (which were then rushed into combat during the Civil War). Ultimately they do not have nearly as much shadow technology as the shadow Omega prototypes but I'm pretty sure they do benefit quite a bit from them.

The weapons are decidedly more conventional. The Rail Guns are an old weapon essentially...the Pulse and Plasma weaponry are upgrades and retrofits from older models, and the two Particle Beam cannons are roughly the same found on the G.O.D. Platforms. Apparently the Particle Beam weapons are among the most powerful beam weapons available however...

The Warlock in TBP will be able to stand upto a Sharlin. Its just not a clear victory for the Sharlin like it is over the Omega or the Nova...

Can B5 stand up against a Sharlin? And will there be two B5's, the intial one, and then the upgraded B5 with the advanced weapons grid (think that happened in season 2-3)

There's actually three versions of B5 weaponry.
Seasons 1-2, 3-4 and 5.

Most likely there will be three table entries but one model.

Drakh weaponry seems to be very powerful and one would only imagine that they also have AG.
