It isn't impossible you know (well at least I think it isn't) -- It will be easily done by just disabling the new weaponry :] Or changing what the turrets spill at you...

Just disable some turrets or change the weapons. I intend to make a Signs and Portents mission sometime in the future.

B5's weapons also have a massive range, so it can pound warships before they get close enough to do much damage.

As far as I can tell B5's weapons have a similar range to the heavy weapons on capital ships and probably not as far as most beam weapons. Once you get over a certain distance, effective range becomes a matter of targeting not the "theoretical" range of the weapon. The targeting issues mean that effective ranges of over a few kilometres are rare in B5 but certain lasers seem to have ranges of many hundreds of kilometres if fired at a stationary target.
