    Is Garibaldy responsible for the fall of Centaury Prime?

    I figured those were the Centauri ships with actual Centauri personnel aboard. As they were escorting a Centauri civilian ship and I presume it might've raised questions if the civilians had tried to contact their escorts and not received a reply. Personally, I doubt sending in a bunch of...

    Is Garibaldy responsible for the fall of Centaury Prime?

    I did not think there were any indications Garibaldi was drunk during that part of the conflict. IIRC, he found out about the Narn and Drazi ships had pulled out of combat zones and presumably were headed for Centauri Prime and immediately notified Sheridan. It an earlier episode , when he...

    New Bab5 zealot here

    In the novel, doesn't Londo provoke one of the Drakh into revealing where the "keeper" attached to David Sheridan came from? When the Drakh admits that it came from him (the one talking to Londo), Garibaldi literally emerges from hiding and kills the Drakh. Thus causing the "keeper"...

    Two Big Crusade Questions

    In the end, everything regarding Babylon-5 comes down to the Shadows at some point doesn't it?

    Two Big Crusade Questions

    I've read all the links people have given me to the unanswered questions regarding Crusade. To the links about the unfilmed episodes and stuff. Two big questions that I would like to have answered: 1) What was the Apocalypse Box? What was its goals? Why did it lie occasionally? 2) What...

    Crusade

    Some questions I've had about Crusade: 1) According to the wikipedia, the Technomages were going to turn out to be former servants of the Shadows who had rebelled against them. hardly a big surprise there. But what was their ultimate goal? 2) What was the Apocalypse Box? Was it a life...

    Crusade & Legends of the Rangers-I've Asked This Before

    Perhaps similiar to the aliens encountered on Babylon-5 that attached themselves to hosts and were dedicated to collecting information and knowledge. The Apocalypse Box could've been a very old variant of that.

    Crusade & Legends of the Rangers-I've Asked This Before

    Sounds like he was going to go the "Blakes 7" route. Anyone have an idea about what the Apocalypse Box was supposed to be? I have heard somewhere that it was supposed to be older than the Shadows even. What was it? The leftover essence of one of the departed first ones?

    Crusade & Legends of the Rangers-I've Asked This Before

    It has come to my attention recently that the "Drakh Plague" part of the storyline was going to be resolved in the second season of Crusade. What was going to crop up after that?

    Crusade & Legends of the Rangers-I've Asked This Before

    I know I've asked this before, but will we ever get to see the resolution of the Crusade storyline onscreen? Or the Legend of the Rangers storyline? I'm so hoping to one day see Crusade revived that right now I would tolerate seeing a recast of the characters.

    Why Is Earthforce Still Using Star Furies?

    Star Fury pilots I know fly the ships in the standing position. Can you really take more G forces from that position? I've always heard in aircraft that the best position was semi-reclined such as in the F-16. Or in a micro gravity environment, is standing the same as being reclined?

    Notice How The Minbari Ship on DVD Looks Romulan?

    I've been a major Star Trek fan for decades. In particular I've searched for ship designs in other science fiction that resembles Romulan ships. Notice in the new DVD how much the (Valen class cruiser is it?) looks like something the Romulans on Star Trek might use? Very birdlike. Even the...

    Why Is Earthforce Still Using Star Furies?

    Galen seems to indicate strongly that what Sheridan is seeing is a recording of the future in the New York scene.

    The Gathering - Vorlon Question

    By the way. I gotta say that while I loved the B-5 design. B-4 was even better. And it could move on its own.

    Why Is Earthforce Still Using Star Furies?

    The future vision of New Yorks destruction by the Centauri from what I gathered was supposed to be an exact future of "what will be" if the Prince wasn't stopped. Why wouldn't the vision of the battle that Sheridan saw be a precise vision of that future as well? and I expect a veteran...

    Why Is Earthforce Still Using Star Furies?

    Another question. While I can accept them using Star Furies some 25 years after the Earth Minbari War............why is Earth still using Star Furies some FIFTY FIVE years later when the Centauri attack? Sheridan has a vision of the coming war with the Centauri and you can see clearly more...

    Why Is Earthforce Still Using Star Furies?

    Probably best answer yet.

    The Gathering - Vorlon Question

    Agreed. It is hinted at in the show and even more in the fully approved novels that the "Kosh" stationed initially on B5 was "special". That he had feelings for humans not present in other Vorlons.

    Why Is Earthforce Still Using Star Furies?

    The point I made was that one reason for the continued usage by the U.S. of those older planes is that we haven't faced any opponent with an equal or superior air force during that time. Earth on the other hand had. Repeatedly. I would think that fighting superior opponents would encourage...

    Why Is Earthforce Still Using Star Furies?

    One might argue that Earthforce didn't upgrade their equipment much after the Earth Minbari War because lots of people on Earth actually think Earth WON that war. IIRC, in "Eyes" the guy from Earthforce actually claimed that the Minbari were so stunned by Earths show of strength at the Battle...
