For me, definitely a Whitestar, what a
ship.
My hubby has whispered in my ear - a Shadow Ship, well that's a big surprise, dear

I would prefer a ship that is easy to operate, fast, versatile, powerful... has a built-in Vorlon sound system, can sing and play cards with the crew.
A Vorlon personal transport or an advanced version of a Blue Star...

What the flaming Bhooji is a Blue Star???? Is it the micro version of a whitestar as seen in Sleeping in Light. Well you can have all those ships, I'd like the Ranger ship from deconstruction of falling stars, and I'll have a transformed body and encounter suit to boot! Either that or I'd design a T'bolt/Nial ranger fighter hybrid with vorlon tech added!

For me it's gotta be the Excalibur, i don't know why but i love the design. Plus the main guns, well, it would just be so cool, even if you do need multiple people to run it. Close second would be the Vree saucer, purely for those green lasers. Thats prety dman cool how it shreds a shadow fighter

I would have to say it would be the Thunderbolt. I would have said the Starfury but, it only seats one. Being a pilot myself, flying solo gets very lonely. You start doing things like talking to yourself and other somewhat scary things to keep from being completely bored. I would need someone to talk to, so the Thunderbolt it is.

Good, Bad...I'm the one with the gun.

I think I'd probably choose a starfury to fly. But then again, flying a Vorlon vessel would have to be one of the coolest things. It's just so mysterious and secretive and not very many people know much about them.

Good Question!
Of coarse I'd go with a Shadow vessel, I wouldn't mind th implants. I'd jusy use some dry skin lotion, man. The scream in my enemies minds would be worth it.
Second would be the EA Omega class Destroyer. It just looks cool.

I don’t know if this little topic has been discussed before but just for the fun of it, so if you had the opportunity, what ship would you chose out of all the ships you’ve seen in the B5 universe?
I would personally like to fly a shadow ship (duh!) but of course I would still be in control of my self, and no implants, I have sensitive skin
. But I think they are just awesome looking ships and would love to fly a level 3 battlecrab. Not to mention crating a little bit of chaos along the way.
Your turn...

I would want the Excalibur as well. I would want that waiting process after the main guns are fired, under a bit more control. But the ship is magnificent.
And so very phallic.
LOLOLOLOL
Ok, maybe I should say that but it is. Dang it really is. Watching it right now.
Hey on Babylon 5 tonight I saw an actress that I believe became Dureena. The voice is the same hard to mistake that one. This was the episode with Duncan and the symbiots.
Hmmmmmmm is this the only true mixing of races ever shown on B5? Excluding of course, Delenn and the eventually turn of Sinclair into Minbari (or should I type Mimbari just to bug Gonzo???).
Also, the other day they played the one where Susan goes to Epsilon3 and gets the vision of the president being killed and Clark. Was that voice Morden's????? Just curious.

Capitol ship, I'd say the Vorlon Dreadnaught. It,s big, its packs a ton of firepower and its can take a ton of damage.
Fighter, definitely the thunderbolt.

Hey Gideonsmine
1)Yes It was Carrrie Dorbo in "Exogenisis" who would be Dureena Nafeel.
2)Yes that was Morden's voice you heard.
And all that it implies.
3)<phalic?> Man thats worse than the thread over at the SciFi B5 Bboard about how the station looks like a sex toy.

Hi all...I'm new to this part of the Intergalactic Highway.
I'm fond of the ship Lennier flew...the one where he was lying down in the cockpit. The White Star would be next...it has a nice, feminine shape to it.

I would chose for the Minbari Hel'Zha class heavy fighter.
I've seen a picture once on a site called 'Voltaire's Encyclopedia Xenobiologica' (no longer exists
). It looks a bit like the Blue Star Sheridan was in in SIL.
At VEX they said I was the first ship to combine Minbari and Vorlon tech.
I remember Sinclair flying one in the book 'To dream in the city of sorrows'.
