Well, as someone who really likes having the EA in their games, I felt the following change was in order. http://www.shrapnelgames.com/ubb/images/icons/icon12.gif

I always preferred the EA from BEFORE the 4th season overthrow of the Govt and the Interstellar Alliance. I guess I sort of root for the bad guys!

Anyways, I highly recommend replacing Sheridan with a picture of Clark (from his card in the B5CCG). For flavor, I also deleted the White Star from the Fleet Icon and made it more of a task force of Omega's. The White Star is still the CL's picture, but at least I dont have to look at it every time I make a fleet. http://www.shrapnelgames.com/ubb/images/icons/icon7.gif

So, I highly recommend giving President Clark a try. http://www.shrapnelgames.com/ubb/images/icons/icon12.gif Maybe someone can eventually do some appropriate AI Speech files for each variation...hehe..here's hoping!

Cool, Talenn.
I once asked Rambie to do nearly the same but he politely declined in fear for his live. He was nearly crucified by B5 fans as he tried it. http://www.shrapnelgames.com/ubb/images/icons/icon7.gif
For the speech files, I'm currently working on a speech file for the EA and I hope it is up and running at Monday but it's awful lot of work. And the Torons, now with a ship set, are eager to join the race for galactic domination, too. http://www.shrapnelgames.com/ubb/images/icons/icon12.gif

I wonder what it would be like to create a Psi Corps race with speech files based on the superiority complex Bester displayed in the show.

e.g. We don't want anyone to know about the weapons potential of Psi-Corps because then they would begin putting one of us on every ship. But whereas there is no great loss if a million normals are killed in battle, the loss of even one Psi-Corps member is a tragic loss...

Perhaps replace them with Warlock-class destroyers? Or an Olympus-class corvette?

The Warlock is already used as the dreadnought in the EA shipset. The Olympus-class corvette is the frigate as well.

(I don't know -why- that passenger liner is being used as the Heavy Carrier, though...)
