Re: Battle of the Line Change
The Golan III has quite a few Proton torpedo launchers. The Mimbari however have no reason to avoid it until they know its combat power, and there only going to find that out by having it shoot at them.ben wrote:one Golan 3 in geosync? the mimbari go to the other side and ass rapes earth that is assuming the Golan 3 is not equiped with fighters or missiles, torps, etc... but i don't know by giving the EA one less hemishpere to concentrate on and the better sensor tech it just might be able to give them a chance (however small)
More likely there fleet will attack, suffer heavy losses in seconds with the remaining ships escaping to the far side before leaving the system.

Indeed, they are most likely to attack the large battle station immediately, since it would be an obvious target. If the station's commander knows their weapons aren't powerful enough to breach his shields and deliberately allows them to get close en masse before unleashing massed turbolaser fire, they would suffer truly horrible losses, not to mention the demoralizing effect of seeing their weapons deflected by its shields and the even more demoralizing effect of seeing ships caught by invisible tractor beams as they turn to flee, and subsequently blown to scrap.Sea Skimmer wrote:The Golan III has quite a few Proton torpedo launchers.

Re: Battle of the Line Change
By then they'll be committed to the attack. The Golan will either decimate the fleet to the point EA can take them, or decimate them entirely itself before they can pull away.ben wrote:oh i don't know when the Golan 3 starts blowing Sharlins left and rightConnor MacLeod wrote:And just how the fuck are the Minbari going to know how to avoid it?ben wrote:one Golan 3 in geosync? the mimbari go to the other side and ass rapes earth that is assuming the Golan 3 is not equiped with fighters or missiles, torps, etc... but i don't know by giving the EA one less hemishpere to concentrate on and the better sensor tech it just might be able to give them a chance (however small)

The Minbari are screwed. If they find out that the EA has a station like that they would probably think that the EA has a few ships with that kind of firepower.
The Minbari are a very advanced race(by B5 Standards) that nearly destroyed the Earth Alliance after a Earth Ship fired on the cruiser carring their leader and killed him.HemlockGrey wrote:Who are the Minbari?
