I know this is probably unrealistic, but write novels using the TE setting. Aroooo

There is a Shadowrun pbem game over at herocentral. That may have info/links. Aroooo

Unless Combat Luck is fairly common in your game, wouldn't it be innapropriate for an AVLD? Or am I just too tired and thinking more of NND's? Aroooo

Prfofessional Skills For 'missing' skills like diplomacy, just make a Professional Skill: Diplomat and base it on PRE rather than INT. Obviously that would be a little difficult with 'Intimidation,' but most missing skills can be covered by the appropriate PS. Aroooo

Typically I don't worry about it. I'm either playing in a skills heavy game (heroic level) or a Supers level game where lots of skills are less important. I have one GM who makes up character 'packages' where each package (i.e. profession, archtype, etc.) gets a set of skills, and maybe an ability or two, for a fixed cost. That fixed cost is less than the individual skills/abilities added together. So, a policeman might have a Police Man package that costs 30 points, but individually it would be 40 points. Aroooo

Packages I do have a Ranger package, as well as martial arts packages (one of them covers Pike fighting). I will be working on more professional packages though. Aroooo

Crusade No, I have not. I'm not sure if they are even available on the net or not. I'll have to go digging. Thanks for the tip! Aroooo

Techno-Mages. I may write one up as an NPC one day. As for other post-season 5, I've got plans to write up the ships from Crusade and the Legend of the Rangers movie, but thats about all really. Unless, of course, you have something specifc in mind. I've always thought the Ranger's ship would make a good player ship for a Ranger campaign. Aroooo

Some of the TransHuman stuff from GURPS is a good reference for near future SF. Aroooo

Re: Great Work Aroooo , Lurkers Anonymous Thanks! Always nice to hear from fans Feel free to give me feedback any time. Also, if there's anything you (or anyone) would like me to work on first, just let me know and I'll see what I can do. Aroooo

Small Update I've posted a small update: updated the Psi Rules (removed Limited Range modifier from Accidental Surface Scan-not needed since I made it part of the Mental group-I originally had it as an Unusual Sense). HDv2 Prefab and Sample Character also updated. Enjoy! Aroooo

Totally OT But they do a great job running the transports that ferry visitors to and from the Arizona Memorial at Pearl Harbor! Aroooo

Thats a debatable question. The 'pulp' genre is generally considered 1920's-40's adventure. The classic serials of Tarzan, John Carter, The Shadow, etc. Dark Champions (as I recall) is more modern day heroic level genre. James Bond, Batman, Daredevil and such. If you take that as a generalized starting point, I think Dark Champs has more mass appeal than pulp. But thats just my opinion Aroooo

I've usually included that sort of 'ability' in the design of the ship's computer, rather than the ship itself. But I can see how it would be beneficial for smaller craft like fighters or mecha. Aroooo

Spirit successfully lands on Mars!! Congrats NASA! Aroooo

Sample Characters I've finished updating the rest of the characters in the Samples section. If you're using any of them, you should check the updates. HeroDesigner 2 found some of my errors, so some characters had a few more points to play with. Aroooo http://www.aroooo.com/rpg_stuff/b5/index.php

Update A minor site update: Updated Michael Nixon, the commercial telepath. Updated G'Kord, the Narn arms dealer. Included the HDv2 character files as well. Added a Martial Arts Prefab HDv2 file to the downloads section. Point cost errors in the Martial Arts section corrected. Happy New Year everyone! Aroooo

Thanks! Mongoose's material is good, but not well organized. Especially when you get into the season guides. Other than its d20 (not trying to start an argument anyone ), I highly recommend any B5 fan pick it up as source/reference material. Aroooo

I saw the preview when I saw Return of the King last weekend. Showed it to my wife last night (she's a Pulp fan too) and it looks great. I just hope it does well. Pulp period pieces tend to not do well because most folks don't understand the genre, and most movie critics want to know why the subject matter was not updated for modern times. Sorry... enough rambling from me. Aroooo

Done wrapping! Merry Christmas! I've finished wrapping, finished typing, and I'm going to bed 'cause my kids will wake me up in about 3 hours! But I wanted to get this out: Big update for B5! I've added the Translator to the Equipment section. Big update to the Psi rules (still need to update the sample character). Updated the Talents and Perks section with the new Psi Perks. Added the Telepathy Prefab for HDv2 to the downloads section. Enjoy! (Let me know what you tihnk about the new Psi rules.) Aroooo

This is a lot like how I've build hyperspace for B5. The main difference is that a ship with a hyperspace engine can allow other ships into hyperspace. And the other B5 comments are accurate - as long as you can maintain a lock on an existing hyperspace gate, you can travel aroud hyperspace all you want. Just don't lose the lock or you will be lost. Aroooo

New Additions Happy Holidays! A minor update and some additions: Updated the Drazi Package Deal (reduced the HTH combat skill one level--I had the wrong point value assigned). Changed the PDF link to a general Downloads section. Added HeroDesigner v2 (2.0.6) Racial Package Deal files and an Everyman Skills prefab to that section. Should have an update to the Psi rules by end of week. Enjoy! Aroooo

Side Effects If you do side effects on the engines, then do a DEX drain, S/F eadaches, nausea, and disrupted equilibrium. Aroooo

I have to agree with some of NuSoardGraphite's comments about 'core' changes. My biggest prob. is with the change to Starbuck. That said, I thought it was great. The cinematography of the the space combat sequences was breathtakingly original. I also liked the little techno twist: old hardware is better (in this case). I think Lorne Green would be pleased with Olmos' performance as Adama. Aroooo

Small Addition I've added the EF Flight Suit to the equipment section (although I didn't call it EF there). Consider it a generic military grade flight suit suitable for any race that uses them. FYI the Narns don't wear flight suits in their fighters. Aroooo
