Yes. Reverse-engineered Centauri ones in specific. They don't, unless you can demonstrate a source that says so? Preferably on-screen from the series?

Narn energy mine launchers would be very usefull to swat massed fighter strikes, though it makes little sense for EA to have them. Much better for Omegas to interdict jump points and swat / seize any jumpship that appears. If EA is willing to reveal B5 jump engine tech, have the squadron jump in...

To coup her father she'd need: - some solid backing in the power structures (military / internal security) - an "actable" reason that would convince the above to back the coup. Right now "abducting some peripherial nobodies who are supposed to have warships" is not enough. It's too abstract a...

Come to think of it, Omega-class as built for "local circumstances" should have a much heavier point defense system. Maybe twin emplacements instead of single ones in OTL, quite possibly using something similar to the Nova's "mounting racks" that held the big guns. And / or add a pair of...

I wonder if that part about securing the ship was true or just posturing? Ship crew should be under orders to disallow any docking, and respond (shoot or flee) to any forced docking attempt. And didn't EF1 carry at least some fighters? If EA is willing to write the diplomats off (tough choice)...

Jumpgates will need to be surrounded by automated weapon platforms, lest the Phone Company might try to nuke them. Or the Dracs, following the modus operandi of "if we can't have it, none shall...".

Yes. They are seen in use only once IIRC, in the Narn / Shadows battle over Centauri world. We are told that Narns sold weapons to EA, but never any deails on-screen. General fandom assumption was that it was heavy lasers, as it fits with G'Kar's quote how the Narns reverse-engineered Centauri...

Actually, EA could "solve" pirate point attacks fairly easily, just plase some of those unmanned orbital weapon platforms around pirate points, to blast uninvited guests if needed. Energy mine launchers are fannon I think, we never see the big oval thingies on Omegas being used, and when the...

Is that some Garibaldi / Ginelli ship I'm seeing? ;) Otherwise nice WH40k and Macross references.

EA needs to unleash the ultimate WMD against the Dracs - anime and manga (with a side of cringy)... Starting with "Dragon Half" (check the main plot line...) The Dracs will spend all their energy and efforts on either suppressing it or trying to be kawaii. :D Oh, and Slayers too, when you...

Ugh, only that bullpup looks even remotely useful, though at least it's fun to see revolver grips (K-frame going by size?) on the PPGs. Princess Leia had at least a proper match gun of Soviet make... ;)

Strange nobody from the IS remarked on ambassadorial ride not being your usual fare... ;) Otherwise solid chapter, can't wait to see more.

IIRC Count's stance on hyperspace, it's basically climbing a mountain in fog, an ever-shifting 3D maze with very little co-relation to normal space, with it's own inclines, tides and currents. You can see this on various B5 maps, where you often can't go directly from one system to another even...

They could be made to double as nav beacons, which would be a brilliant ploy - make the IS plant EA's nav beacons at it's own cost. To paraphrase Donald Trump, "we will have a wall beacon network and Mexico the Inner Sphere will pay for it." :LOL: Of course, it does not work like that...

I would not be surprised in the least if that was the case. That being said, Comstar-free / non-HPG FTL comms technology is pretty much literally priceless. EA could ask just about any price and Davions would have to pay it, if only to avoid a situation when others have it and they don't.

Combine could reach EA by going "south" through neutral space outside of Davion borders. Capellans could too by going "east", but they would need to pass all of Davion space either "above" or "under" it. Same for Mariks and Steiners. Kuritas have the least amount of space to cross.

Nice update. Though... if the telepath is not scanning people discretely, he's being under-utilised. And that with a golden opportunity for an intelligence scoop of the century if not millenia, one that EA vitally needs. Scanning that Comstar guy would have opened the proverbial Pandora's Box...

Actually no, it's "south-west" of EA space which is somewhere around Tortuga with EA Sol system mistaken for Cooperland. They are both on the same side of Davion space, galactic "south-east". Federated Suns are in yellow-ish, Bulls are red, Liaos are green. Map is for 3025, but "close enough"...

Minor nitpick, "Your Majesty" is how one addresses a king, "your highness" is more suitable a prince. ;) Other then that I'd have expected the Davions to keep the whole thing a secret to "hoard" the new kids on the block for themselves... I wonder about reactions over a new type of jump ship and...

Very nice chapter. @Spartan303 as you are in contact with LC clearly, might I / you suggest a beta-reader knowledgeable about BTech? Inner Sphere K-F jump engine is not a plug-in module like suggested, it's basically 95% mass of jumpship with the remaining 5% making the ship hull and every other...
