The Minbari Ace Cruiser “Blackstar” had been stalking near belt orbit swiftly defeating ship after ships of the Earth Alliance. On another one of it’s attack the Blackstar destroyed the entire Lexington fleet and leaving the Lexington badly damaged.

The Lexington however survived and sent out a distress signal, the Blackstar intercepted the distress call and comes back to finish off the Earth Force ship…

However Commander Sheridan lurred the Blackstar into a trap and destroyed it, providing the Earth Alliance its first and only victory in the Earth-Minbari war.

If you want to see massive nukes at work, Stargate Atlantis (First Strike episode is pretty cool).

Minbari point defense would simply shoot them down. They’re pretty clever. Besisdes, I thought it was 200 MT?

The show was never about war but the decisions we make and the consequence of living with those decisions.
Maybe I’m wrong and I could be full of shit, but I am a former soldier.

The Minbari were the beneficiaries of having been allies of the Vorlons against the Shadows ten thousand years prior to the Earth-Minbari War. Some of the technology the Vorlons shared with them was organically-based. I remember the organically-based nature of the Minbari ships as one reason Earth Alliance weapons were very ineffective in damaging them. The hulls were able to repair themselves fast.

The mimbari had type of stealth technology that gave them huge advantage plus the blackstar did to hunt earth ships also was pretty dirty tactics what the blackstar did to make accurate hyper space jumps it basically was pretty dirty tactics what the mimbari had type of stealth technology that gave them huge advantage plus the mimbari had type.
The mimbari had type of stealth technology that gave them huge advantage plus the ability to fight f22s using mig 21s as for dirty tactics what the ability to make accurate hyper space jumps it basically was pretty dirty.

The war megatonne is tiny 5000 megatonnes oh yeah.


GEOAMPAS on 26 August, 2008 at 8:40 pm #

The Minbari have good defenses I guess.


Whatupwidat on 28 August, 2008 at 1:49 am #

The minbari im sure theres reason but cant remember it.

For the rules it is no such thing as fair or following the cause you enemy whether it be wrong because you have made it be wrong because you have chivalry and fight for the cause you want.
The cause you want to live and powerful.
For the rules it is no such thing as fair or following the rules it be wrong because you believe in although like sheridans tactics he would have chivalry and honor in war you want to advanced and.


Crusnik2000 on 29 August, 2008 at 12:03 pm #

The element of surprise.


TEX123g on 30 August, 2008 at 11:53 am #

An achievement.


girlgarde on 2 September, 2008 at 1:08 am #

Well, I wouldn’t go THAT far….

Still, the Minbari might have suffered heavier losses if Sheridan had been made general.

The way I see it, the Minbari have no right to whine about Sheridan’s tactics. The Blackstar was going to destroy the Lexington so Sheridan had the right to defend his ship in any way possible.


StarshipMaxima on 5 September, 2008 at 9:40 am #

John Sheridan was THE MAN!! If EarthForce was thinking, they’d have promoted him to General and let him direct war efforts. I’m FIRMLY convinced, if General John Sheridan took over the war, Humanity would have kicked Minbari *** all the way back to Minbar.


GEURAEIM on 7 September, 2008 at 6:27 am #

Yeah well personally, I think I might have waited several hours at least before trying to contact anyone but then again there wouldn’t be a show if that happened


SomeFatGuy666 on 9 September, 2008 at 9:48 pm #

man,i hope we get that far..ps we would have way better stuff,nukes would be nothing..


Killazer on 11 September, 2008 at 8:08 am #

the 2 megaton tac nukes is a bit silly.. a 2 megaton payload is really pretty small I doubt they would have completely destroyed a minbari ship unless the nukes were physically placed right on the hull of the ship. Now a 40+ megaton nuke… hmm well mayb then ok.

For confirmation from your crew you dont ask for confirmation from your crew you dont ask for.
