Monsoon Gunboat

Originally produced by BamBam Productions, the 1:3700 Monsoon Gunboat became a joint BamBam/Fantastic Plastic venture in December 2008. Grown using stereolithography, this was the second "Babylon 5" subject marketed by Fantastic Plastic.

Earthforce Monsoon Class Gunboat:

In the year of 2266 Earthforce general Meade opened a competition for the design of a Gunboat class ship, officially to replace the aging Olympus class corvettes. Unofficially the competition was held because Earthforce had been very impressed by the performance of the Whitestar class ships of the Interstellar Alliance. While all senior officials realized that even with gravitic technology now at their disposal the new ship would never equal the Whitestar design, they were also aware that a dedicated gunboat would be a very potent weapon when used in large numbers.

A Call To Arms

Five years after the end of the Shadow War, the Drahk have
finally activated the last of the Death Clouds constructed by
their former masters. With the Shadows and Vorlons both
passed beyond the rim, their home-world destroyed, the
Drahk do what they have been taught to do for millennia,
they start war. Their target, the home-world of the man who
defeated their masters, and ended their purpose in the galaxy,
Earth.
************************************************************************
The Earth Alliance does not generally mobilize a battle fleet in
the middle of the night, based solely on the desperate call of
a crackpot. But John Sheridan is no ordinary crackpot.
Starkiller, Destroyer of Z'ha'dum, Traitor, President of the
Interstellar Alliance, he has already changed the course of the
human history four times. So when he tells Earth Force to deploy
every available ship in defense of Earth, the Joint Chiefs listen,
because if he is right, humanity could be preparing for the
second Battle of the Line.

Unofficial Earth Force Sourcebook Supplement

Aaron Newman compiled all of the information from this site, and a lot of other stuff into a single PDF document, suitable for double-sided printing. Thats right, the Unofficial Earthforce Sourcebook Supplement is now available! Over 100 pages (4.3 Mb) of new rules, house rules, tactics, ship systems, point cost system and other ideas for your game. And of course Ship Control Sheets for 40 new capital ships and 15 small craft. Hopefully this is just the first, I'm already thinking about a League of Non-aligned Worlds supplement for the RPG side of the game. As a note, though they will still be available on this site, the sections below will probably not be updated, instead I will release new versions of the sourcebook, or updates to it as needed.

*Note you have to download by the individual links:

Babylon 5 Technical Manual

The Babylon 5 Technical Manual is an on-line guide to the ships and technology of the hit television series "Babylon 5" and it's expanded universe. The content of this website is not a fan-fiction, but rather it is a series of essays containing the observation, theories, and research of the site's owner, Brandon Bray.

Active since 1994, the Babylon 5 Technical Manual is the largest and most comprehensive guide to the science behind the fiction, and attempts to apply real science and physics to the fictional universe of Babylon 5, as to provide the most accurate and plausible explanation to what was seen during the seven year run of the Babylon series.

Wolf's Shipyard

Here, we primarily have some drawings of various ships from Babylon 5. Many are my own designs, some are from the show. All are roughly to scale, except for a few that I don't have size data for. For those, I guessed. SCS's for B5 Wars are available for some of them. They are available on my SCS page.

Acknowledgements: I need to make this quite clear, these drawings are not 100% original. While the actual drawings posted here are mine, many were heavily based on drawings and pictures that I have found over the past two years in my travels around the net. The work of Lars Joreteg in particular influenced my drawings tremendously. His Earth Alliance starship comparison picture was the basis for my Hyperion, and also provided scale comparisons to the other ships. The SCS forms of Richard Bax on his site contain 3-view drawings of the ships they represent. These provided the basis for most of the drawings of AoG "non-cannon" ships like the Oracle and Sagitarius. Other drawings are based on drawings of ships designed by LPK Design in "Ships of the Fleet", the compendium of B5W ship designs, which also uses Richard's drawings for many EA ships. The Starship Modeler website's B5 technical reference section provided a great deal of help with the Omega, Starfury, and Thunderbolt.
