It's been a while since I last visited here due to real live kicking in. I was quite shocked when I saw in the files section the number of downloads of the B5 conversion since I myself didn't had much time running them personally.
So, as many have downloaded, how does it play? Don't hold anything back. I'm presently planning on improving on your criticism. 
We will be playing this coming Wednesday with home ships incorporating Klingon rules, we can post the results once we play 
That would be great.
So other comments? 8-)
So, how did the game went? :geek:
We played a 5000 point game, dividing up with myself, my friend Pablo, and my Grandpa vs Gaming Glen and BeowulfJB (my uncle). Once we were within range, they immediately noticed the sheer level of damage the Hunters did to their ships, and did their best to eliminate them. Unfortunately, due to a lack of communication between myself and my Grandfather, Pablo and I entered weapons range while Grandpa's part of the fleet lagged behind, leaving us at a severe disadvantage.
The following turns were extremely brutal for my fleet, with most of my and Pablo's ships being eliminated or effectively neutered by a combination of Strikers and heavy firepower, with bad rolls making return fire virtually useless until my seekers entered range and tore into one of my Uncle's Battleships.
To be honest, I'm not sure who won since we ended up ending the game before it was over, but I would give the nod to my Uncle and Gaming Glen, since Glen only lost 2 ships and my Uncle didn't lose any (although both his Battleships were badly damaged). During this game, I discovered the Uselessness of Faceted Shielding over Screens or even regular Shields, and have eliminated them from my ships. It was a fun game .
The battle that my nephew & I played with the others was excellent. There were 5,000 points on a side. My nephew's Hunter class ships were excellent, and each of them had a single heavy weapon with other secondary weapons. These ships became priority targets. I had eight flights of "SeaSlug Strikers" launched from DDGs in my fleet. These strikers are 1/3+/1/3 with Piercing +1. Each flight of these Seaslugs had 8 strikers. All eight flights ravaged one of the powerful Hunter class ships and strippeded it of its weapons. The other one was fired on by all of the ships of Gaming Glenn and I, and also pulverized.
It was a slug-fest very much like some of the naval battles in 1942 in Ironbottom Sound near Guadalcanal..
I had two of my 600 point Tennessee class DNs that are listed in the B-Basin. They can (& did) deliver and can take a pounding... :geek:
Every ship down to the Frigates have been equip with variations of the Ferro Crystal for our next game.
Should be loads of fun
Again, a message from the Uncle Steve Admiralty: "...Eeeekkk!!!..." <LOL>
