Ok, I know Jon is working on photos of everything, but in the meantime, has
anybody any online photos of:
- the jumpgate
- anything in the starbase range
- the starbase defense installation(formerly ft304)
- the outrim coalition defense outpost

I know that in more Thrust there is a photo of a station that is built from a
Cylon Basestar and some stuff from the former CMD line. Is the top part of
that station by any chance one of the above stations?

I have a picture of a Jumpgate on my GenCon 2K Friday page about halfway down:

This is Allan Goodall's mini used by Mark Siefert in his B5 game.

I had originally thought that it was from the Microtac resin 1/300
buildings, but looking at MT again, I see the structure is round, while the
Microtac I had in mind are octagonal, and the caption in MT specifies CMD
starship range. *shrug*

On Paul Owen's long labour:

you'll find an underscored 'here' that leads to older images. I've been
searching through these, and can only find the not-B5:

which I think is still in production, but I can't tell if it's one of the
Starbase Range, or perhaps the Outrim base.

Well, I guess that wasn't much help; apologies, I seem to be coming down with
a bug, and worthless for the main.

I can't help with photos (yet), but I think that the circular bit at the top
is the top piece of the 'starbase defense installation'.

Hey is that scratch built or kit? Either way can we get a writeup of how it
was made? I'd to make one for my games but haven't hit on the right way yet.

Thanks, it looks nice. It only took some time before I got to see it as
my LC475 at home only has netscape 2.0 which crashed on this page:-)

So which base is the not-B5 base?  Anyone got a part number?  I
really _need_ a base, and if I am going to order a base I might
as well order a couple platoons of 15mm SG minis and....:)
