Noice! You even got the ‘can’t hit the side of a bus’ shooting mechanics B5 was riddled with. I guess EA gunnery crews are always drunk on the Romulan ale Han Solo smuggled in from New Caprica on the TARDIS 😎
Trouble is if everything worked as the tech would suggest, every sci fi space battle scene would just be over in seconds with a big flash bang, very likely from BVR so we' wouldn't even need to render the attacking ship. All heroes dead, first scene. No need for a story or anything. It's called drama.
Man Meurigs Omega has been beaten to within an inch of its life so many times lol that really is one of the best Omega models I've ever seen. You've got the B5 pacing down cold man this feels like it could have been pulled straight from the show.
Meurig told me before on F3D he had no problem with me blowin' it to bits , and yeah it's the best one I've ever used. Wonder if the other guy ever finished his (Tony Gardner I think).
The EAS Churchill was destroyed April 8th 2260 in the battle of Babylon 5. The Captain of the Churchill Sandra Hiroshi died in the line of duty on April 8th 2260. One can easily find the calendar for 2260 on the internet and then one knows that April 8th, 2260 will be a Sunday. RIP Sandra Hiroshi!
I always think about Sheridan saying, "Get to the life pods" as the EA ships are about to blow up. Nice action. But the Commander of the Churchill should have launched starfuries to attack and cover. He must have been a junior officer or he knew how hard it would be to render more stuff in that awesome shot!
No one in the comments remembers that Tech superiority is why Earth lost all battles against the Mimbari and that's most likely why this EA ship couldn't hit the Buxom Brigade's ship. They have better tech.
@@SpacialKatana Why not :P Amazing animation, love it. Now the question is, what if she used it 72 missiles that she had on board. These were probably never used do to budget constraints on the early render farms (Amiga 2000 with Video Toaster or the later SGI machines).
This is very good on the speed and drama when younger races uses their non-organic ship to attack one another. At least it was not a Shadow or Vorlon ship against the other races, which would have no surprises.
If Earth had access to the newest technology already before the Minbari war started and had a pre-Omega variant destroyers that was called Nova-X Class Destroyer as it's main ship in the fleet together with a upgraded Hyperion cruisers and additional 50 prototype Warlock Destroyers without Minbari and Shadow tech yet, could the war have been less one sided?
Their targeting systems are much, much better than that. I know it's tongue in cheek, but that really irritated me. That Omega should have demolished that enemy ship easily.
One of my favorite B5 ship classes. Of the younger races excluding the Minbari & later EA Warlocks...the Omegas are probably one of the biggest bruisers. There is no real safe arc to attack one from with the pulse//beam turrets spread about...the bow is deadly & especially even the stern armaments are bad news. One of the sturdier ships though the rotation section does form a weak point.
You'd think that weak point would be meaningless after the inclusion of artificial gravity tech, though. Why would they keep the rotating sections around? An Omega-class, free of that one flaw, would be an absolute death machine!
@@Kainlarsen Which is exactly where the Warlock comes in. No younger race ship (even Minbari cruisers) can sustain even 1 full power hit from BOTH beam cannons of THAT thing...
@@SpacialKatana Pretty sure I saw that one...need to look it up again. One ship I'd like to see in ALL it's potential fury would be the Nova. Usually it's just doing pock shots rather than broadside salvoes...
@@SpacialKatana Oh, Thanks! I love the BB5 universe designs far more myself, and as much as I love Star Trek designs too, more the contemporary over the classics. I was partially right in my thought then, though I wanted to ask you about the Omega Destroyers vs SW ships. I figured the Omegas were deadlier, and probably more dense in their armor too. An entire fleet of Star Destroyers would have problems against just even a single Galaxy Class Starship in my opinion with the Galaxy's more precise fire and distance they can fire from.
It looks like the omega class has turrets on the rotating section in the show but you can't really get a good look at it can anyone confirm I'm just curious
I'm starting to get the impression that these new guys are playing their game. Although they can also be a substitute for Drakhs, as servants of Shadows. I also understood why they were not immediately attacked by ISA: they did not immediately imagine aggression, and then struck when they collected all the information about the enemy. Just like in "The Legend of the Rangers".
This is awesome work you should help with the new series they supposed to be working on,always loved the omega destroyer I'd love to see more,how about the shadow omega destroyer,one that got away bein destroyed and is hiding out there in space.
So many texture layers on this model, I've never had enough time to go through them replacing with Shadow skin. Adding tentacles is the easy bit. Maybe one day.
Haha, I love it too and Meurig did an awesome job modeling it. i did a video of a fleet of them with Whitestars a while back and I know you'd like that :)
No offense but the Omega class battlecruiser fought very poorly they missed all their shots!.. if Captain John Sheridan was in command he'll make sure they're on target that Captain needs to go back to earth Alliance academy
Noice! You even got the ‘can’t hit the side of a bus’ shooting mechanics B5 was riddled with. I guess EA gunnery crews are always drunk on the Romulan ale Han Solo smuggled in from New Caprica on the TARDIS 😎
More likely that the Buxom Brigade's ships have better EW (Electronic Warfare) tech than EarthForce does.
Too much participation in the minibar war
Only A Earth ship can miss from 10 ft away.
Narns and centauri too, their cruisers were missing their shots while being literally 1 or 2 kilometers apart
Trouble is if everything worked as the tech would suggest, every sci fi space battle scene would just be over in seconds with a big flash bang, very likely from BVR so we' wouldn't even need to render the attacking ship.

Manned by Imperial Stormtroopers.
I totally agree at least this particular crew, of this Omega class battle cruiser 👍
Another masterpiece. Your genius seems to know no end. BRAVO!
No sensor lock, because you never hit him. Then his rear guns took you out. Not good, that.

Another great short, but the Omega destroyer should have launched fighters,

I was expecting this comment, I'm well aware of when it was toasted. Gratz on taking the bait :D

Ah man, looks like Clark is back at it again. That silly fella doesn’t know when to quit!
🤣
Really upping your game here, well done it was beautiful. Hope we get a warlock class to get a bit of revenge
No one in the comments remembers that Tech superiority is why Earth lost all battles against the Mimbari and that's most likely why this EA ship couldn't hit the Buxom Brigade's ship. They have better tech.
Buxom Brigrade 😂😂
Nah, at that range you could manually hit it using optics
Superior tech didn't save the black star
What bugs me more is that EA ships usually have interceptors for defence.
It's funny they weren't that bad at gunnery on the Prometheus when they encountered the Valen'Tha.
Didn’t get hit even once? Who was targeting those guns?
Awesome work , fits perfectly with the b5 music, ( images)
Thanks a lot!
The typical Omega Class Destroyer firing pattern is "We will we will rock you!""
Man that was bloody gorgeous ! Still the love the omega class one of my all time favourite sci fi ships ! Brilliant , thankyou
Dude , it got pwned. You should be throwing abuse at me like everyone else
@@SpacialKatana yeah It did severely ! Doesn’t stop it being one of my favourites . And it looked glorious ….. before it got slaughtered lol
@@chrisdewfall7920 Look up my Omega + Whitestars fleet video. Might need tissues to hand if it's your favourite 🙂
@@SpacialKatana thought I had seen all of yours but will go have a look !
That alien ship looks awesome. Great design like something out of SBY.
Were Stormtroopers crewing the Churchill LOL!
Why didn't it land even a single shot? Or launch any of it's missiles or the 1-Gigaton mines on the bow?
Why?
@@SpacialKatana
Why not :P
Amazing animation, love it.
Now the question is, what if she used it 72 missiles that she had on board.
These were probably never used do to budget constraints on the early render farms (Amiga 2000 with Video Toaster or the later SGI machines).
@@NLTheGreater Been there, done it, rendered it. Made a tutorial about it.
Those Omaga class ships would have, if needed destroyed any Narn, or even Centauri ships I think.
This is very good on the speed and drama when younger races uses their non-organic ship to attack one another. At least it was not a Shadow or Vorlon ship against the other races, which would have no surprises.
Erm... what happened to the interceptors???
When u fire low the command is "raise one form" Fire......

Love that the Omega gives the planet a double laser blast... eh whatever.
Ah yes the classic forget to implement targeting Systems and armor strategy 😂
the Omega wouldve never missed

I made a cool vid of the Warlock cleaving another ship in half, if you search hard enough ;-)
@@SpacialKatana Pretty sure I saw that one...need to look it up again.
One ship I'd like to see in ALL it's potential fury would be the Nova. Usually it's just doing pock shots rather than broadside salvoes...
Dont know why you titled it as offensive .... I didnt see any nekked people running around or one alien calling another slime . :)
Are Omega Destroyers more powerful than Calamari Cruisers, or SD's?
SD's rely on Stormy Idjuts for gunnery. They're a dead loss, just like the universe they inhabit! X wings & Imp shuttle cool designs though:)
@@SpacialKatana Oh, Thanks!

Nah, the turrets are along the top and bottom of the main body. I posted pics of it recently in the community tab, good views for you there.
The Churchill was that close and missed?!?!?! The crew needs to go back to base and give their ship to some one with some gunnery skills.
🤣
Nice to see the attacking ship get blasted apart.👍
Thanks for the visit
I think the omegas targeting sensors need a bit of work
🤔🧐
I'm starting to get the impression that these new guys are playing their game. Although they can also be a substitute for Drakhs, as servants of Shadows.
I also understood why they were not immediately attacked by ISA: they did not immediately imagine aggression, and then struck when they collected all the information about the enemy. Just like in "The Legend of the Rangers".
The Churchills target acquisition is as bad as the aming from the dumbest Stormtrupper.

@@SpacialKatana thanks for saying mate :)
@@appsstore11 Haha no worries, it's on my 'to do' list.
Rather creative depiction of what would be a "middleborn" race
Haven't earth gunners ever heard of "leading the target"??
They're doing it right, the cruiser's jamming tech is superior. The gunners be like 'what happen?'
Yes, that was an offensive alright. As an Omega Class Destroyer fan, I found this outcome very offensive! :)
Haha, I love it too and Meurig did an awesome job modeling it. i did a video of a fleet of them with Whitestars a while back and I know you'd like that :)
@@SpacialKatana I remember that vid. Having a bright blue planet as a backdrop was brilliant!
And Omega gunner are blind too.
By the way. I really hope the B5 reboot will be real, really.
❤️👍
This?
This is the human ship that impressed the Minbari so much that they copied the design for their new destroyer?
👍👍

Whoever Is Aiming Those Weapons Needs To Be Fired! 😛

EarthForce can't shoot.
Nope, they can't.
Lousy 🎯 targeting
Thanks for watching
Wow that was intense.
