The miniatures for Babylon 5 Wars seem reasonably priced compared to the
figures available for the NAC, ESU, NSL, etc. at $6.50. The real kicker
is the rules and boxed set of materials for Babylon 5 Wars. They're
asking $45 for their boxed game and $25 for their follow on books.
We'll buy the minis and use Mark's FT rules....
