I like it...it works. Though I prolly, being a less blood-thirsty
individual, unlike your Narn self, would've called 'em 'Piggyback Racks'
(piggyback...piggy...pig..spare ribs?? :-} oh, it's lunchtime!!)

I think you coulda also presented this in non-spoiler fashion so our
friends who are avoiding spoilers like the plague would read it. Merely
forego mentioning anything about That Episode, or save it for the end?
Mmmmmm...naw, presenting it as a generic system would, I think, work
fine.
Doesn't have to be B5-specific. Heck, I can imagine it utilized in
almost
an genre.

Well...you asked!  :-)
