I've found that in a one-on-one fight the Narn have the advantage when
using their Dradnought against the Centauri Battlecruiser.  Those Heavy
Beams pack a nasty punch.  The Centauri need to keep range so they can
avoid the Energy Mines and the extra dice from the Heavy Beams and then
wear the Narn down.  A nice, even match is the Omega and the Narn
Dreadnought (or a G'Quan if you play B5Wars).  The Omega has the
advantage
of having superior fighters.  As far as the Centauri Light cruiser goes,
I
think its under-powered for what we've seen it do in the series.  Don't
know how to rememdy that, but its still under-powered.

I too would love to see more EFSB on this list.  It is technically a GZG
product as Jon wrote most of the rules, so I think its a very valid
topic
for us.
