Narn Regime (Babylon 5 Fan Mod)

Description
Having relatively recently freed themselves from the bondage of the Centauri, the Narn are defensive and warlike, fearing the Centauri may strike again. They are a spiritual people, and have been working to renew what pieces of their old culture remain. While they may be the weakest of the four major younger races in terms of weapons technology, their ships are heavily armored and they work hard to maintain their survival.

The Narn have middle-of-the-road weapons and thruster technology, with more varied and better armor than the humans. Their famed G'Quan Class ships have twin beams of deadly power, but they must line up their shots precisely. Their energy mines are remarkably powerful, however, and they have decent output on their plasma cannons. Their fighters are fast and manueverable, rivaling any of the younger races.

I've had these guys sitting around for close to a year now, maybe more, and I finally decided to stop tweaking them every five nanoseconds and just release them into the wild. Yes, that's really what the G'Quan looks like from top-down. Anyways, have fun!

For future notice, this mod will be the mod I update with new features and overhauls. If enough people prefer older versions, let me know in the comments below and I'll upload legacy versions as separate mods.

Credits, sources, or things what I made great use of:
- First Image Source: https://babylon5.fandom.com/wiki/Narn_Regime?file=Wiki_narnregime.png
- Deviantart user humonb's gallery has been invaluable in getting top-down images of various Babylon 5 ships: https://www.deviantart.com/humonb/gallery
- From what I can figure out, a lot of humonb's references (as well as mine) come from the 'A Call to Arms' tabletop fleet strategy game, from Mongoose Publishing. Additionally, descriptions of the roles and uses the game discusses help give me a feel for the size, weapon output, and utility of various ships.
- This site has some in-depth information on the design process behind various canon Babylon 5 ships, as well as providing some useful still shots to inform my designs: https://www.b5scrolls.com/
- The B5 Technical Manual was a starting point for a lot of my research, and helped me fill in the gaps. Some of it's information is of questionable canon-icity, though: https://www.b5tech.org/default.htm
- The Youtube Channel Spacedock provides some handy information as well, though again it is only concerned with canon B5 ships: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCfjaAUlTZRHJapJmCT6eyIg

I'm glad you like it! I just uploaded my Centauri Republlic mod, if you're interested. I've also updated my descriptions of these B5 mods to reflect the sources I've made use of, in case you or anyone else wants to check them out!
