Description Babylon 5, Episode "Severed Dreams" -

During the Earth Alliance Civil War of 2260 the EAS Agrippa (an Omega-class Battleship) led a battlegroup to the Epsilon System, with orders to seize control of Babylon 5 and arrest John Sheridan and the command staff. In the battle that followed, the Agrippa exchanged fire with the EAS Alexander. Towards the end of the fighting, the Alexander and Babylon 5 fired every weapon they had at the Agrippa, knocking the ship out of control. Moments later, a series of explosions gutted the Agrippa, and all hands on board were lost.

Nice pic but why is the presidential ship jumping into a battle? I is lightly armed and basically the space version of AirForce One

That was one awesome episode, drama in every second, where B5 breaks away from earth gov & gives shelter to a renegade earth force ship

But it kind of is against the plot. Agrippa was loyal to Clark, yet here escorting EFO?  


Anyway. Marvelous episode, just wow to watch.

I was imagining an escort of Clark's Earthforce One.

That episode was really something.  You mean the heroes secede from Earth and start a civil war?  Kirk and Picard never did that.

It was something to see for certain, but with President Clark going full bore Nazi, if Kirk or Picard were in Sheridan's boots, they also would be left short of alternatives.  

I also liked how Sheridon took his combined forces to liberate Earth.

Trek wouldn't have gone there before B5.  It would be settled in one episode with no real consequences, like in the TNG episode when the parasites were taking over Starfleet.

OliverInk In reply to JRXTIN [2019-10-07 20:47:16 +0000 UTC]

That actually took 2 episodes in TNG to finish.

Did it?  I remember an episode where Picard met a group of Captains in secret, and then one of their ships was destroyed.  I'm not sure what happened after that, in that episode.

Was it that fight or later on when Delene showed up and told the Earth Forces they better find someplace else to be?

From memory, "Only one man has survived confrontation with Minbari forces.  He is behind me.  You are in front of me.  I suggest you find someplace else to be."


I'm sure that's not word-for-word accurate, but very close.

Here is the actual scene.  Babylon 5 and the EAS Alexander had barely survived the initial attack by President Clark's forces (EAS Churchill had been destroyed but took one of Clark's ships out with them) when more of Clark's forces arrived.  Was a kickass scene:

That's just about it. I loved how the Earth Forces immediately turned around and left!

Love the Giger-esque fish ships.  Shame the smaller Minbari ships weren't as cool.

True. But regardless of the show, not every ship design's going to be a winner.

I can't rightly recall if she said it during that conflict or no.

But she sure was good at that, wasn't she?

My particular favorite scene of her going badass was when she confronted the Drakh forces after they destroyed one of her White Stars.

She could definitely get her "mad" on when she wanted.

Stopping short of taking out the Earth on her first stab at it, before a change of heart, pretty much counts as getting her mad on to me!

LOL

Thank you for the episode name!

Following the Shadow War, it was a damn good episode of the Earth Alliance Civil War to be sure!
