Babylon 5 ACTA: a second Hyperion cruiser

 I love Hyperions in my Earth Alliance fleet, the true workhorses of the fleet and useable in every one of the three EA lists.

 

Now, they have variations over the various era's, and by the Crusade era they are nothing more then armoured transport vessels, but still, they are there.

 

And that makes painting them up really rewarding, as you can always use them, varrying on levels either being Raid or Skirmish, depending the variant.  And this one is a second "regular" version, though in the later days of the game some variants actually received dedicated sculpts, and I'll be painting up some of those as well.

 

Of course, I also painted it's "on board" flight of starfuries, opting for Aurora's again as these are, apart from the iconic EA fighter, also by far the best variant, perhaps only eclipsed by the Minbari fighters, and even slightly.

 

Now the fleet can already be fielded at 5 skirmish level, and I'm going to try to get a small scale game in to get reacqainted with the rules and mechanics, but it won't stop there to paint them up!
