abstract
  • The Babylon Project is styled as a fan-made total conversion mod for the video game FreeSpace 2, although what it is in actual fact is a full standalone freeware game based on the same engine. It is set in The Verse of the television series Babylon 5. The Babylon Project contains all the ships of the series, and several campaigns, including: * Included in the download version: * A short campaign used as a demo release, set during the Earth-Minbari War. * "The Raider Wars", an extended campaign set around the time of the first episode of the TV show's run ("Midnight on the Firing Line") and expanding on that episode's premise. * The DVD release includes the above modules plus: * "The Earth-Brakiri War", an extended campaign set in an alternate 2260, where Babylon 5 had been destroyed and the Shadow War never took place. Or did it? * A six module training campaign called "Io Training Wing", set in Jovian orbit. * "Infestation", a non-linear campaign billed as "Aliens meets Event Horizon meets Babylon 5". * Actually going so far as to use snippets of dialog from Aliens and Event Horizon to build their story, and name the derelict ship found in the first mission the "Event Horizon." * "Drums of War", where you play a Narn pilot in a war with the Centauri. * "Dark Children", where you play one of the Shadows. * "Survivor", a survival mode with 10 levels of ever-increasing difficulty. * "B5 Star Fury Pilot", a series of single missions (available from the Tech Data/Mission Simulator menu) featuring several of the major battles of the TV series. * "Fortune Hunters": Play from the POV of one of the Raiders (See "The Raider Wars" above). * "The Black Hand": Play as a Psi Cop on a secret mission. * A fun training module based on the original FreeSpace training module, featuring a wonderfully bored Deadpan Snarker flight instructor. The mod also has a mod of its own, called "Zathras" (after the quirky caretaker of Epsilon 3 in the TV series), which adds visual and other effects to the game to make it look even more like the TV series. Not to be confused with the Babylon 5 wiki of the same name.
