[@SageofStars]

To be fair, one piece of tech decided that. Take away the Mimbari Cloak, and humanity would have trounced them at every engagement. Their tactics were archaic, and worked only because the enemy had to get too close to make use of anything else, and their production of ships and soldiers lagged far, FAR behind the races around them. Humanity would have won by simply out producing them, at the end of the day. And that is NOT fan speculation, that is straight from the series creator's mouth.

[@michaelkotcher5491]

So then by the end of the series, when the Alliance has gifted gravity tech to the Humans, along with what they got from the White Stars and the Shadow Destroyer ships, likely the humans might be a match for the Minbari? If they were so inclined to fight, I mean.

[@SageofStars]

@@michaelkotcher5491 The very fact that humans HAD those shadow ships was an indication of how far along they'd come. Never forget, not one of the other races, EVEN the Drahk, or any other servant was making use of the Shadow Tech itself. The servants got the 'lesser' toys to play with. And the White Star was very much a joint project, one that, according to the comics, was centuries in the making, simply for the Rangers to even begin to understand their tech. Humans? In about 15 years had studied, reverse engineered, and cultured/grown enough of the organitech of the Shadows to outfit an entire flotilla of destroyers. No help from them, given what we know later. They just...did it, all on their own. Imagine if Sheridan HADN'T decided to free the human race from President Klink(Clark). Ten years on, humanity emerges with vessel no one can beat, as the Destroyers remain the only ships with ?s in all categories. Even the Shadow and Vorlon vessels had more info on them. And it too FAR fewer of the white stars working at angles to defeat a shadow cruiser compared to needing to pound the destroyers with collective fire. Humanity would be ascendant, with the other races bowing and scrapping at their heels, and a madman would rule the galaxy.

Ah correct what goodness grammar

[@Harbringer12]

Can someone please explain what "Deathworld" means in this context? I'm a tad confused why it illicits immediate fear from these aliens in this situation.

[@thewesterj]

They basically consider the whole planet as Australia that an 200k years of war with each other.

[@hweidigiv]

Rather than being a "cradle for life", a "death world" is too deadly to survive on, much less spawn sophont civilization. Consider a modern first-world country, where a little money provides you with food, shelter, and entertainment. In this analogy, that would be a "Garden World". A "Death World" would be Death Valley in the USA or the Outback in Australia; extreme temperatures, deadly wildlife, and almost no access to food. A deathworld only exists as a comparison to other Earth-like planets, and assumes that such a planet requires severe terraforming before colonization would be safe.

[@Harbringer12]

@@hweidigiv Oh, so basically the planets these hypothetical aliens developed on are so bountiful in agricultural resources that they view Earth as 'sparse' Okay, thank you for explaining

[@FirstIsa]

​@@Harbringer12more they are less hazardous. On non-deathworlds you don't have to worry about thousands or millions of microbes that can kill you, temperature changes are narrower if not more stable, their "great" storms are our idea of a mild spring shower rather than chucking lightning bolts with enough power to generate antimatter...

[@Ale_10010]

What is a deathworlder?

[@arcdecibel9986]

Someone who evolved on a planet full of deadly threats like predators, hostile flora, and diseases. Earth could easily be regarded as one if other life evolved in gentler conditions. Plus, Earth is at the upper limit of what kind of gravity complex terrestrial life can evolve under. At around 1.5g the gravity and atmospheric pressure are just too much for carbon-based life (probably the only kind) to be more than sedentary.

[@Ale_10010]

@@arcdecibel9986 👍

[@Headloser]

The human are kind helpful race and are eager for peace. I doubt it would be us though.

[@swaginton1180]

honestly the thought of earth being a death world is funny to me. maybe it was one a few hundred million years ago sure but not inour current era of fauna and flora

[@FirstIsa]

The assumption is that most life isn't going to evolve on a planet with a million microbes that can kill you, where surface temperatures range from cold enough to kill anything to hot enough to kill anything, where weather generates electrical discharges strong enough to create antimatter, gravity that is as destructive as it is helpful. There is a lot of things that can kill us without us realizing it on earth, heck not too long ago 60% of the Saiga Antelope died within a week all across Asia and Eastern Europe simply because the average temperature stayed too high for too long giving the otherwise benign bacteria in their sinuses a chance to proliferate unchecked causing hemorrhagic shock.
