No, her exact line was, "No human captain has ever survived battle with a
Minbari fleet." Sinclair wasn't a captain.

And thanks.

Basically, the Marines burned through the outer hull, moved into the inner
hull (like any good vessel, this one is double hulled), then came up at a
right angle, looking for a good wall to come through. You *don't* want to
come up through the floor, because then you have to climb out one or two at a
time, which makes you a sitting duck. Better to move off a few feet, and
come up via a section between walls and blow your way through so you can come
out en masse.

That's the White Star, and thanks.

I didn't have any particular battle in mind, no, but I have a
passing familiarity with battle tactics, and wanted to create that
sense in a battle of pieces...you never really see the whole battle,
each soldier sees his or her part of it, and at the end, we call it the
battle of X. That sense of out-of-control events. It was something I
wanted very much to get right.

I think it comes from being a depressing person to be around.

"Oh, look, you got a present!"

"Yeah, well, I'll probably get a paper cut opening it...."

"Given the amount of lousy TV around, you must be an optimist, since
you dug into the manure and found the pony."

Damn thing bit me, too....
