I've been watching B5 again. Well I recently finished up the entire series. It TOOK forever and a day to do this but it was worthwhile.
My only question now is why are the death counts always so low? I mean the entire Narn home world is destroyed and the deaths are in the millions.... The Earth-Minbari war only sees a few million human causalities. I don't understand that figure since the outer colonies were totally destroyed and so were all human ships. One would think that that death count would rise into the tens of millions. I mean come on 25-30 million Russians died during WWII.
Even the Drakh battle should have had 100,000 to a million human causalities. I think it said 250 destroyers were lost and even if 100 people man a destroyer (unlikely) then that is at least 100,000+ deaths. Some might have made it out during the evacuation call.
