"Even in B5, it seemed like the Earth fighters obeyed the laws of physics, but the Minbarri stuff didn't."
A little off-topic, but FWIW, that was because the Minbari had gravitic drive systems, as opposed to having to rely on the 'laws of physics' and unglamorous things like thrusters and velocity. One of the things (among many) I always like about B5 was the relatively 'hard' sci-fi bent it had compared to other scifi series of the time...
