Deneb

Deneb (/ˈdɛnɛb/; α Cyg, α Cygni, Alpha Cygni) is the brightest star in the constellation Cygnus, it is one of the vertices of the Summer Triangle and forms the 'head' of the Northern Cross. It is the 19th brightest star in the night sky, with an apparent magnitude of 1.25. A blue-white supergiant, Deneb is also one of the most luminous nearby stars. However, its exact distance (and hence luminosity) has been difficult to calculate; it is estimated to be somewhere between 55,000 and 196,000 times as luminous as the Sun.

Visibility

Deneb lies at one vertex of a widely spaced asterism called the Summer Triangle, the other two members of which are the zero-magnitude stars Vega in the constellation Lyra and Altair in Aquila. This formation is the approximate shape of a right triangle, with Deneb located at one of the acute angles. The Summer Triangle is recognizable in the northern skies for there are few other bright stars in its vicinity.

Deneb is also easily spotted as the tip of the Northern Cross asterism made up of the brightest stars in Cygnus, the others being Beta (Albireo), Gamma, Delta, and Epsilon Cygni. It never dips below the horizon at or above 45° north latitude, just grazing the northern horizon at its lowest point at such locations as Minneapolis, Montréal and Turin.

Ogre Battle: The March of the Black Queen

Ogre Battle: The March of the Black Queen (伝説のオウガバトル, Densetsu no Ōga Batoru, "Legendary Ogre Battle") is a 1993 real-time tactical role-playing video game directed by Yasumi Matsuno with artwork by Akihiko Yoshida. It is the first installment of an episodic series, and was originally developed by Quest. Originally released for the Super NES, it has since been released for the Sega Saturn, PlayStation, Virtual Console, and cell phones.

It was followed up by a sequel in 1995, Tactics Ogre: Let Us Cling Together.

Gameplay

Ogre Battle: The March of the Black Queen begins in the outskirts of the Zeteginan Empire, twenty-four years after the founding of the empire through conquest. The main character is leading a revolution against this empire, which has turned to evil through the use of black magic by the mage Rashidi.

The game begins with the seer Warren using tarot cards to ask a series of questions to determine the player's suitability as leader of the revolution. There are several questions out of a fixed set which are randomly asked, each of which is associated with one of the twenty-two Major Arcana cards of divinatory tarot. Each question has three possible answers: one righteous, one evil, and one neutral. After the player finishes answering the questions, Warren wishes luck for the revolution and the game begins. The player's answers to these questions determine the Lord's (main character's class) abilities and starting units.

List of locations in Babylon 5

The Babylon 5 television show and associated television movies created a fictional universe containing a large number of planets, moons, and other locations.

Normal space

A prevalent setting in the fictional universe are planets and other locations that exist in normal space. There is at least one scene that explicitly documents the real world location, the Milky Way galaxy, as portrayed in the lower image to the right. Most references are implicit.

Within the fictional galaxy are at least one quadrant and grid or sector, and stars containing planetary systems. Several other sectors and quadrants are referenced in the fictional universe, but are not listed here because they are neither used as settings, nor do they have real world references.

Centauri system

The planet Centauri Prime is the homeworld of the fictional species Centauri. Neither the star, nor its system has a real world reference. The planet is used as a secondary setting in many episodes and movies.
