He ejected before the Broadsword blew. And I think Iceman was already dead when the Claw was destroyed. The system he was killed in is a sector that the Claw would have passed through en route to K'Tithrak Mang from Vega.

Maybe the 2 turrets were replaced with more anti-capship weapons? I know we never see them but given that every Confed carrier class we see, with the exceptions of the Concordia-class and the Lexington-class which we never see engage enemy capships, has anti-capship weapons it's only logical to...

I believe that the novels are the official version.

Both these incidents are more due the enemy's strength and pilot overconfidence then a flaw in the Epee. Taking on three heavy fighters at once in a light fighter is a bad idea. Taking on seven heavy fighters at once in a light fighter is insanity.

Concordia.

Late 2660s Confed destroyers carry 12 forward torpedo tubes.

Assuming I'm reading the maps right Epsilon sector is between Vega sector and Enigma sector so maybe Iceman was killed while the Tiger's Claw was passing through Epsilion sector on it's way to Enigma sector.

Thrakhath doesn;t seem to have a probelm with disobeying the Emperor's direct orders when he feels like it though. In Fleet Action the Emperor tells Thrakhath that he wants to hold the Sivar-Eshrad on Earth before he dies and Thrakhath orders the fleet to render Earh uninhabitable despite that...

I thought that the Kilrathi intentionally dropped the pod in the system Blair was assigned to.

According to the WC Wikipedia the Terran Confederation was formed in 2416 after the World Economic Consortium fell. But according to the ad for the No Mercy holovid the main character of the Crusader series was responseible for the World Economic Consortium's fall. The thing is if I remember...

Where is it stated that Panther returned to Confed?

That makes sense because the Tiger's Claw had torpedo tubes and torpedoes weren't used by the Kilrathi until 2634. We don't know when they entered Confed service but it had to be after that.

The probelm with that statement is that Tarawa actually has better anti-capship firepower then Victory. As far as we know all Victory has for anti-capship work is one capship missile launcher and Tarawa has multiple torpedo tubes which means Tarawa has a higher chance of scoring a hit. And if...

If 4 torps can kill or cripple anything short of a supercarrier, 1 torp should easily be able to hull a pre-war class of light carrier. and Tarawa and the other escort carriers didn't seem to any problems deploying their fighters in a hurry during the Second Battle of Hell Hole or the Battle of...

The Broadsword and Dralthi entries need the data for the Arena variants added and I think the Dralthi mk.2 has the wrong guns listed. The entry lists 2 lasers and 1 mass driver as it's guns but it's supposed to be 2 mass drivers and no lasers if I remember right.

Why is the entry for the Mandarins blank?

Things seem to be going well but I think someone needs to add specs on the Arena Broadswords before everyone has time to forget that the data needs to be added.

Tarawa. A slightly larger fighter wing (45 to 40 as mentioned earlier), an unknown number (or al least I don't know the number) of torpedo tubes, and heavier AA weapons (Neutron Guns and Mass Drivers to HotT Laser Turrets) gives the Tarawa the win IMO.

Didn't Landriech also loan some of their Escort Carriers to the UBW fleet during TPoF?

1: Either a typo in the script or a mistake on the actor's part that wasn't corrected. 2: The movie take's place before the TV series and first game with the TV Series and first game taking place during each other.
