    BWS status

    The novelization clearly states that the Intrepid is still a UBW ship, when it mentions that Blair and presumeably Maniac hitching a ride on it to their new commands, we're not sure when Panther returns to Confed or exactly when that cutscene took place. For all we now all of those pilots were...

    BWS status

    And where is the proof that UBW isn't allowed to have carriers? If Landreich is allowed to possess carriers then I doubt that the UBW isn't.

    BWS status

    And a destroyer conversion from a class which was retired a decade earlier, running on two-thirds engines and power with a destroyed bridge and massive damage from torpedo hits and internal fires is somehow in better shape? Also we know that the Intrepid was still under BW control after the...

    Confed Corvettes

    If a Paradigm is supposed to be a top-of-the-line frigate or destroyer then why is it's armor so light? I haven't seen destroyers with armor that light since WC1.

    BWS status

    Why do people keep claming that the UBW gave Intrepid back to Confed? I know they gave the St. Helens and the Princeton back but they were captured/seized by the UBW during the fighting. The BWS Intrepid (or rather the TCS Delphi which was modified and became the BWS Intrepid) was sold the one...

    A few Wing Commander questions

    The cloaked fighters that destroyed the Claw were prototypes. The factory that produced them was destroyed so they didn't enter mass production and weren't encountered by Confed again until WC2.

    That's probably just Blair helping train BW pilots as a gesture of good-will. The UBW is still independent during Prophecy, and Intrepid is so out of date that I can't think of any reason for Confed to ask for her.

    Confed Corvettes

    I always thought that Confed corvettes deserved more attention as well. And actually we see two Confed corvette classes. I've seen refernces claiming that the Paradigm-class are Destroyers but they're weapons ard armor are far too similar to the weapons and armor on the Kamekh-class Corvettes...

    A few Wing Commander questions

    A few years before the Kilrathi War the Pilgrims attacked the Confederation. During the war they enslaved or killed the population of the worlds they conquered so a lot of people who were affected by their actions have a grudge against them, and during the Kilrathi War some Pilgrims tried to...

    Hornet Fans

    If you're defending anything other then a carrier you're in deep trouble, and burning capships takes forever. For any non-escort, non-anti-capship duties it's a lot of fun.

    Black Lance Fighter?

    The bad PR from being the fighter of choice of Tolwyn and friends could have very easily doomed it.

    How do I dodge missiles?

    Been there, done that, didn't live to tell about it.

    Hellcat V vs. Rapier II

    Do you remember what the gun loadout on the sim fighter was? Also I thought all of the fighters on the Victory were older models. We see Longbows in Academy, and IIRC Blair refers to the Thunderbolt as a old fighter in the WC3 novel.

    A WC rumor

    I would personally prefer prequels so we can see more about the earlier decades of the Kilrathi War, and the earlier ships which were mentioned but never shown in detail.

    Wing Commander type novel

    There was a sequel that was never released but there's a detailed outline, and IIRC events from that are referenced in Star Soldier.

    Todd & Rosy - a sad story, indeed

    I think ELTEE was referring to the Armada Lexington which Blair couldn't have served on.

    Origins of the Banshee II?

    Maybe we have the Banshee I and Banshee II mixed up. I don't know if there's anything offical that states that the UBW Banshee is the Banshee II so perhaps the UBW Banshee is the actually Banshee I and the Armada Banshee is actually the Banshee II. If so the Banshee I and Rapier I could be from...

    Races enslaved by the Kilrathi

    I can only remember one time that Kilrathi ate a human, and I believe that was considered a gesture of respect for her skill as a warrior. Either that or it was just another way to piss Blair off.

    Torpedo Question

    Actually it's 12 torpedoes per destroyer not 5.

    What actually happened at K'Tithrak Mang?

    Actually Fleet Action says he left on a two week leave the day before the Tiger's Claw was destroyed. Since at the end of Freedom Flight the Tiger's Claw is still intact logically they have to be two different leaves.
