I'm not going to be impressed with the lighting of the torch until they top having some disabled athlete shoot a flaming arrow into the cauldron from across the stadium. Though, with all that wirework one wonders if they got a Hong Kong movie director to plan the rest of the opening ceremony.

Early on, equip your interceptors with dual Avalanche missile launchers. This will enable one to take down anything up to a Terror ship (stay at long range using the cautious attack), and if you get two to gang up on one, a terror ship is easy pickings. Now, research plasma weapons before...

My favorite way to clear a barn or a building is to get a soldier with high strength, and turn him into a grenadier. By having him throw high explosive packs around in the early game, he becomes deadly when you get enough alien grenades. That, and you can always do the grenade cha-cha line...

They're real bastards until you finish researching the alien's plasma weapons. Then one heavy plasma bolt takes them down easily. Now, when you do research their weapons, keep a couple Heavy Lasers on the transport. Trust me on this one.

And what always looked like blue denim cargo pants to me.

Research alien alloys and laser weapons (up to rifle) ASAP. You will need the protection and the extra firepower. And if you ever get a night terror mission, and a black crab looking thing is sitting by the ramp, don't ignore him. You really wouldn't want to do that.

Speaking of changes to "Return of the Jedi," Lucas did not originally have the second Death Star at Endor. It was originally slated to be over Kashyyyk, and instead of Ewoks we would have had Wookiees beating the stormtroopers to death. Why he changed this, we'll never know.

That 9000 will bog you down quite a bit, but it should be playable. ATI's OpenGL support sucks, but looks to be improving with the beta Catalyst drivers that are floating around.

What exactly is Tempest supposed to be doing with the voiceovers?

What about the TCS Intrepid, or the TCS Lexington? EDIT: Looking at the CIC Encyclopedia's ship list, I see the TCS Ark Royal. And who can forget the TCS Victory?

Currently obtaining. The rips are pretty big, and I can't have BT going 24/7.

I've bought the original trilogy three times already, so I don't feel so guilty "obtaining" LD rips from questionable sources.

Did it get destroyed along with the lunar shipyards at the Battle of Terra?

Sounds more like the Golden Sun ceremony from WC SNES than WC PC, but it's the closest thing that I can think of.

Track 29 is the music that plays during the in-mission jump sequences.
