The basic idea is that weapon vs shielding technology is a constant uphill battle. In Wing Commander 1, the weapon strength was sufficient to punch through capital ship shielding. In Wing Commander 2, the capital ships had better shields. In Wing Commander 3, fighter weapons had improved and...

This thread became infinitely more interesting when we stopped talking about Rigit's topic.

Maybe people were more polite back then and the polite form became the standard form from general usage.

It's an American automotive enthusiast magazine. That's probably why you're not familiar with it.

Thanks. Now "Dude (Looks Like a Lady)" is my new earworm.

Huzzah!

Amazing that people were still using WebTV in 2002.

They removed the spam message so all context is lost :<

well can't you drop some of the WC2 voice files into WCA?

nice to know

I'm pretty sure Luna Jones only has mention in the Claw Marks excerpt above. In that case, really any idea goes.

These glosses can't come quickly enough. Whenever I see a new one is posted I stop what I'm doing and read it.

Maybe Vaquero forgot to trim his nails

Someone who killed as many Kilrathi as he did? The first episode of Academy shows us quite frankly the Kilrathi's attitude towards treason. Even the Mandarin movement Thrakhath was just exploiting to get his hands on a Morningstar. Double agents generally have to be the bad guy to...

I wonder if Hobbes would have faced trust issues trying to reintegrate into Kilrathi society had he lived long enough to do so. I mean, if you have a friend who one day turns his back on you then some time later comes back to you saying he's your friend again, you might not trust him very much...

What's the source of the Kilrathi medals?

I was thinking about that, too. We were talking about whether it was a Kilrathi analogue to the Midway or what it really ended up being. I enjoy the amount of history being fleshed out here. I can just imagine squadrons of Kraken and how frightening that must have been.

Well, to be clear, Jazz didn't frame Blair for the destruction of the Tiger's Claw. Once the former started killing people on the Concordia, he starts casting doubt on the latter, because he and everyone else on the ship are aware of Blair's past and former conviction. I don't think anyone...

Well don't forget that the intro of WC2 makes it clear that both Thrakhath and the Emperor are very aware of who Blair is and how much trouble he has caused the Kilrathi. Also just because his personality overlay was destroyed doesn't negate the fact that he had spent the previous 12 or so...
