    Insignia

    Considering that WC is set six hundred years into the future you would think that there would be more ranks (after all six hundred years ago there were only a handful of ranks used). A larger military needs more ranks (especially in the middle & command areas) if it is to function well: Lt...

    Power distribution

    Quarto - I know that it is easier if the Shy Meadows mission is completed, but unfortunately my SO suffers from the strange bug that Romale had (Shy Meadows occasionally blows up before I even get clear of the Cerberus) so I was forced to go the alternate and much harder path. The last Prophecy...

    Power distribution

    Quarto...I die!!! Seriously though, the only times I ever run out are when I'm flying the Shrike or Devastator in Prophecy (neither has enough fuel) or if any mission lasts over ten-fifteen minutes (last Prophecy mission was a bitch). Other than those I can ride the burners all the way through...

    Power distribution

    Power distribution in WCP is easy (at least I think so)...all I do is throw power to guns (with a little for the shields) and I'm done. I ride the afterburners in most missions anyway...but I suppose it all depends on your flying style. ------------------ 'For the World is Hollow and I Have...

    I used to always play Dark Forces II: Jedi Knight (actually I stil do), and one of the ranks of the Dark Jedi was Primarch. ------------------ 'For the World is Hollow and I Have Touched the Sky'. Wing Commander - Secret Ops Missions http://saturn.spaceports.com/~wcsom/index.html

    so HELP

    The mission where you have to waste those three Manta Bombers was always a pain simply because the Manta is faster than the Shrike and if it gets ahead of you it's impossible to catch up... I first noticed the problem with Ep3 M1 about the third time I played the game through. Each time it...

    so HELP

    Have you ever completed that mission, or do the transports always blow up? ------------------ 'For the World is Hollow and I Have Touched the Sky'. Wing Commander - Secret Ops Missions http://saturn.spaceports.com/~wcsom/index.html

    WC Ships

    Personally I love the Vampire...the only ship with more speed and manoeuvrability is the Devil Ray. Sure the *Pitch* is a bit twitchy, but if you fly it a few times in the Sim before a mission you can do wonders...there is nothing like having a bug fighter behind you and then suddenly pulling up...

    If the cross is the Confed Flying Cross, why is it now used for General on this board??? ------------------ 'For the World is Hollow and I Have Touched the Sky'. Wing Commander - Secret Ops Missions http://saturn.spaceports.com/~wcsom/index.html

    Just a little something...

    The word Group indicates more than one ship. There were probably four of five Fralthi's but don't forget all the support ships (corvettes, transports etc.). And even if the Shipkiller couldn't completely destroy a Kilrathi dreadnought, I'd bet good money it would leave a great big hole in the...

    Salutes...

    Did you know that salutes came about in Medieval times when Knights used to raise the faceplate on their helmets to show that they meant no hostility...a useless bit of knowledge that I felt like telling you ------------------ 'For the World is Hollow and I Have Touched the Sky'. Wing...

    The Enemy in WC

    Personally I'm totally against Online Only games. Why?. Because not only would I have to pay for the game (approx. £40) when it comes out, I would also have to pay an online fee (another £10 at least) and then because I live in England I would have to pay a charge of 1p per-minute (which while...

    Just a little something...

    I doubt it. The Kilrathi Fleet in WCP was probably spread out over a distance more than 22km and apart from one hull, the entire fleet was blown into itty-bitty Cat chunks!!! However, the Kraken and Tiamet have one major flaw...they have to be facing the target they want to destroy with that...

    all is lost...

    Metras - not true, a lot of good fanfic is technical, it all depends on the authors writing style. ------------------ 'For the World is Hollow and I Have Touched the Sky'. Wing Commander - Secret Ops Missions http://saturn.spaceports.com/~wcsom/index.html

    _=Prophecy + Secret Ops+-

    You can try to reinstall the Episode again, though I don't know if it will make a difference because the history folder will still contain all the previous missions flown, new game or not (unless you know which ones to delete...I've never really looked that closely at them). By 'Base Install...

    _=Prophecy + Secret Ops+-

    The missions become unwinable because the transports and station blow up before your fighter is even out of the lauch tube, so messing around with the Nav Map is a waste of time (especially on the Shy Meadows mission because it is the very first Nav Point). Under normal circumstances the Lyton...

    _=Prophecy + Secret Ops+-

    I have that problem all the time. Once I've played the missions through and start a new game a few of the missions which were winable, become unwinable (Shy Meadows, Lyton Station etc.). The only cure is instead of choosing new game when you complete it, just reinstall the whole thing. It's a...

    Does anyone know how to get WC secret Ops by itself???
