    BattleTech is a bad game -- don't buy it

    Saying Jack McKinney (two guys, actually a pen name) wrote good novelizations = instant loss of credibility with me. But I'll forgive you, since you might not know any better. Yet. Don't get me wrong, I'm not a rabid Robotech hater like some people. I actually continue to enjoy the series...

    Why Do Kilrathi Not Exist?

    I think WC3 was much more exciting than Academy.

    Elite Carrier Wing

    The point of special forces is to have the best equipment, not weak equipment so they can prove they are really good. However, special forces types still train to kill people with knives, forks, little bits of string, and their bare hands. Moral of the story: right tool for the right job...

    Do not eat pie, it is bad!

    I still like Mr. Obutu. Then again, I don't really care nor follow what actors think. They're just highly-sophisticated, fleshy action figures, in the final analysis.

    Escort vs Light Carrier.

    I think the main virtue of the escort carriers were that they were cheap to build. They didn't have to be powerful, or survivable, or particularly well-suited for any mission; their main advantage (to Confed) is that you could build tons of them cheaply and quickly. Similar to their role in...

    Concept Idea (please don't hate me)

    Well, they're "image recognition" missiles, and we know they have an all-aspect capability. Presumably the "image" part implies that they're video guided, sorta like the Maverick missile, or the Tomahawk, but more advanced. I would think something that would lock on to the outline of a...

    codenames for DRT & flashpack

    I keep wondering why he doesn't get the hint and slink off to sulk.

    Do not eat pie, it is bad!

    What was wrong with Mr. Obutu? I kinda liked him. And what planet did this Joshua Harrington guy come from? I'm LMAO every time I run across one of his threads.

    Kitty Litters ???

    I think you can certainly make this argument, as Thrakhath's Bloodfang seems to be the only fighter that escapes (at least it seems pretty likely that it's the Bloodfang, since we know for sure Thrakhath couldn't have kicked the bucket yet). However, I don't think it's explicitly shown that...

    Prophecy sceenshot

    What, don't you remember how to get to the weapons cache? I must have run across it in my first few hours of play. It's right behind that asteroid base in the same system as--whoops, almost spoiled it for you. A bit more seriously, though, I recall someone wondering what had happened (in...

    Elite Carrier Wing

    Not to mention calling her the CAW would be rather silly, since you'd end up with a bunch of pilots sounding like crows. That just made me think of something, though... presumably, they sold copies of the various WC games overseas, and thus had to internationalize it, which meant (at least in...

    Why didn't Confed fight the Kilrathi more intelligently?

    Yeah, I think there were even a few missions that you couldn't win successfully (thank goodness for the losing path) unless your wingmen managed to deliver their own ordinance successfully, which (since they were retarded) meant blowing up all the turrets as fast as you could (especially that...

    Prophecy sceenshot

    The movie screenshots are kinda grainy; wish they had done a WCP DVD, eh? Well, maybe not... what happened to all those DVD-ROM games that were supposedly the wave of the future? *mumble mumble* I think just about everyone has a DVD-ROM now anyway... I'd buy into the format, even it just meant...

    Kitty Litters ???

    Bah, LOAF beat me to it. But here is what I was going to post... I always wondered if she got killed flying one too many missions (as Thrakhath came close to a number of times), or if she was still hanging around when Kilrah when blooey. Hrm, time to watch that episode again... BTW...

    Bladerunner

    I realize this is the off topic area; I was just curious as to what had brought on a discussion of Blade Runner. It seems like a fairly random thing to ask about. Replay value: I just saved a lot and went through most of the endings without having to do much replaying. However, I'd like to...

    Why didn't Confed fight the Kilrathi more intelligently?

    Yeah, there is (although you need to use a command line parameter to turn it on). I was being "sarcastic".
