    Question about Destroyers

    Corvettes have a very dual-purpose role. For one, they are light escort craft, flying on the flanks of frigates and destroyers. You'll often see a large number of them in carrier groups, too. The second purpose of a Corvette is as a light attack craft. Ever wish you had a really really REALLY...

    Mission 3

    Ya. Mission 2 isn't actually that tough, the actual nasty issue is the trigger-happy pack of Salthi in the initial pass. You have to kill a BUNCH of them quickly - my favourite trick is if an asteroid spawns just to the side of the pack, with a quick move I can usually get 2-3 of them to hit it...

    I'm hoping you guys can tell me which WC game I'm thinking of..

    That's the multiplayer mode, of the Head-to-Head variety.

    Question about Destroyers

    Well, a frigate is a lighter escort ship than a destroyer. It's basically a cross between a destroyer and a corvette. Usually they'll fill the same roles as corvettes, only being used when a heavier ship is needed. Confed Frigates have Phase shields as well, do they not? Cruisers are one up...

    wing commander fashion

    I don't have a thing of the Zanart stuff, some of it would be really cool. I really hope there's another WC game someday, maybe there'll be new cool stuff.

    Hey, the Drakhai are cool! Though you're right, even though I haven't played WC2 since summertime, I remember exactly how "You cannot defeat the Drakhai!" sounds...lol...actually I remember a lot of voices from that game.

    ConFleet and Money

    LOL, you just reminded me of Privateer torpedoes. IIRC they could be fired dumb, couldn't they? I remember taking out a few things you shouldn't be able to with a torpedo, anyway...I wonder if you could take out a Steltek Drone with a torpedo?

    wing commander fashion

    Well, I was thinking of doing a Descent 2 mod of my labcoat that showed a Pyro GX with Jesus flying it with the caption "God flies an illegaly modified Pyro-GX" on the back, I'm sure something similar could be done for WC stuff. Also, around the time when WC3/WC4 was big, such merchandise WAS...

    Anyone good with dumbfires?

    Dumbfires Actually, when it comes to dumbfires I'm somewhat of a crack shot. WC1 was DF-paradise for me. Any mission where I didn't have to save them had a few less threatening Jalthis, that's for sure. Burn up to them, point-blank with a DF. Can't really miss, lol. At range with a DF...
