Re: Affiliations Guess who just got the Prophecy strategy guide? Anyhow, the border Worlds is still a seperate political entity according to the guide. After the events in WCIV, Confed and the UBW worked on strengthening their ties. One of the tools used was a compact between them for...

Be careful Frosty, or folks will think you've developed a softer side :) I imagine I'm overly sentimental when it comes Blair and Rachel. I was actually the rebound guy for my wife when we started dating. We were in college and she had dated this other guy since she was in High school and...

That was going to be my question. At least we are not alone in our ignorance :)

Yeah DivX 4 works. I think when you install the codecs, just make sure you check off you want it to support 3.x DivX. For those of you who need the codec it can be found here. http://www.divx.com/download/downloadlist.php?typeid=1 I do wonder what the Blair scene is supposed to be.

I would have still liked Rachel and Blair to get back together. I was a little creeped out with her and Casey. Not as badlay as Anakin and Padme in Phantom Menace, since at least Casey has gotten most of the way through puberty, but still...

SWC was the only one with speech for the first WC game, correct? I remeber being very excited about the speech pack for WC2 when it came out.

I agree with Quarto and Frosty on the Black Lance. It's one thing to go on a war of conquest against another species, it's a hell of a lot worse to kill your own kind. All three (bugs, cats and bl) used bioweapons (for the bugs that is hinted at in the SO fiction), but the cats and the bugs at...

I think this complies with rule 4 since it is part of the discussion. However, it may violate rule 8. http://www.fortunecity.co.uk/cinerama/animation/516/nude-celebrities/elb.html

I was mistaken, at least I didn't see the run off with pirates info in my WCIV guide. Not sure where I saw it. I thumbed through the novel last night but didn't see it there, was it a scene in the game? Am I losing my mind since I'm replying to myself?

That's what I meant, if I wasn't clear.

I think her bio with that info is in the WCIV strategy guide. I think she considers killing Kilrathi and killing innocent humans two very different things. I know that look you are talking about Col. Dom.

I may be getting WCIII and IV confused. I know the set of missions in IV where you don't have sensors you also have bad visibility, at least it seemed that way to me. I thought the bad visibility was also in WCIII (you couldn't see things until they were closer than you usually could) but I...

It's you. Seriously, it is smallish, but it was basically just a big gun. With engines mounted on it. One would have thought what it traded in size it would make up for in speed, but that isn't the case. Wasn't the phase transit cannon on the Confederation class a Confed modification...

I don't know, I thought the whole cast of WC1 was fabulous. You had Halycon's eyebrows furrow and eyes narrow when he was upset. And you knew he was upset because of the proper use of exclamation points. Blair got the confused look down with wide open eyes and raised eyebrows. Maybe because...

Yeah she fought with Hawk but it was to "do the right thing" She did have that innocent look thing going for her. Even when she was arguing with Hawk, she didn't seem bitchy, just earnest.

Wasn't it a Firend or Foe and the drayman's IFF transmitter had gotten damaged?

Reduced visibility, iirc. I also think you couldn't get missle locks as far out, but since firing them from ffar off is usally a waste anyhow...

There was just something about the music in Privateer that just fit the mood of the game, more so than in the others. But in general all the music in the games has been great. There's just something about Privateer it sticks with me more.

-Strike Commander (on my old P133) -Civ III (on my laptop while on the train) -X-Wing (Replaying the whole series, almost to the Death Star. Using the updated Collector's CD version) -NCAA football on my Playstation (I much prefer the version of the Ohio State Football season to...

Was he part of the Imperial Clan or from another bloodline. It's been a while since I read the novel and I don't have it on hand. I know some of the Kilrathi (esp in Action Stations) have a problem with him surrendering) I'm wondering on what authority he did it.
