    FB-202 "Ghoul" Long Range Fighter/Bomber

    It looks awesome. It reminds me a bit of the "Sai" fighter that appears with the Japanese fighter squadron in StarLancer.. but yours is better looking. Maybe that fin beneath the pod could fit missiles on it (which I think is what the Sai did in StarLancer). Otherwise if people think it looks...

    WC4 Bearcat

    The Bearcat was my favorite fighter for short engagements. I liked it even better than the Dragon in these situations since cloaking didn't help keep my wingmen alive. It was also very fun to fly since it was so fast and maneuverable (and I think it had slide capability which I liked). It...

    I'm finally getting hitched

    Looks like a beautiful place, very classy. That's a nice feature. That'd be a good place for people to post their comics, ship models, super soaker collections, or whatever.

    I'm finally getting hitched

    Congrats to you! Where'd you go for your honeymoon? Thanks st3lt3k! Congrats to you on being able to put that accent mark on the 'e' of fiancee, since I don't know how to do that! ;) I'm in a musical called "Forever Plaid" that's about a guys vocal group from the early 1960's. During...

    I'm finally getting hitched

    Well, I popped the question and she said yes! Fortunately she's very accepting of my fondness (addiction?) to Wing Commander. I uploaded the pictures onto my "Mjr. Whoopass" profile under the album labeled "Basic Album".

    Standoff Team Completes Final Cutscenes (August 2, 2008)

    If you don't finish this game, you've killed off all hands of the TCS Firekka! Can you really live with that guilt? We rendezvous with the Concordia, jump to Sol, and nothing... I guess that would mean our ship mis-jumped and splattered our atoms all over space! Just do it and get 'er done!

    Standoff Team Completes Final Cutscenes (August 2, 2008)

    Me too. I could picture a battle where your flight is getting chewed up by the next generation Kilrathi fighters and all seems lost until you get a comms to hold out for some re-inforcements from the Concordia. Then a flight of next generation Arrows starts bailing you out. This would only...

    See red no more

    Perhaps a little reverse psychology will spur them on? ;)

    See red no more

    Take your time guys! I'm sure I DON'T speak for everyone when I say that! My computer's down and I haven't wanted to fix it since I have a bunch of things to do and I'm more productive without my computer working (since I spend too much time playing Wing Commander games). I do hope you...

    Kilrathi Aces

    Since they didn't have ejection seats, maybe he just opened the hatch and jumped out? Or perhaps he was alive in his twisting left-over hulk of a fighter as it was recovered.

    Saga Goes Goth (September 7, 2008)

    I liked the 'clean' look of the fighters for the Prologue. I imagined that everything looked newer because they were training fighters that hadn't seen combat. I think it could make sense to have the more beat up looking fighters flown by squadrons that are seeing a lot of combat. I might...

    WC4 Mod For Homeworld 2 In The Works (June 5, 2006)

    Wow, those screenshots look pretty awesome

    Standoff Team Completes Final Cutscenes (August 2, 2008)

    I think the book mentions the Kilrathi have all new fighters for the invasion.. also I think I remember the Darket as having entered service around that time. Any chance we'll fight some of the next generation Kilrathi fighters? That would be neat to see how the old Confed ships do against the...

    New outlander.solsector.net look

    This movie looks awesome and your website looks pretty sharp too. Thanks for posting those trailers and I look forward to a US release.

    WC:CD "Firekkan Fighter"

    That definitely looks a bit alien and at the same time, it looks at home next to the Vampire since they both have similar engine/wing setups. Nice job! It looks a bit more fragile than the first fighter, so I might imagine it being more fast and maneuverable with weaker shielding and armor...

    Thoughts (spoilers)

    Yeah for yellow! It's hard to remember which all areas changed, but it definitely looks like you guys are moving forward and checking things off. Nice work team, keep it up!

    Wing Commander 3: Cockpit or no cockpit?

    I like cockpits only if they fit in with the game graphics. My first Wing Commander experience was WCIII. I remember how annoyed I was with the cockpit being up; I turned it off as quick as I could. I recall something had a white tint to it (probably the pilot legs and stick) that didn't...

    WC:CD "Firekkan Fighter"

    I think referring the "Freedom Flight" book would be a good way to reference how they sit. I don't remember how they sat, but a 'perched' position could make sense. Also, if we look at how Firekkans are naturally inclined to fly, they could be laying on their stomach with their heads looking...

    WC:CD "Firekkan Fighter"

    Perhaps making a fighter look like a bird is a bad idea. I still wonder what it might look like to have wings that are more forward. A lot of fighters look similar to our earth jets, but none have a forward 'wing' shape more similar to propeller craft that I can think of other than the Wasp...
