I'm a little confused. What mission are you talking about? I assume you're talking about right before you land on Earth. I had it on Nightmare last week and he still wasn't a problem. He did a pass, got behind me, cloacked... and then I just shot at him while cloaked. Probably the easiest...

Speaking of Wingmen and AI, I'm pretty sure I've been slugged at more than a few times from some overagressive friendly fire! =)

P-64 Ferret! Those two mass drivers could be deadly as they zoom all around larger, slower fighters! My favorite missions in WC2 involved one of those.

Gives me back my best memories of Privateer AND TradeWars2000! ;) Amazing work.

Thank you both! I'll look into Daemon tools.

Sure, WCIV with the Windows 95 patch and compatability mode will work. But is it worth it to setup a DosBox install instead? I loved Privateer on DosBox, so I'm somewhat familiar with it. I wish I could load the whole disc into RAM instead of waiting for optical drive spin-ups! Anyway...

Maniac, Primate, Vagabond. Maniac can be crazy and take out loads of fighters and rack up kills, and Primate will be a great marksman, and Vagabond will follow orders.

Sort of funny, but mostly negative. Is there a REAL guide to making fan projects? Or "If you need a guide, you don't need to make a fun project" - which may be true. But people who hastily try to start a project they have no hope in completeing won't get the point of this humor, though...

In game... I was just playing Remake, and the barkeep *never* uses "Militia", always InSys, and if I remember right, the original never had the barkeep say InSys. In the game, when he talked about InSys patrols, it meant "Militia" blips. Or maybe the original had the barkeep say "Militia"?

I think the "bumblebee" comment is something I relate to. Playing the game it just seemed to jumpy, like I was playing TIE-Fighter or something. I think just the "feel" of the game can be tweaked, not talking about being more realistic, or less realitic, but just closer to a WC game (AND...

Well... are we SURE ISS and Militia aren't, just, talking about the same thing? Remember, ISS had jobs against pirates in WC 2, that's most of what the cut scene chatter was like. That's what the "Militia" does in Privateer. They are both policing. And a militia unit would respond...

Idiots. Grow a brain for your own.

It should be noted that, unlike European Navies, the first ship in a class to be authorized by the US Congress is the class leader (class name ship), regardless of the order in which it is laid down, launched or commissioned. For example, contrary to many European texts, USS Colorado BB-45...

Whatever.

At two dollars a-muther-fucking-gallon of gasoline, I could care less about space. Use this damn technology elsewhere... You know we'd just fuck space up too.

Re: Tiger's Claw Hahaha. No, it doesn't. Not practical...in today's millitary or the future..

You mean.. remembering them from a book you were lucky to come across and spewing it out. Anyway, does this book have a picture of the Bengel in it? I'd like to see if it looks like.... the movie... Bengel.... ...

Waiting for NASA to do what? What is there to gain to go farther into the solar system right now.. or develop a facility on the moon? Aren't there more.. pressing matters here on terra firma?

Easy enough. Remember ships are not given hull number and names when they are completed.. Names are assigned to hull numbers. Hull numbers do not nessesarily mean the order they were completed. Yard problems.. material requisition problems, priority shifts.. could have held up the...

Bengal class wasn't pre-war LOAF..
